The purpose of this study was to determine if maturational timing is related to collegiate swim performance. Maturational timing was estimated using age at menarche (AaM), which was determined retrospectively in collegiate swimmers (N = 273). Each swimmer’s best performance during the 2015-2016 NCAA season was obtained from the USA Swimming database and selected based on Power Point Score (PPS), a standardized score given to all performances in the database. Independent samples t tests were used to compare (i) PPS and body mass index (BMI; from selfreported height and weight) between earlier maturing (youngest 33% at menarche) and later maturing …

Position statement: The International Society of Sports Nutrition (ISSN) provides an objective and critical review regarding the timing of macronutrients in reference to healthy, exercising adults and in particular highly trained individuals on exercise performance and body composition. The following points summarize the position of the ISSN: 1. Nutrient timing incorporates the use ofmethodical planning and eating ofwhole foods, fortified foods and dietary supplements. The timing of energy intake and the ratio of certain ingestedmacronutrientsmay enhance recovery and tissue repair, augmentmuscle protein synthesis (MPS), and improvemood states following high-volume or intense exercise. 2. Endogenous glycogen stores are maximized by following …
