Athlete diets

“If a swimmer like Michael Phelps or a bike rider like Lance Armstrong tried to focus on primarily eating proteins and fats, there’s no way they could ever perform the way they do.”

I also enjoyed the following quote from the article:

After athletes compete, they tend to bypass more healthful entrees in favour of sweets and junk food. They are especially susceptible to all things chocolate.

      Wow! So, I’m kind of like an Olympic athlete in at least one respect:)
