Nutrition...
The only piece of your development that you have complete autonomy over and can make an instant impact...Yet, 90% of athletes don't take it seriously.
Approximately 25% of collegiate female athletes and 20% of collegiate male athletes struggle with some sort of an eating disorder. That is 1 in 4 athletes you see - That is alarming...
We also want our athletes to be fueling their body properly to maximize their performance on the field. This doesn't just mean eating enough food. It means eating the right foods.
But Why?
If you're wondering, "Is nutrition really that important?"—the answer is yes. Here are the top 5 reasons why focusing on your nutrition can improve your performance:
1) Fuel Your Performance – Learn what to eat and when to eat to meet your energy needs and maximize performance.
2) Maintain Energy Balance – Athletes burn a lot of energy. Avoid energy deficits and understand the risks of Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport (RED-S).
3) Support Recovery – Proper nutrition helps replenish energy stores, repair muscle with protein, and replace lost fluids and electrolytes.
4) Reduce Injury Risk – Eating enough calories and key nutrients supports injury prevention and speeds up recovery when injured.
5) Optimize Body Composition – Learn how to build muscle and reduce body fat in a sustainable way, without fad diets or cutting essential nutrients.
Food is fuel, and you're probably not fueling properly...

Fuel before training – Eat carbs and some protein 1-2 hours before. Example: Rice and chicken, or oatmeal with fruit.
Recover after training – Get protein and carbs within 30-60 minutes. Example: Chocolate milk, eggs on toast, or a protein shake with a banana.
Eat enough daily – If you’re training hard but not gaining strength or keeping up energy, you need to eat more.
Hydrate like it's your job - dehydration kills performance...drink water all day, not just at training
