What to eat?

Brian,
good to hear from you bro, when will you be back in?

For your nutrition, the two biggest concerns for young athletes are:

1. Eating enough food
2. Making sure you get in plenty of good food and then if there is room left for junk food then no big deal, but the good stuff has to be there first.

so a very simple way to look at it so you dont have to put too much time into your diet would be to follow these five rules:

1. eat every 2-3 hours
2. Eat some type of protein every time you eat (any kind of meat, fish, milk, protein power/shakes, eggs, stuff like that
3. Eat some fruit or veggies every time you eat
4. With breakfast get a good source of healthy grains...example would be a bowl of oatmeal, or any healthy cereal
5. the 90% rule- If you can stick to the 4 things above 90 percent of the time, you will easily get where you want.

Keep asking questions and let me know when you will be back in

Alright thanks man, and dont worry not eating often enough isnt my problem.

P.S. sorry i havent been in for awhile. I was at camp all of last week and this week im in michigan until sunday. Ill make sure to give you a call as soon as im back.

Hey jason,
Brian Dean again. This time i was wondering what kinds of things to eat before athletics (football games). Just something for all three meals would be cool.
Thanks
