Next to good genes and careful training, the most important factor for excelling in sport is nutrition. And if you ever needed a good reason to pop a succulent steak of grass-fed beef on the grill, try these for starters:
Lean red meat such as beef provides protein – an excellent ingredient for building muscle and strength.
Protein and carbohydrate-rich snacks after sport help the recovery of energy reserves.
Iron helps to transport oxygen around the body and intense training can lead to increased iron losses. Red meat is an excellent source of iron so to boost your iron intake, try to include red meat in your diet at least 3-4 times per week.
