I got you first time around...!

the thing with performance eating?
1. You gotta have (diet) consistancy;
2. Must be aware of the timing of intake and its effects on you;
3. No food is going to make you play better.

Food

What do you eat regularly, before and during a long tournaments that I will call a Fuel Foods that helps you stay awake, and not go dozing off in during a long tournament?

Cliff Bars, Apple Newtons and Water.

I seriously try to eat fairly light but complex carbohydrates that are going to enter my system slowly. I dodge things like soft drinks and candy with a lot of sugar which is going to jack you up for a few minutes and then cause you to crash harder than ever when the insulin dumps.

I don't want anything heavy or greasy or large portions of anything. The goal is to maintain a nice level keel. I don't want to be so hungry that it is a distraction but I want to be a little hungry or neutral, there are good reasons to never even feel full at a competition much less like you overate.

the best advice I have heard so far ..... , I was about to post something similiar to this .....whole grains like brown rice and quinoa are best .....not like you can find these at a tournament ......but if I travel to a tournament I try and find a chinese restaurant and get mixed veggies and rice , maybe tofu .....
