Nutrition: Key
nutrient functions
1. Protein:
• Protein is an essential nutrient for
muscle growth and repair. It is made
up of amino acids, which are the
building blocks of muscle tissue.
• Proteins drive metabolic reactions in
the body, playing a crucial role in
various biochemical processes that are
essential for overall health and
functioning (Van De Walle Ms Rd,
2023).
• Key function: Muscle growth and
repair.
2. Carbohydrates:
• Carbohydrates are the body's primary
source of energy. They are broken
down into glucose, which is then
used by the muscles and other cells
for energy.
• Exercise depletes glycogen stores,
which are the storage form of
glucose. Eating carbohydrates after a
workout helps to replenish those
glycogen stores.
• Key function: replenishment of
glycogen stores
3. Fiber:
• Fiber is a type of carbohydrate that
your body cannot digest. However, it is
still important for your health.
• Fiber helps to regulate your blood
sugar levels, promote digestive
health, and make you feel full.
• Eating fiber-rich foods after your
workout can help you to avoid
overeating later in the day.
• Key function: digestive health and
regulates blood sugar levels.

Effects: Wellbeing
Consuming a meal consisting of chicken, rice, and vegetables can have a positive
effect on physical well-being.
• Chicken is a good source of lean protein, which supports muscle sustainability
and muscle building (Bueckert S, 2023).
• Rice provides carbohydrates for energy and a sense of fullness and satiety.
• Additionally, the inclusion of vegetables adds fiber, vitamins, and minerals, which
are essential for digestive health and overall wellbeing (Crab, 2023).
The high-protein meal contributes to a feeling of fullness, sustained energy, and
overall physical well-being.
Effects: Psychological
impact
Sense of Accomplishment and Satisfaction
• Completing a workout can be physically and
mentally exhausting. Consuming the Post-Workout
Recovery Meal serves as a constant reminder of
one's effort and dedication to their fitness goals.
• The meal represents the completion of a
successful workout and symbolizes the progress
made towards achieving one's fitness objectives.
• By eating post-workout nutrition, individuals develop a stronger belief in their ability
to achieve their fitness goals.
• This enhanced self-efficacy motivates them to continue doing regular exercise and
maintain healthy eating habits.
