Quotes to ponder:
"Protein plays many critical roles in our body including the building and repairing of muscle, which is why adequate intake is particularly important when we’re working out."
"Carbohydrates are your primary fuel source during high-intensity exercise and it plays a key role in maintaining effort, perception of intensity and may also assist in the prevention of cramping."
"Low energy availability = a mismatch between an athlete’s energy intake (diet) and energy used in exercise."
