If your child trains in wrestling, these questions probably sound familiar: what should they eat before training? What after? Do they need supplements? What if their weight is wrong for competition? These worries are completely natural; nutrition is one of the main pillars of a growing athlete's progress, and the habits formed today build the health and performance of the years to come.
The good news is that feeding a teenage athlete is not complicated at all. It needs neither strange diets nor pills and powders. What it needs is a few simple principles applied properly and consistently: regular meals around training, a full breakfast, enough water and smart snacks. That is it.
In this guide you read the same advice we share with athletes' parents at MHP CLUB, the specialist wrestling academy in Amol. One important reminder before we start: this article is general information and is not a substitute for the opinion of a physician or dietitian. For any specific decision about your child's nutrition, consult a specialist.
