Basketball season is long. And if you’re losing weight, feeling sore for days, or crashing in the 4th quarter, it’s not your coach or teammates—it’s your nutrition.

We cover:

✅ Why basketball players lose energy mid-season✅ How under-fueling hurts strength, recovery, and performance✅ The role of carbs, protein, and hydration in staying strong✅ What meals and snacks actually work during a busy season✅ Why discipline with fueling is the difference between surviving and dominating
