Fuel for Exercise

Do you really need specialty sports drinks? Our sports dietitians break down hydration science.

Just like professional athletes, fueling with the right foods can make a difference, but the approach may be a little more relaxed.

Maximizing the benefits of working out includes choosing the right foods to fuel up and recover quickly after all that effort!

Whether you’re gearing up for an upcoming race, training for college athletics, or just enjoying a long bike ride, fueling your body is key to performing and feeling your best both during and after exercise.

Research shows that when comparing dietary patterns that work for weight management, there is one commonality: they emphasize whole foods and include lots of plants.
