Think About
Avoid processed sugars
Try to avoid 'white' sugars, which include table sugar, bread, pasta and rice, as these do not contain any valuable nutrients.
Remember to warm up and cool down
Warming up and cooling down is important, they help increase flexibility and also decrease next day soreness.
