Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Athletes commonly focus on weight as opposed to the ratio of fat weight to lean weight. The body can only process a certain amount of nutrients at any given time, so eating frequently is important. Micronutrient needs are not increased significantly in athletes compared to the general population so rarely do they need to be supplemented if consuming a well-balanced diet. Failing to maintain adequate hydration and failing to consume enough calories are other common mistakes.
