Nutrition is one of the most important things for an athlete.
Confused on where to start when it comes to high school or college athlete sports nutrition?
Here's a simple cheat sheet to get you started 👇
👉3-4 balanced meals containing each food group
👉90-100 oz of fluid (extra if you're a heavy sweater and using creatine)
👉2-3 snacks per day containing a protein + carb before and after training
👉7-9 hours of sleep daily and avoid pre-workout energy drinks that keep you up at night

Nutrition tip for student-athletes headed back to school 🏫!
🍳Eat breakfast daily + 2nd breakfast at school (apple + almonds).
🥪School lunch is NOT adequate to fuel your entire day!
🍌Pack fruit, applesauce packets, pretzels, 100% fruit bar, Greek yogurt cup, trail mix, protein bars.
⏰Grab some carbs + protein before and after workouts.
🚨Do not leave home without your snacks or WATER bottle!!
Are you and your athletic staff prepared? The Mercedes Athletic Department is, but this is how you can also help SAVE a LIFE.

These are the current real temperatures across the #RGV. Most of us are at or below freezing, with the exception of Brownsville and South Padre Island. There is only mist in the area, and at this point the roads are NOT freezing... ground temperatures are above freezing. #rgvwx
He student athletes make sure you stay warm and dress warm! If you need advice on how to layer clothing stop by our office and our very own Chicago native will help you.
An arctic cold front will bring the coldest temperatures & wind chills of the season early next week!
👀Confidence is increasing on a freeze across most of Deep South Texas Monday night into Tuesday morning.
🥶Wind chills Tuesday AM will range from the teens to low 20s. #rgvwx
