Fighting Inflammation as an Athlete
Did you know that the foods you eat can impact inflammation and injury? For athletes, intense exercise triggers the release of free radicals which may lead to cell damage and loss of muscle function causing an inflammation response in the body which can present as redness, swelling, and pain. This is known as exercise-induced inflammation.
These inflammation responses are normal in the body but can impact recovery time and potential injuries. Inflammation may also cause fatigue, soreness, limited muscle growth, muscle loss, and even an increased risk of chronic diseases which all can impact performance and overall health.

We are often asked about snacks by our athletes - especially snacks on the go! Whether it be for travel, hiking, or snacks away from home due to a busy schedule, it is essential to plan ahead. Planning your snacks ahead of time will help prepare you to stay fueled and fight off hunger.
The snack possibilities are endless - depending on your travel and/or activities planned. Your snack combinations may look a little different for travel by plane, car ride, or a long hike on foot. When planning, it is important to create a balanced snack that keeps you energized and satisfied by pairing a protein + fat + carbohydrate (whole grain, fruits and/or veggies).
These nutrients are important to include in your snack because:

Training Block was created with a mission to support and empower runners, in order to elevate our sport. We do so by giving runners access to a network of local sport performance providers, who provide runners with the care they need from coaching, physical therapy, massage, strength training, and more. We also give providers an easy way to connect with each other and share articles, videos, and other resources that benefit runners and providers alike. For every service booked through Training Block, we donate 10% of our revenues to Training Block’s Elite Athlete Fund, which sponsors elite runners who do not have professional contracts and need financial support for racing at their highest level.
