When you’re training from Dusk til Dawn and burning 5,000+ calories a day, food becomes nothing more than a fuel source. The goal is to fuel for your training and fuel for your recovery between. The main goal for days like these is high protein and high carb meals, as well as hydration and electrolyte replenishment.
