24.01.2022 Sports drink or gel your nutrition strategy on the bike? Is that enough? Nutrition on the bike does not have to be complicated, but it may require a little more than just a bottle of sports drink or a gel at the start line. Your requirements for a pre-during-post ride depend on many factors:... - What your day looks like in terms of activity - The time of you day you are heading out - Your age and energy requirements - The type of riding - The ride duration A sports gel or a drink may be enough, if you are going on a short ride, you have had enough to eat pre ride and the terrain is not too difficult. If you are doing a long session, with technical terrain and say fasted in the morning, that gel or bottle are going to be just the beginning. Want to find out more? Come and join us on Monday at 6pm @SportsPlusPhysiotherapy to find out how to fuel your mountain biking adventures or comment below if you would like an online webinar in the future
23.01.2022 Want to know what to eat when to get the most out of your time on the bike? Want to maximise training to get results on race day? Experiencing some gut issues (urgency, nausea and vomiting or gut upset) and want to do something about it? Dial up your performance with some nutrition strategies specific for mountain biking. Working with mountain bikers at all levels and in all disciplines, and riding myself, I understand the nutritional needs and the challenges of feeding whilst riding. Put your name down and let's make this happen
23.01.2022 Boxing Day done right! Morning ride followed by some beach time! Christmas holidays to me are about more than card games, Christmas movies and indulging. I getting out and about, whether it’s on the bike, hiking, kayaking or heading to the beach. ... What’s your favourite activity during the Christmas holidays? #christmas2020 #activeholidays #noosabeach #cycling #cyclinglife #cyclist #brisbanecyclist #brisbanecyclist #cyclingwithaview
11.01.2022 Starting the year with a new training goal? Want to know how effective it is? See the number changing on the scales but not sure what it actually means? The number of the scale only indicates a change in body mass, it does not provide information on where the change occurred, is it muscle or fat? Chances are it is a bit of both, as we have no way to target just one or the other. Getting an understanding of which one is increasing or decreasing provides us with great insight i...nto how effective our training or nutrition plan (or both) really are. Skin folds are: accurate repeatable minimal noise can be repeated any time Offering 10 lucky people the opportunity to get their skin folds measured at the end of January and then again 6 weeks later, to assess progress.

07.01.2022 One week to go to MTB Nationals ... what should I eat? Many clients racing in Maydena have asked me what to do in the last week pre comp. Nutrition is a long term strategy, fuelling training adequately to maximise adaptation. The last week pre comp is all about eating well to support the immune system, maximise micro and macro nutrients, maintaining glycogen stores and supporting muscle recovery.... The day or 2 pre comp make sure you are having a reasonable amount of carbohydrates to keep the glycogen stores topped up. The last 2 days up your carbs with a lighter meal the night before to prevent feeling heavy on the day. A number of studies found that low carbohydrate intake early in the week or the week before followed by a carb load in the second part of the week or the week pre comp can maximise glycogen stores. Different strategies work for different people but a key race is not the time to try a new strategies, choose a smaller race to try it out. Think your nutrition is letting you down?

04.01.2022 Helping athletes of all ages get the most out of the training through sound nutrition. Love partnering with Progressive Coaching Systems for Nutrition Week
03.01.2022 Consistency vs Perfection Perfection is really hard to achieve and often results in black and white thinking. So if we mess up a meal or a snack we can end up overeating as we feel we messed it up anyway. Consistency on the other hand is when we do the best we can as often as we can. Take this lunch, it is by no means perfect. I had run out of brown rice, so I had to use white, I made a mess of the eggs and It is not what I had pictured in my head.... On the other hand it has: protein for muscle recovery after my MTB session this morning Carbohydrates to restore glycogen stores and energy to get through the afternoon of consults 1/2 plate of veggies for vitamins, minerals and because they taste good hit the spot So not perfect but still nutritious and filling. Stop aiming for the perfect training session, the perfect meal and just aim for consistently fruit and veg enough protein enough carbohydrates to fuel your day keep active: include resistance training and cardio stress good quality sleep #dietitian #sportsdietitian #sportsperformance #brisbanedietitian #brisbanedietician #brisbanenutritionist #mountainbikingnutrition #mountainbikinglife #healthylifestyle #fuelyourbody #foodisfuel
