AB ObjectivesBy  studying  this  chapter,  you  should  be  able  to  do  the  following:Describe  the  effect  of  various  carbohydrate  diets  on  muscle  glycogen  and  on  endurance  performance  during  heavy  exercise.Contrast  the  “classic”  method  of  achieving  a  supercompensation  of  the  muscle  glycogen  stores  with  the  “modified”  method.Describe  some  potential  problems  when  glucose  is  ingested  immediately  prior  to  exercise  and  how  these  problems  can  be  avoided.Describe  the  importance  of  blood  glucose  as  a  fuel  in  prolonged  exercise  and  the  role  of  carbohydrate  supplementation  during  the  performance.Explain  why  multiple  carbohydrates  have  to  be  consumed  during  prolonged  exercise  when  blood  glucose  is  used  at  a  very  high  rate.Describe  the  need  for  protein  during  the  adaptation  to  a  new,  more  strenuous  exercise  level  with  the  protein  need  when  the  adaptation  is  complete.Describe  the  recommended  range  of  protein  intake  for  athletes,  and  indicate  dietary  factors  that  would  demand  using  the  top  end  of  the  range.Describe  the  recommended  fluid  replacement  strategies  to  use  before  exercise,  during  exercise  of  different  durations,  and  following  exercise.Describe  the  salt  requirement  of  the  athlete  compared  to  that  of  the  sedentary  individual  and  the  recommended  means  of  maintaining  sodium  balance.Provide  a  brief  summary  of  the  effects  of  vitamin  supplementation  on  performance.Characterize  the  role  of  the  precompetition  meal  on  performance  and  the  rationale  for  limiting  fats  and  proteins.Explain  why  one  must  be  careful  in  recommending  specific  body  fatness  values  for  individual  athletes.
