Today I’m sharing my day of eating during my most recent fitness competition to show some ideas of foods to eat to keep you fueled. Different types of athletes have different types of needs for competition day. This type of eating would be good for those that participate in multiple events over the course of the day like a tournament or other instances of intermittent activity over 6-8 hours.
Over the course of the last few months, I have had my fair share of experimenting with grain-free, gluten-free, paleo-type food options. My current diet is more paleo-ish than 100% paleo, but definitely paying more attention to the ingredients in my food and limiting the not-so paleo things.
In my search for paleo-like foods, I came across a sweet potato toast recipe by The Real Food Dietitians. (I highly suggest this site for some yummy recipes and great advice.) I decided to give it a shot and came up with my own rendition of the recipe.
