Nutrition workshop goes down a treatThere were some very interesting questions, which were eagerly discussed by the participants. “You intend to go to the gym after school or work, what's the best thing to take with you?” for instance, and the answers included a) muesli in a plastic tub, b) wraps with peanut butter and banana or c) sandwiches and water. At FC Bayern's first-ever nutrition workshop ‘ZAM G'SUND’ (healthy together), everything revolved around recipes for success in the spirit of the German champions.
From around 700 applications, 50 adult members as well as girls and boys from the TEENS CLUB were randomly drawn to work together on the topic of nutrition - and to cook healthy dishes according to the players' tastes in the FC Bayern Campus kitchen.Dieser Inhalt kann hier leider nicht dargestellt werden.

Are bananas good for doing sport? How was Franz Beckenabuer able to be so good in the past, even though the topic of nutrition wasn't yet that well understood in the era of the ‘Kaiser’? Busam explained everything thoroughly - and revealed, among other things, why the players only get pasta with tomato sauce ahead of kick-off.
