We have made the playoffs and are continuing to work hard to stay healthy and maintain energy for a long season.  This time of year the players often have "tired legs" and it is important to focus on how they eat and hydrate to have the endurance for every game.

It is hard to believe that the winter months are here. The holiday season brings lots of parties and outdoor activities like sledding and ice skating. Since the weather is dryer and the heaters are on, many of the players try to drink more water.

With the NFL teams in the middle of their season and many of you are finishing up your football seasons, It is important to continue to think about the food you put in your body, since this is when you have time to eat and grow and build strength.  The Ravens are eating to maintain their energy and strength. They are halfway through a tough season and some of the guys are trying not to lose weight. If you lost weight during your football season and need to regain some weight or just need to eat more to grow taller, there are lots of foods that will add the calories and the nutrition your body needs.

Since the season began the Ravens players have been attending meetings, working out, and practicing hard each week. Their schedules are so busy that planning what they are eating is the last thing on their minds. Eating well for recovery and healing is important during the football season.

The NFL season has begun.  Now that all the players are going to be in Baltimore for several months they are getting groceries for their homes and deciding on some quick and easy meals they can prepare when they get home from practice.
