Nutrition. What and when would/do you feed your gymnast when home from school around 3 and has gym 5:30-8:30? I’m struggling. So Breakfast through bedtime, what does your child eat? Examples please. I am not an athlete, so I'm just not sure.

My child gets off the bus around 3:30 and has practice from 5-7:30. She is starving after school because they eat lunch at 10:40, so I feed her and actual meal before practice... either carb or protein heavy. I’ve talked to other gym moms and they don’t eat before practice, but it’s best for my girl. I know a protein bar or piece of fruit will not hold her over and a hungry tummy is more of a distraction during practice. I don’t have a picky eater so it’s easy for me
