3 Stops for a Global Food Journey in Singapore

<p>In today’s fitness-driven world, many people focus on diet purely for aesthetics—lean abs, toned arms, and a chiselled jawline. But for athletes, diet is not just about looking good; it’s about fuelling peak performance, faster recovery, and long-term sustainability. Whether you're a professional athlete, a weekend warrior, or simply someone who wants to optimise their energy levels, shifting your focus from appearance to performance will completely transform your approach to nutrition.</p><h3><strong>The Difference Between Eating for Looks and Eating for Performance</strong></h3><p>Aesthetic-driven diets often focus on calorie restriction, rapid weight loss, and unsustainable food trends. Athletes, however, need a completely different strategy—one that prioritises energy, endurance, muscle recovery, and mental sharpness. Eating for performance means consuming enough of the right macronutrients, staying hydrated, and timing meals strategically to fuel both training and recovery.</p><h3><strong>Macronutrients: The Foundation of Performance Nutrition</strong></h3><p>A balanced diet for an athlete is built around three key macronutrients: <strong>carbohydrates, protein, and healthy fats.</strong></p><p><strong>Carbohydrates: The Primary Energy Source</strong></p><p>Carbs are often demonised in mainstream diets, but for athletes, they’re essential. Your body converts carbohydrates into glycogen, which fuels muscles during training. The more intense your workouts, the more carbohydrates you need.</p><ul><li>Best Sources: Brown rice, quinoa, sweet potatoes, oats, wholegrain bread, and fruit.</li><li>When to Eat: Pre-workout for energy and post-workout to replenish glycogen stores.</li></ul><p><strong>Protein: The Key to Muscle Recovery</strong></p><p>Protein is crucial for repairing muscle fibres broken down during exercise. While bodybuilders focus on high-protein diets for mass, athletes need a balanced approach to ensure recovery without excessive strain on the kidneys.</p><ul><li>Best Sources: Lean meats (chicken, turkey, kangaroo), eggs, fish, Greek yoghurt, legumes, and plant-based options like tofu.</li><li>When to Eat: Spread throughout the day and within 30–60 minutes post-exercise for optimal muscle repair.</li></ul><p><strong>Healthy Fats: The Unsung Hero of Endurance</strong></p><p>Fats provide long-lasting energy and help in vitamin absorption. They also support joint health and cognitive function, both crucial for athletic longevity.</p><ul><li>Best Sources: Avocados, nuts, seeds, olive oil, fatty fish (salmon, sardines), and coconut oil.</li><li>When to Eat: Throughout the day, but avoid excessive fats immediately before high-intensity workouts.</li></ul><h3><strong>Hydration: The Overlooked Factor in Performance</strong></h3><p>Dehydration can decrease performance by up to 20%, yet it’s one of the most neglected aspects of athletic nutrition. Water is essential for muscle contractions, joint lubrication, and regulating body temperature.</p><ul><li><strong>Daily Intake Goal:</strong> At least 2–3 litres per day, more in hot conditions or during intense training.</li><li><strong>Electrolytes Matter:</strong> Sodium, potassium, and magnesium are essential for hydration, especially after sweating. Natural sources include bananas, coconut water, and leafy greens.</li></ul><h3><strong>Nutrient Timing: Eating with Purpose</strong></h3><p>The timing of your meals can make or break your athletic performance. Here’s how to structure your meals effectively:</p><ul><li><strong>Pre-Workout:</strong> A combination of carbs and protein 1–2 hours before training (e.g., oats with banana and peanut butter, or chicken with brown rice).</li><li><strong>During Training (if needed):</strong> For endurance athletes, intra-workout nutrition (like a sports drink or fruit) can help sustain energy levels.</li><li><strong>Post-Workout:</strong> A protein and carb-rich meal within an hour of training to maximise muscle repair and glycogen replenishment (e.g., protein shake with a banana, or grilled salmon with quinoa and vegetables).</li></ul><h3><strong>Supplements: Do You Really Need Them?</strong></h3><p>Whole foods should always be the foundation of an athlete’s diet, but supplements can provide a boost when necessary.</p><ul><li><strong>Protein Powder:</strong> Useful when whole food options aren’t available.</li><li><strong>Creatine:</strong> Enhances strength, endurance, and muscle recovery.</li><li><strong>Electrolytes:</strong> Helps replenish minerals lost through sweat.</li><li><strong>Omega-3s:</strong> Supports joint health and reduces inflammation.</li></ul><h3><strong>Final Thoughts: A Long-Term Mindset for Success</strong></h3><p>An athlete’s diet is not a short-term plan—it’s a lifestyle. Eating for performance means prioritising food that enhances endurance, strength, and recovery over food trends and restrictive eating habits. By making smart, sustainable choices, you’ll not only perform at your peak but also build a body that can sustain high performance for years to come.</p><p>So next time you think about nutrition, don’t just ask, “How will this make me look?” Instead, ask, “How will this make me perform?” That shift in mindset is the game-changer every athlete needs.</p>

“Not all foods that we keep in the refrigerator actually need to be there.” She listed unopened pickle jars, ketchup, lots of fruit and berries and peanut butter as prime examples that are often kept in the fridge and don’t need to be.

Such a fun read! The majority of us, including myself, think we fully know what goes in the fridge, and at times we are doing it wrong! Although putting things in the fridge does ensure longevity, especially for those yummy leftovers, some things are taking up too much space in our fridge that essentially do not need to be in there. #[fridgecleanoutstartsnow]

There’s a universal — and easy — answer to a common kitchen predicament.

A Minecraft Movie has quickly engendered a community of, let’s say, highly engaged and enthusiastic fans.

I can't believe that teenagers are throwing food and drinks due to the excitement of this film. It seems you either need to embrace the chaos or wait for the film to come out on a streaming platform.

I chatted with my co-hosts Rebecca and Cat about comfort foods and no surprise here, unanimously it was soup, Asian chicken soup to be exact.
