The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of a 3-day high-carbohydrate intake before an official match on high-intensity actions, particularly acceleration and deceleration performance during the second half of match play, in national-level high school male soccer players.
Efficacy
Rate of decline in high-intensity deceleration distance during the second half of the match, calculated by comparing the first and second halves and measured using a GNSS/IMU device.
High intensity acceleration indicators
Heart rate indices
Subjective rating of perceived exertion sRPE

In the high-carbohydrate intake group (High-CHO group), participants will consume 10 g of carbohydrates per kilogram of body weight per day for three days before the match. Total energy intake will be maintained within the estimated required range (45-55 kcal/kg/day), and protein intake will be standardized at 1.5-1.8 g/kg/day. If the increased carbohydrate intake results in excessive total energy intake, fat intake will be adjusted to prevent substantial imbalance in total energy and macronutrient composition. To minimize gastrointestinal symptoms, carbohydrate sources will mainly consist of easily digestible foods such as rice, noodles, and bread, and meal timing or portion size will be modified as necessary.
In the control diet group (Control group), participants will consume 5 g of carbohydrates per kilogram of body weight per day for three days before the match. Total energy intake will be maintained within the estimated required range (45-55 kcal/kg/day), and protein intake will be adjusted to achieve 1.5-1.8 g/kg/day. Any deficit or excess in total energy resulting from the lower carbohydrate intake will be compensated by adjusting fat intake, ensuring that the overall energy intake and macronutrient balance do not become substantially imbalanced.
