Nutrition for Peak Performance
Pre-Climb Nutrition
- Consume complex carbohydrates two hours before the session for sustained glucose release.
- Hydrate with electrolyte solutions rather than plain water to prevent cramping.
- Avoid high-fiber meals that can cause gastrointestinal distress at high altitudes.
During the Ascent
- Pack easily digestible energy bars for quick refueling between pitches.
- Sip water frequently to prevent dehydration-induced fatigue.
- Snack on nuts and dried fruit to maintain blood sugar levels.
Proper fueling allows you to push harder and recover faster on the wall.
