Team sports are sports that are carried out in teams (more than one person), so good cooperation between players and the right strategy is needed to win. Team sports require energy from aerobic-anaerobic processes in a balanced proportion. When doing high-intensity sports that require fast strength, such as running after a ball or hitting a ball hard, the body's energy metabolism will run anaerobically using energy reserves stored in glycogen. Whereas during low-intensity exercise such as walking, the energy metabolism used is aerobic, where energy will be obtained from stored carbohydrates, fats, and proteins. The sports included in the category of game sports include:
Each sport has a different energy metabolism and nutritional needs from carbohydrates, proteins, and fats, including team sports. In this sport, are recommended to meet the needs of carbohydrates 50-60%, 12-15% protein, and 30-35% fat of the total daily energy needs. This time, Kachimeshi's menu will also include several food recipes adapted to meet the nutritional needs of team sports lovers.
1. Staple Foods
Red Rice
Rice which is a staple food of most Indonesian people can also be a good alternative source of carbohydrates for athletes and even sports lovers. Rice can be combined in a sports lover's diet in the pre-workout phase, during, and after exercise to help reduce fatigue caused by decreased muscle glycogen. Glycogen is a glucose reserve stored in the muscles as the body's energy source. Among the various types of rice, red rice is very suitable to be included in the Kachimeshi menu because it contains higher fiber, vitamins, and minerals than white rice. Including red rice in the pre-and post-workout meal, the menu will provide sports lovers with long-lasting energy and a good source of complex carbohydrates, protein, vitamins, and minerals to replenish glycogen stores in the muscles depleted during exercise.

Golden Kiwi

Unlike other types of berries, Kiwi has a large size, which is the size of an egg. Kiwi is full of vitamins, minerals, and fiber that the body needs. Kiwis are divided into two types, namely Green Kiwi and Golden Kiwi. Both Kiwi is different in physical appearance and nutritional content. Golden Kiwi has a higher content of Vitamin C and E than Green Kiwi, but compared to other fruits such as oranges, pineapple, and papaya, these two types of Kiwis have a higher Vitamin C content.
Golden Kiwi is the right choice to include in the Kachimeshi set menu because of its high Vitamin C and E content good for sports lovers. Vitamins C and E are important antioxidants because when there is an increase in physical activity during exercise there is also an increase in energy production and free radicals resulting from energy metabolism, these two antioxidants function to neutralize these free radicals. In addition, Vitamins C and E also play a role in accelerating the healing process when injured.
