Pacey Performance Podcast

Listen Later

In this episode of the Pacey Performance Podcast, I am speaking to Director of Performance Nutrition and Assistant Strength & Conditioning Coach at the New York Giants, Pratik Patel. Pratik blends two roles at the Giants which is something I haven't encountered in the UK before, however it makes complete sense that someone on the nutrition side should have an in depth knowledge of physical preparation. This was a unique podcast and one that even those with no experience or in depth knowledge of nutrition can find real benefit in listening to. Enjoy.

  • Who is Pratik Patel (education, background and current role)
  • The current state of sports nutrition in America/College Sports/Pro Sports
  • How roles have evolved for Sports Dietitians
  • How a Sports Dietitian functions in a High Performance environment with a High Performance Team (and also at the professional level)
    • The more non-traditional Sports Dietitian roles (dual roles) that are becoming more common in sports
  • Similarities and parallels S&C and Nutrition in terms of using coaching cues to teach/educate
  • Macro periodisation as it pertains to the NFL calendar
  • Current sports nutrition trends and their implementation
    • Vegetarianism/veganism with athletes

    Pratik can be found on Twitter @Pratik7Patel
