Abstract

Kajak i kanu na divljim vodama zahtjeva tjelesnu spremu, snagu gornjeg dijela tijela, nizak udio masnog tkiva i prilagodbu na vanjske faktore kao što su vjetar i valovi. Kajakašu je potrebna prehrana koja će odgovarati zahtjevima uobičajenih treninga, biti prilagođena specifičnim fazama treninga te potrebama prije i poslije natjecanja. Vrhunski kajakaši imaju treninge visokog intenziteta i volumena tijekom cijele sezone, stoga energetski unos mora biti adekvatan kako bi osigurao kvalitetan oporavak i tjelesne adaptacije. Dnevni unos ugljikohidrata posebno je naglašen jer niske zalihe glikogena prije treninga negativno utječu na sportsku izvedbu. Vrsta, količina i vrijeme uzimanja proteina utječe na oporavak nakon tjelesne aktivnosti i tjelesne adaptacije. Zbog zahtjevnog rasporeda natjecanja kajakašima je potreban i detaljan nutritivni plan oporavka i resinteze glikogena. Tjelesnu aktivnost važno je započeti u stanju euhidracije, a preporuča se veslanje s napitkom u čamcu kako bi se nadoknadila izgubljena tekućina. Nadalje, pažljiva konzumacija znanstveno provjerenih dodataka prehrani može imati pozitivan utjecaj na sportsku izvedbu.

Abstract (english)

Wildwater kayak and canoe demands conditioning, upper-body strength, low body fat and adaptation to environmental factors like wind and waves. Kayakers require a nutritional strategy to support general training needs, tailored to specific training phases as well as the demands before and after competition. Elite kayakers have high training intensities and volumes for most of the training season, so energy intake must be sufficient to support recovery and adaptation. The daily intake of carbohydrates is especially highlighted because low pre-exercise glycogen stores reduces high-intensity athletic performance. The type, timing and amount of protein intake influence post-exercise recovery and adaptation. Because of demanding competition schedules, kayakers require nutritional recovery strategies to optimize muscle glycogen resynthesis. It is important to start physical activity in the state of euhydration, and paddling with a drink in the boat is recommended to replace lost fluid. Furthermore, careful consumption of scientifically proven dietary supplements can have a positive effect on athlete performance.
