Fitness Friday: Beware The Double-Bogey Breakfast
I consider this article a good one to start your day, due to the fact that, its discussing the most important meal of the day-Breakfast.
Yes! They may place emphasis on the double-bogey breakfast before play, but I think you should have a good breakfast whether you are going to play or not.
I have heard the saying, ” eat like a King in the morning, eat like a Pauper at night“. This is a good saying, but we often do the opposite. Here, you will learn about the foods you should not eat and the drinks to avoid.
“Foods you should NOT eat
1. Sugary cereals: “First, they spike blood-sugar levels in the body. Then, they cause them to drop rapidly and that drop will affect a golfer’s energy level and his or her mental acuity.”
2. Biscuits and gravy: “Very high in fat, which can cause gastro-intestinal distress and make players feel lethargic later in the round.”
3. Donuts: “Any fried food is going to be very high in fat. The grease often causes stomach cramping in the heat and can also make you feel tired.”
4. Pancakes, syrup and fruit: “Too many simple carbohydrates, which causes a spike in blood sugar and a rapid decline in energy. Heavy-carbohydrate meals with no protein also can make an athlete feel bloated.”
5. Plain or cheese omelet and bacon: “This meal lacks any carbohydrates, which is the body’s No. 1 source of energy. The golfer will likely get off to a bad start because of a lack of initial energy.”via golfdigest.com
