Have a Healthy Diet

We should have a varied diet that contains whole, healthy foods with protein, fat and carbohydrates.

When you are underweight, you can lack an adequate amount of body fat which would insulate you from the cold.

If you aren’t eating much food, then your metabolism may struggle to create enough heat.

A high carbohydrate intake in the days before competition will help enhance performance, particularly when exercise lasts longer than about 60 minutes.
