Although today some professionals do not support that, but rather support a diet with carbohydrates and proteins.

Explanation:

Carbohydrate loading increases glycogen reserves, it is accompanied by a muscle rest plan, without fatigue of muscle fibers.

The purpose of this is to exhaust the muscle fibers in maximum demands such as the competencies, ensuring a necessary energy source that supplies this reaction, for which glycogen reserves are needed.
