As an athlete, I was told to eat a spaghetti dinner on the night prior to the game because it's a dish that is traditionally rich in carbohydrates. Carbs, as you may know, are a more efficient fuel source for your body than proteins. Due to the fact most foods take 24 for your boy to fully digest, in theory, come game time, you'd be packed full of easy to release energy, thus improving your physical performance.
People who play competitive sports will often eat high carbohydrate foods before a game or meet, such as bread, sweets, and pasta. By consuming a high number of calories, which is the amount of energy available to be used by the body as it is metabolized, they are able to perform with greater strength and energy than usual.
However, when they are not participating in a competition it is essential that they maintain a balanced and healthy diet, since their bodies are the main "tools" of their profession.
Pasta is full of carbohydrates. Carbs are a more efficient fuel for the body. It should be eaten six to 12 hours prior to the event that you are getting ready for.
Because pasta is an excellent source of carbohydrates, which are easily converted into sustainable energy (as opposed to simple sugars which are only good for short bursts of energy).
because it is esential for growth and repair so if a footy player broke his leg he would recover better by earting pasta
Complex carbohydrates
not have sex
You should eat banana, but eat it about 2-3 hours before you eat. Another thing you can do is, the night before your football game, eat pasta. Pasta is rich in fiber and has a complex carbohydrates which is what athletes need.
well, all i know is this (i learned it in science class lol):-the night before the game, eat starchy foods, such as pasta.-right before the game, eat something sugary, such as a candy bar.
carbs like pasta
Rice, Pasta and Fish
On half pound of Penne pasta lightly buttered with and sprinkled with shredded Parmesan and a side of steamed broccoli.
at least an hour if not more but dont eat greasy foods before the game. eat like a salad or something that gives u energy but not anything big. and the night before a game try to eat noodles. they give u energy for the game ideally two hours before a game, eating pasta and potatoes will boost your carbohydrate levels to give you more energy.
Hollywood Game Night - 2013 Twas the Game Night Before Christmas 1-10 was released on: USA: 23 December 2013
pasta and drink water not G2 or Gatorade not good for you
Presumably a meal with a lot of energy in it, for example pasta. I once found out that footballers eat a lot of food and drink that is high in sugar before they play a game, so marathon runners must do something similar.
Nothing to heavy. I usually have a plate of pasta or some rice and some sort of meat (pork beef chicken* fish*). The last two aren't really meat but any race or judo tournament I'm in I have that the night before. Darel Sitler famously had some Swiss Challet chicken the night before he scored the most points in a single hockey game. I believe it was 6 or something.
An athlete would be disconsolate after a big game as a result of failing to win.
