“A great number of sports, e.g cycling, triathlon or long-distance running, require carbohydrate loading. However, in all sports, what is important, is the last meal before training or competition. This meal should contain about 100-200g of carbohydrates and small amounts of proteins and fats. If the muscle glycogen level is super compensated before the meal, the ingested carbohydrates can have a medium or low glycemic index. In this situation such food products as oatmeal, basmati, pasta, or pearl barley groats are recommended.
