The Reach Your Peak Experience (A Sports Nutrition Podcast)

Protein bars are one of the most popular supplement food products on the market which is not surprising considering how many people are determined to boost protein levels. 

In today’s episode, I talk you through some of the key considerations and criteria I personally use when deciding on a protein bar food for myself or one of my clients.

Understanding what goes into choosing the best possible protein bar is an important part of being food-informed and building nutrition awareness so that you can make better, more informed decisions about your food. 

In today’s podcast episode, I will cover:

• What makes a protein bar, a “protein bar”? (Categorising bars 101)
• Key considerations and criteria when choosing protein bars
• My personal protein bar brand and type recommendation (the bar I personally use and recommend)

In this episode, I explore the new research that was completed on the caloric impact that nuts have when consumed. In order words, this new evidence suggests that nuts don’t provide us with as many calories as we might have previously thought. 

If you have counted calories before and happen to eat nuts, then you would know just how much caloric punch these delicious snacks can pack in a small crunchy package. However, could it be that the amount of calories we as humans actually absorb from eating nuts is A LOT less than expected?

Nutrition is so complex and multi-faceted. One example of this is the fact that digestion and absorption of foods aren’t quite as simple as “food goes in, nutrients and calories are absorbed” - not at the fundamental physiological level at least. 

Could nuts be less caloric to us because of this?

What are the practical ramifications of this if true?

Or does this need more research to conclude?

In today’s podcast episode, I will cover:

• Review of the latest research on nuts and calories
• What does this mean for you? (the practical considerations)

Hope you enjoy!

In this episode, I talk about the fundamentals of post-game/pre-training fuelling nutrition - showing you what considerations you need to have when deciding on a meal or snack to fuel your upcoming effort.

This is the second part of the two part series where I cover the basics you need to know to start fuelling and recovering more effectively. Make sure you also listen to episode #151, where I covered PRE-game nutrition fundamentals. 

Sports nutrition depends heavily on the strategy you use and it is a different beast to regular nutrition for the typical goal of fat loss or building muscle. Fuelling is a game that needs to be played well over time. 

So what should you do to fuel yourself correctly post-game or post-training?

In today’s podcast episode, I will cover:

• Signs of poor nutrition (is your recovery food game lacking?)
• Post-game nutrition 101 (the fundamentals)
• The 3 R’s Principle (my approach to post-game nutrition)

Listen to the full episode to learn more about real nutrition and the experiences of a Sports Dietitian.

Hope you enjoy!
