Proper nutrition plays a critical role in an athlete’s performance and recovery. Here’s how you can support your athlete’s nutritional needs alongside their Athletes Untapped coaching:

Open Dialogue with the Coach:

Discuss the importance of nutrition with the coach. They may have general recommendations or can advise on how training intensity might impact nutritional needs.

Educate Yourself and Your Athlete:

Learn about the basic nutritional requirements for athletes, focusing on hydration, carbohydrates, protein, and healthy fats. Share this information with your athlete.

Provide Nutritious Meals and Snacks:

Ensure your athlete has access to balanced meals and healthy snacks that fuel their training and aid in recovery.

Consider Professional Guidance:

If your athlete has specific dietary needs or you’re unsure about the best approach, consider consulting with a registered dietitian or sports nutritionist.

While Athletes Untapped doesn’t provide specific nutritional advice, ensuring open communication with the coach about training demands is key: How do I contact a coach? Understanding the intensity and frequency of training sessions booked through the platform can help inform nutritional planning: How do I know if I booked a lesson?
