J.J. Mayo – Fueling Fitness & Peak Performance: Nutritional Strategies for Unleashing the Athlete
Description
Optimum Nutrition for Athletes & Active Individuals
Proper nutrition is vital for athletes and active individuals wanting to achieve peak performance. With the overwhelming amount of nutrition information, it can be difficult to separate fact from fiction. The desire to gain a competitive edge leaves athletes susceptible to marketing ploys and gimmicks promoting overnight success. Many athletes are wasting time and money, while some can be putting their long-term health at risk.
This recording will provide you with a nutrition playbook to help your clients achieve their sports performance goals. Professionals working with athletes must be trustworthy and knowledgeable resources offering simple, practical, and proven solutions to their clients’ sports nutrition problems. This recording will arm attendees with the most up-to-date evidence-based research in the areas of meal planning for athletes, nutrient timing and periodization, and the effective use of nutritional supplements. Hands-on demonstrations, sample laboratory data, and case studies will be used during the recording to allow attendees to translate sports nutrition science into practice.
