Just about to start pre season training for football, looking for any nutrition advice. What should I be eating, drinking and when.
Rough stats are:
-Height:6ft 2
-weight:12.5 stone.
-body fat: somewhere around the 15% mark.
Thanks!

(1) What position?
(2) How old are you?
(3) Do you have a goal in mind?
(4) Does the team not have a physical conditioning trainer to give you a goal?
(5) Football as in soccer, or football as in American football?1 -

1)Position: right/left wing.
2)Age:20
3)Goal would be to get as fit as possible in a short space of time, with sub goals of putting on lean muscle mass as well as increasing speed.
4) not at the moment no, unfortunately.
5) football:soccer0 -
Why don't you ask your coach?1

I'd recommend consuming your TDEE plus about 200 kcal, in a well-rounded, nutritionally-dense diet with plenty of protein and whole plant foods, and drinking water, milk (if you tolerate it), tea, coffee and/or diet coke (unless you're doing a lot of hard workouts already, especially in heat), and occasionally juice. "When" doesn't really matter.
But at 20 years old and 15% BF, you (1) can probably get away with eating and drinking a fair amount of food that isn't nutritionally dense and (2) are already pretty fit so whatever you've been doing is working.
