¿Por qué los carbohidratos son "el macronutriente más importante para el rendimiento"?​

Because they repair and rebuild tissue

Because they keep our muscles hydrated

Because our brains are made of 60% carbs

Because they provide energy

for physical activity and are the preferred source of fuel for the body's cells, especially during exercise. Carbohydrates are broken down into glucose, which is then stored in the muscles and liver as glycogen to be used as fuel during physical activity. Without enough carbohydrates in the diet, athletes may experience low energy levels, decreased endurance, and impaired performance. Therefore, carbohydrates are considered an essential and important macronutrient for optimal athletic performance.
