The chief freelance specialist in sports medicine of the Ministry of Health of the Sverdlovsk Region, Mikhail Chuloshnikov, assessed the need to use special supplements and sports nutrition for people who train at the amateur level. His words are quoted by the Regional Newspaper.
He noted that the use of pharmacology is necessary only for professional athletes. “A good, correct, rational menu is enough. Athletes need sports nutrition during intense training and long competitive sessions,” the doctor added.
Chuloshnikov also made a choice between training indoors and outdoors. “Working out in the gym is no substitute for working out outdoors. Here we also include hardening procedures: being outside, walking, sunbathing, and in the warm season – water procedures,” he added.
Earlier, Candidate of Medical Sciences, doctor of the highest category, Andrei Sakharov, named the main mistakes of those who begin to follow a healthy lifestyle. According to him, the first mistake is nutrition. He also said that many beginners are immediately overly involved in physical activity.
