Finding who to work with for sports nutrition as an endurance athlete can be a game changer in your performance. Suddenly having more energy throughout training, able to push harder in workouts and not hitting the wall on race day. So let’s talk about what to look for and why it might be the missing piece in your training.
Calories in – calories out = weight loss
Right?!
That’s the standard formula we’ve all been using for years and a large part of what gets many people out the door for that very first run.
After a time, maybe we lose the weight or simply start to focus on other aspects of running because we love our bodies in a different way and want to enjoy those runs even more! It’s kind of magical when our thinking shifts from burning calories to FUELING because we’re athletes.
That’s when alllll the questions start coming out…a few of the big ones I answer a lot:
Today I want to take you a level up and introduce you to the entire concept of sports nutrition for athletes. Plus, I want to give you some direction in finding someone who can help!
Because your running coach is NOT A REGISTERED DIETITIAN. While we know a lot to help with tips on fueling during your run, we are not the people who should be giving you dietary advice for the rest of your day….
