Whether one is a beginner, recreational athlete or elite competitor, proper fueling and nutrition is fundamental to improving athletic performance. Through targeted nutrition strategies, athletes can:
– Improve power to weight ratio
– Make weight for competition
– Reduce body fat
– Maintain energy levels, fluid balance and hydration during exercise and competition
– Improve recovery and minimise injury
I am an accredited sports dietitian, with consulting experience to professional sporting teams, cycling clubs, running clubs, fighting arts and athletes of all disciplines. Based on energy needs, training schedules and performance levels, I create targeted hydration and nutrition plans focusing on the sporting outcomes required. I address appropriate day-to-day nutrition, pre- exercise/competition, during-exercise/competition and recovery nutrition. Successful application of these strategies is as important as the training itself to achieve athletic performance gains.
