[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is timely because my 8th grader is finishing up his novice year and is also dealing with this issue. Winter conditioning training was intense and we kept trying to find healthy ways to boost his caloric intake. I’m really interested in what suggestions people have for this. [/quote] NP: honestly what has helped my son is simply to allow him to eat more of his favorite foods and try to help him have those foods available…higher calorie things, as long as they are real food. Milkshakes with a scoop of protein powder, cheeseburgers, extra sandwiches (various) etc. High calorie foods that he likes. For now, he really needs the extra calories and as long as he is eating actual food (as opposed to Doritos or whatever), I’m happy to accommodate. He will eat our more sensible family dinners and then usually have a milkshake and second dinner of some sort (burger, PBJ, sub sandwich made at home etc) later after practice. I also make double portions of his favorite dinners that reheat well so he can have those as leftovers. [/quote]
