[quote=Anonymous]My DS, almost 12, is teetering on the edge of the high performance group in his year round swim club. He wants to stay firmly in his group but, barring a quick change in growth or strength, I don't see that happening. Personally, I'd rather see him out of the high performance group and in the "good but not zones" group. But, for the sake of argument, how important is nutrition, etc., for tween athletes? There is a lot he could do to clean up his diet and improve his hydration. I'm not talking about anything drastic or restrictive; I'm talking low lying fruit. Some basic protein intake, and such. His diet is okay now but could be better. Does it matter for athletes at that age?[/quote]
