In Episode 54 of The Hockey Lab Podcast, Coach A, Coach Gards, and Coach Sylvie (Director of Nutrition at GRP) break down how athletes can fuel properly during the season — from game day meals to recovery strategies, and even how parents can help set their kids up for success.

From keeping weight on during a busy schedule, to late-night tournament meals, to why sleep is just as important as protein, this episode delivers practical advice for players and parents who want to get the most out of all the work put in during the offseason.

🎯 In this episode:

• The shift from offseason nutrition → in-season performance fueling

• Game day nutrition: what to eat before, during, and after

• Recovery meals & late-night post-game options

• Why calories and sleep are the real growth drivers for young athletes

• How to get kids more involved in their own nutrition habits

Sometimes the most valuable piece of equipment isn't a stick or skates — it's learning how to fuel the body the right way.
