Alpine skiing, snowboarding, speed skating, ice hockey, biathlon: winter sports pose unique physical challenges for athletes, which go beyond those of disciplines practiced in other seasons. The intense cold, altitude, and explosive efforts alternating with prolonged periods of endurance require a carefully planned diet.
