Nutrition for Athletes

Nutrition for Athletes

Are you interested in sport nutrition? Maybe you're an athlete or a coach, or a student or a lifelong learner looking to understand more about how nutrition and exercise affect our bodies.

If so, this is the course for you. We will look at how the body adapts to training and why nutrition is vital to this process. We will look at macros (carbohydrate, proteins and fats), micronutrients (vitamins and minerals) but we will also look at:

• How to construct a healthier diet

• Calculate your personal nutritional requirements

• Manage your hydration

• Fuel appropriately for exercise and competitive sport

• Understand the psychology of healthy eating

Taught by Chris Worfolk, qualified psychologist, British Triathlon coach, author of The One-Hour Guide to Sport Nutrition, Ironman triathlete and ultramarathon runner.
