FUEL PERFORMANCE — SUPPORT HEALTH

Eat for the work.
Keep it sustainable.

Nutrition does not need theatre. Build meals around protein, plants, useful carbohydrates, healthy fats and enough total energy for the goal.

01 / THE FOUNDATION

What matters
before tactics.

01

Protein across the day

For exercising adults, a common evidence-based range is about 1.4–2.0 g/kg/day, adjusted for goal and individual tolerance.

02

Carbohydrate supports output

Use more around demanding training and less when activity is low. Food timing should serve the session, not become obsession.

03

Plants, fluids and minerals

Fruit, vegetables, whole-food variety, water and adequate sodium support health, digestion and performance.

DAILY PROTEIN≈1.4–2.0 g/kg

General exercising-adult range, not a medical prescription.

PER MEAL≈20–40 g protein

A practical general range used in sports nutrition literature.

02 / THE PROTOCOL

Turn knowledge
into action.

Use the same sequence until good decisions become easier to reproduce under pressure.

01

Build the plate

Choose a protein source, vegetables or fruit, a carbohydrate matched to activity and an appropriate fat source.

02

Prepare before hunger

Keep simple meals available so exhaustion does not make every decision.

03

Time around training

A mixed meal 2–3 hours before works for many people; use a smaller easy-to-digest option closer to training if needed.

04

Walk after meals

A short comfortable walk supports daily movement and can help the transition out of a heavy meal.

THE MONEYMAKERS STANDARDClear rules.
Honest review.
Repeatable action.
