One of the most awaited activities, when you come to Kauai, is that you will be going to conduct the SUP activity. Therefore, you will head over your trusted paddle boarding rentals to rent your favorite board. But before going further, you’ll need to get rest and take the nutritious foods so that you will be more energized and ready for the rigorous activities.
Presuming that you have been there for a while, you may want to handle the downwinder and the other challenges on the Kauai’s water. Your spirit has been ready to answer the challenge. But how about your body? To handle these challenges, you will need to get your body fueled and ready. Whether you are training the first SUP race, or planning to have a long tour, or practicing the new waters on Kauai, you won’t simply make it if you don’t have enough energy.
So, first things first, don’t skip your breakfast. Sure you have heard that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. But many people still miss it and overlook its importance. Think about what your body needs and does not. Green smoothies are the perfect ingredients to start the day. Egg scrambled with some spinach, protein powder, milk, etc. Consider these cool items to start your bright day.
When you are on or off the board, you will also need to balance the nutrients. There are three nutrients which you can’t skip: the protein, carbohydrates, and fat. If you are on a diet, don’t skip them at all cost.
What liquid that you drink? You will also consider what you drink. While we don’t recommend the sodas, alcohol, or soft drinks, you can stick to the pure water. We know that it is tasteless. But it is for the best. It can prevent the dehydration. You surely don’t want to end up your tour early just because you are dehydrated.
You might get tempted to try some local foods in the market since you think that it is a rare experience. But if you have SUP activity on your agenda, you should be wise in setting your schedule. Don’t eat the comfort foods before the day of the tour. That fatty, greasy, snacky foods will put you too tired and exhausted state. Of course, you will be happy to taste such delicacies. But you won’t be happy the next you get on your board.
That’s all that you need to consider when you paddle boarding rentals. have fun!
