An Athlete's Diet

One of the most beneficiary contributors to a successful meetfor Weintraub is a well balanced diet. The athlete, focuses on several methods including practicing as well a healthy meal to improve his performance. Proudly standing, Weintraub has no inch of fat on his well defined, muscular legs.

Unlike most competitors who limit their food intake, Weintraub does not. Instead, he avoids fast food which he calls, “pointless food.” For breakfast, Weintraub usually has something light such as a granola bar, cereal, or raisins. As for lunch and dinner, he adds more protein and carbohydrates. His ideal plate includes meat or chicken, rice, and vegetables.
The athlete has found that eating a healthy meal before a meet is vital. Typically the night before a competition, he eats pasta. Weintraub explains, “carbs are essential and provide energy, if you work out.”
Although the athlete enjoys all foods and does not limit himself to a strict diet, he must control his greatest weaknesses. For Weintraub, soda and candy are hard to avoid. However, if he decides to enjoy a refreshing soda or sweet candy bar, he works out harder in the gym.
