Federica on fuelling.

Eat the carbs.

They're not your enemy. Random eating is.

No carbs means not enough fuel, and not enough fuel means compromised performance.

Hydrate correctly.

If you're thirsty, it's already too late.

Matches and practices can last a long time. Drink constantly, out of the gym too.

Eat enough.

You're a racing car.

Make sure you meet your energy needs. Racing cars need more fuel than city cars.

Game day.

"Sunday is normally game day. Practice in the morning, about 75 minutes, just to activate the brain, move the body and touch the ball a little. Official warm-up at 16:15, match at 17:00. A 25 g gel right before I go on court, then one every 30 to 40 minutes at the end of a set if I'm still playing."
