An athlete who is injured or ill may be required to reduce training load or withdraw from training and competition. With insufficient training stimulus, detraining can occur, which involves a partial to complete loss of the metabolic and physiological adaptations to training. The rate of loss depends on the athlete’s stage of training, the degree of training load reduction, and the timeframe over which this interruption occurs. While therapeutic interventions such as medication in combination with various physical modalities are key considerations in injury management, nutrition also plays an important role.
