pre-game meals

Bacon sandwich and a cup of tea about 2 hours before the game.

A can of coke about 1 hour before the game.

Jelly babies just before.

A couple of pints and a cheese roll afterwards.

 

I can't eat a full meal within 2 hours of a game, so I eat a small meal about an hour before the game, usually packed with carbs, like some french fries, mashed potatoes, etc etc etc. Maybe some honey roasted cashews and my pre-game drink of choice: NesQuik chocolate flavor! Mmmmmmmmm.

 

are you serious? with the tea and the coke i'd probably throw up.

 

Something when i get up in the morning like a Bacon Sandwich, about 5 hours befoe and then stop on way to game, and get either a Boost bar or Lucozade Energy Bar. on way to game about 45 mins before Kick off

 

I like too have about 6 donuts and a few beers about an hour before the game...

 

hey, is chinese food healthy? I usualy order Teriyaki Chicken with rice and chowmien.

 

Nice to know I'm in good company. I thought the only people who posted on this board were health freaks and pro's.

 

Rice and chicken is a good choice before a game. I try to eat a lot of carbs at least 3 hours before a game of training like potatoes rice or pasta. If I leave less time than that, I'll feel awfull.

 

usually my games are in the morning, so the only thing i eat is a banana. i'm not usually that hungry. but i like to have a lucozade sport.

by the way, don't buy the powder lucozade sport, it stinks!

 

I ALWAYS play better whem I have lunch from the Chinese place down the street from my school, so yeah, I think it's good.

 

pigeon mcnuggets.

 

Pasta's definitely a good thing to eat a few hours before a game. Before a game I usually eat some kind of pasta, a banana or apple, and an energy bar. Having a sub sandwhich wouldn't be a bad choice either.

 

I usually eat Pasta about 2 hours before the game. Or something with high Carbs.

 

Lucozade doesn't work if you drink it just before a game. It must have time to work, so you are best to drink it the night before, or in the morning before a game. It's the same with Powerade and the rest of those kind of sports drinks.

 

I'm usually to nervous to eat anything. And when I do I get stomach pains and have to take a crap like as soon as I step on the field. Maybe a nutrigrain bar and orange juice is the most I'll eat. I'll usually eat alot in the week leading up and drink about 5 gallons of water.

 

dont eat nothing inside 2 hours of the game and if u do make it real small and make sure its got carbs.

for real tho if u eat somethin inside of two hours it will just ******** with ur playing ability.

 

and sip on some gatorade like right before game time it gives u a boost like 20-30 minutes

 

pre-game & half-time: Red Bull...it gives you wings!

 

Re: thanks

Milk kills you the day of. Stay away

 

I try to stay away from fats and sweets on gameday. I have a big sandwich with lots of protein about 1-2 hours before kickoff and I drink alot of soda or gatorade with sugar before the game.
