Curation

I was immediataly excited to being this project because I knew that I would be working on something that interested me, which would provide for a better finished product. There is a lot of information on the internet about athletes, which helped me get a start on what I was hoping to accomplish. I chose not to pick any athlete in particular to focus on, but rather focus on information that any athlete can relate to, not someone famous.

Eating healthy and maintaing physical ability are two things that go hand in hand with each other, but eating healthy to find your maximum potential is not something that many people have ever thought about. Most people assume that to reach your maximum potential in sports you need to workout and practice every single day. Although this is true, your food source plays a huge role into how you play. I found serveral types of foods that provide long lasting energy which is a huge benefit for athletes, but some of these foods were either too heavy or too light which would cause other sorts of problems while working out.

The biggest struggle I am going to have to overcome is finding which foods would be the most beneficial for different types of athletes. There are certain things that a football player could eat, without lowering their game that a tennis player probably should not eat. Being able to differentiate what foods are good for certain athletes will be the most difficult part of my curation.
