Owls2k Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 What’s more weird is that one player a week has to get all that stuff, a player that they vote as the ‘worst player of the week’. Bizarrely Fletcher was the ‘worst player’ after the Wigan match, where he was man of the match Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shezzas left peg Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 4 hours ago, Tony Pulis said: Good for quick fix but after it runs out it causes a big drop in energy.... Kind of like Heroin. Might be why joao and Nuhiu are only normally used as subs, they can only play a short time until the sugar rush wears off. If they start they're too tired and run out of steam after 20/25 mins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flo Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 The actual reason is that they are part of the training session. They have to chew over 100 sweets a minute as it strengthens the jaw which helps make headers more powerful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Owl14 Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 Not only is sugar a simple carbohydrate which breaks down quickly as mentioned and gives short term boosts of energy it is also used to increase performance Sugar or more specifically glucose is used in anaerobic respiration (When the players work at high intensity or sprinting basically) so it gives them more capacity to sprint faster and harder compared to a lower sugar diet. Also it can help flush out lactic acid which reduces the chances of cramp Don’t know about the chocolate though cause it’s higher in fat content but the sugar is beneficial Anyway lecture over :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sham67 Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 4 hours ago, hawksmore said: Nah this is not a good sign at all. Speaking from a sports science perspective, there are many better fuelling strategies. For example highly branched cyclic dextrin mixed with water would absorb quicker and offer a much better uptake than all of these sweets, which are not pure sugar, but also containing gelatin too. A pro footballer during weekly training should be able to hit his nutritional requirements without needing sweets, however, if they fancy eating them go for it. Just a bit odd and dated our club still buys in to this. Sports science at Wednesday may have come on a lot in recent years, but it's still lacking in comparison to top championship teams. 52 minutes ago, Owl14 said: Not only is sugar a simple carbohydrate which breaks down quickly as mentioned and gives short term boosts of energy it is also used to increase performance Sugar or more specifically glucose is used in anaerobic respiration (When the players work at high intensity or sprinting basically) so it gives them more capacity to sprint faster and harder compared to a lower sugar diet.

Rev Owl Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 (edited) What we need on Owlstalk is a lot less scientific research and a lot more idle opinionated rambles. How else are we going to generate pointless arguments? I like this new approach of conflicting scientific research though. That's going to get things going a bit. However don't get put off idle opinionated ramblers we want to hear from you as well. Edited February 8, 2019 by Rev Owl 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
