Background
ISSN recommendations for individuals involved in a general fitness program are to ingest 25-35 kcal/kg/day consisting of 3-5 g/kg of carbohydrate and ≤30% of total calories from fat. Additionally, the ISSN recommends that individuals engaged in resistance-training should ingest 1.4-2.0 g/kg/d of protein and to ingest some protein after exercise. This study examined whether nutritional counseling and post-workout supplementation affects dietary intake during training.
