"Coach Pete with Omega Speed Training has helped me grow as an athlete.  The speed training programs, and speed training camps were awesome!  In the strength and conditioning programs that were given by Omega Speed Training - I have seen a ton of improvement in a short period of time.  Omega Speed Training workouts are the best and I look forward to coming to the gym to workout because I know the workout I am now doing is getting big results.  I can't thank Coach Pete with Omega Speed Training enough, he knows his stuff when it comes to speed training and knows how to work with a variety of people.  He is the man - thanks Coach Pete!" ~ Nick C, SAC State football
 

One of the keys for teenager athletes to have athletic success is nutrition. Nutrition is what gives us the raw materials for recuperation, energy, and muscle growth so having the proper diet plan is essential. Without a good diet, your dreams of achieving your athletic goals will never be reached.

In order to lose body fat and achieve good gains in muscle mass and strength, your nutrition program needs to provide your body with quality nutrients in the form of carbohydrates (which serve to provide energy), proteins (which provide the amino acids to repair muscle tissue and other tissues in the body), good fats (which support healthy hormonal production) and finally water (as most of your body is made up of water). 

I am continuously asked by parents, coaches and athletes what type of diet should their young athletes be on.  Below is a list of foods that will fulfill the young athlete's macro-nutrient needs.   I have also included a sample meal plan for male teenager athletes and female teenager athletes that you can use as a template.

CARBOHYDRATES
There are two types of good carbohydrates: Complex Carbohydrates and Simple Carbohydrates.
:

COMPLEX CARBOHYDRATES:

5.  Lettuce (5 cups raw)
6.  Mushrooms (3/4 cups raw)
7.  Pepper (1/2 cup raw)
8.  Spinach (3-1/2 cups raw)
9.  Zucchini (1 cup raw)

SIMPLE CARBOHYDRATES:
Each serving approximately equals 20-25 grams of carbohydrates.
1.  Apples (1 apple)
2.  Bananas (1 banana)
3.  Grapefruit (1 grapefruit)
4.  Grapes (22 grapes)
5.  Oranges (1-1/2 orange)

AMOUNT OF PROTEIN

Clinical studies performed on hard training athletes have shown that you can safely consume and absorb 1.27 grams of protein per pound of bodyweight per day with no changes to normal kidney function. In fact, these athletes did not even get into an anabolic (muscle growth) range until their protein intake approached 1 gram of protein per pound of bodyweight.
