      guidelines to encompass carbohydrate periodization.

AB  - Despite more than four decades of research examining the physical demands of 
      match-play, quantification of the customary training loads of adult male 
      professional soccer players is comparatively recent. The training loads 
      experienced by players during weekly micro-cycles are influenced by phase of 
      season, player position, frequency of games, player starting status, 
      player-specific training goals and club coaching philosophy. From a macronutrient 
      perspective, the periodization of physical loading within (i.e., match versus 
      training days) and between contrasting micro-cycles (e.g., 1, 2 or 3 games per 
      week schedules) has implications for daily carbohydrate (CHO) requirements. 
      Indeed, aside from the well-recognised role of muscle glycogen as the predominant 
      energy source during match-play, it is now recognised that the glycogen granule 
      may exert regulatory roles in activating or attenuating the molecular machinery 
      that modulate skeletal muscle adaptations to training. With this in mind, the 
      concept of CHO periodization is gaining in popularity, whereby CHO intake is 
      adjusted day-by-day and meal-by-meal according to the fuelling demands and 
      specific goals of the upcoming session. On this basis, the present paper provides 
      a contemporary overview and theoretical framework for which to periodize CHO 
      availability for the professional soccer player according to the "fuel for the 
      work" paradigm.
