My recommended fats are: omega fats from fish (salmon), lean ground beef and red meat (after fat removal).

A little protein a day helps to restore new fuel in muscles fast and allowing you to perform at maximum level when your body needs it on field.

3. A Lot of Fluids Never Hurts

Most athletes do not like water. It seems like we have it all time and there is no taste. Unfortunately, we all need to consume a large amount of water. Luckily today there are many flavored drinks to help with unbearable bland taste of water.

Whichever route you may take it is recommended that you drink fluids in these amounts listed below:

Before match: 16oz – 20oz water 2 hours prior During match: 7oz – 10oz of Gatorade or similar every 15-20 minutes After match: 20oz of water or equivalent for every pound of body mass

These liquid amounts could vary during weather condition in which you play. During summer and warm times you will need more water. If you are playing in cold temperatures you should still follow this guideline above Overall, it is very important for soccer athletes to maintain a well-balanced nutritional regime during season. It has been proven that soccer athletes who follow a guide like this or similar, that you will see great results on field!

Professional athlete Sylita Thomas is widely known for her prowess on the basketball court but she has a big love affair with soccer. She knows what your body goes through when it's playing hard and what it takes to keep the fire stoked. That's why she poured her heart into creating the ultimate cookbook for soccer players.

CLIMBING HILLS

Practice climbing on evenly surfaced slopes of less than 20 degrees. The vehicle's capability in climbing hills or traversing any specific terrain is dependent upon operator skill and vehicle load. As you gain experience in handling this vehicle, and learn hazards to be encountered and your own limitations you may then proceed to drive more challenging terrain. However, you must first be able to discern and avoid any hill or hazard that would cause this vehicle to overturn. Take a running start, at appropriate speed for ascent, and climb at a steady rate of speed.

WARNING - Do not apply power suddenly by opening throttle while ascending a hill or front wheels may rise from ground. If front wheels lift, operator's control will be lessened and vehicle may overturn backwards. If you should find that you have incorrectly estimated climbing capability and lack power or traction to continue ascent, if space permits, turn vehicle around while you still have forward speed to do so and descend. Avoid stalling part way up a hill, as maneuvering will then become more difficult.

CAUTION - Before attempting a turn on a hillside, operator should first master turning technique on level ground. If you do lose all forward speed, and can neither continue uphill nor maneuver vehicle under its own power, turn off engine, dismount, and physically turn machine around.

CAUTION - To avoid overturning, operator must exercise a high degree of caution when dismounting or moving this vehicle on a hillside.

DESCENDING HILLS

It is usually advisable to descend hills with vehicle pointed directly downhill, avoiding angles that would cause vehicle to lean sharply to one side. As you approach point of descent, stop and survey terrain below. Never drive headlong past your limit of visibility. When you have picked a safe path of descent, descend slowly with throttle closed. Sit back on seat, with arms extended and braced on steering wheel. When descending it is recommended that operator apply brakes intermittently to further reduce forward speed. Braking effectiveness is reduced while descending any incline with a loose surface.

RIDING THROUGH WATER

Do not cross any stream with fast flowing water. The tires may float, making it difficult to maintain control. Do not drive vehicle through water for prolonged periods. The vehicle can cross water to a depth of approximately 4-6 inches, although operator must be careful to avoid getting spark plug or air cleaner wet. When crossing shallow streams, choose a course where both banks have gradual inclines. Proceed at a slow, steady speed, and take care to avoid submerged obstacles and slippery rocks. If loss of forward motion or pulling power is noticed when driving through water, it indicates torque converter belt has become wet. When this occurs, operator should immediately head toward shore at minimum throttle required to maintain motion. Once on shore, torque converter belt will dry quickly if operator will sit for a few moments with engine idling. After driving through water, brakes may be less effective than normal. Test brakes after traveling through any water, and if necessary, apply brakes repeatedly until heat of friction has dried them and brakes retain their normal effectiveness.

WARNING - Do not operate vehicle at high speeds until brakes are dry and effective.

5. Additional Kid Safety Tips

* Ensure child is competent and physically capable of operating go cart.

* Set clear boundaries in which go cart is to be ridden.

* Always provide close adult supervision and never leave children alone, even for a minute while a go cart is being used.

* We suggest purchasing one of our child go cart models that come equipped with a training tether that allows an adult opportunity to shut off engine if needed.

Following these and your go cart manufacturer's Operating Manual will help you to maintain your go cart's performance and your safety. You're on your way to fun!
