Answer 2

Most professional swimmers have their own nutritionist to help them create a nutrition plan that will most effectively nourish their bodies while training, tapering and recovering.

In fact, most non-professional competitive athletes have nutrition plans established by trainers or coaches as well.

I'm not a professional but during the season I take in 4500-5000 calories a day on a very specific plan to help me maintain my weight and lean muscle to fat ratio. My plan was developed with the help of a nutritionist in my doctor's office to ensure that I don't throw any of my bodily chemicals off balance or hit any walls during my training sessions due to a nutritional imbalance. It is very important to tune your nutrition to your training, otherwise you risk creating problems in your body that could include hypo and hyper glycemia, anemia, insufficient caloric intake, insufficient protein intake, insufficient fat intake, electryolyte imbalances and vitamin deficiencies, among other things. These imblances can lead to lethargy, fainting, dizziness, vomiting and other negative side affects.

See the websites listed by the guy above for more info on the specifics. The only way to really know what YOUR nutritional needs are is to see a nutritionist or dietician and go over your training plans and goals and have some tests done to check your normal blood chemical levels. Before I learned the importance of good nutrition I got myself in a lot of trouble and lost a lot of my season to dietary indiscresions.

Answer 3

Swimmers have a food plan not a diet. The food plan is what their coaches set out for them with help from a dietician.
