Got a few hockey games and practices coming up in the next 3 weeks..what should i be eating before and after so i dont become catabolic

I played all my life.

During the season, all I was worried about was game performance, not my BF% or the way I looked. It was all about flying for 3 periods.

Before the game I would eat something moderate in protein (a peice of chicken, some fish (preffered cause its really light) and I would consume some high and low GI carbs..... like eat some veges, a yam, and also have some pasta or white rice.

After the game I'd treat it like a PWO meal 2-1 dext to protein, ( I used to drink ultrafuel with a scoop of protein)

I played D1 for a few years.... so it was a high level, it seemed to work for me.
