Abstract
The primary principle of sports nutrition for athletes’ performance is to ensure the athlete is consumption enough calories to offset energy expenditure with balance of nutrients. The nutrition is directly related to the metabolic processes during intense physical loads. Unbalanced nutrition is one of the factors limiting of athletes’ performance. The aim - scientific substantiation of the diet for elite athletes of endurance events, taking into account the energy expenditure, volume and intensity of training loads. The methods: analysis and systematization of scientific publications by research issues, analysis of actual nutrition’s, daily energy expenditure, volume and intensity of training of elite athletes of endurance events. The energy expenditure and the actual content of macronutrients and the energy value of the daily rations of elite athletes of endurance events are compared. A significant energy deficient diet, an imbalance of macronutrients, mostly carbohydrates, was revealed. Three variants of the nutritional needs and the content of macronutrients were developed, respectively, for low, medium and high intensity of energy expenditure.
