Pacey Performance Podcast
PODCAST LINK:
In this episode of the Pacey Performance Podcast, I am speaking to Performance Nutritionist, James Morehen. It’s been a while since I had a nutritionist on the podcast and it was an absolute pleasure to get James on the podcast. This episode is titled, ‘nutrition for the S&C coach’ because there are still so many S&C coaches out there who are acting nutritionists. In smaller organisations, nutrition support often gets put onto the S&C coach or sports scientist so this episode dives into some key concepts that non-nutritionists need to know.
In this episode we discussed…
- Who is James Morehen (background, education and current role[s])?
- Working within academia
- The realities of publishing
- The link between S&C and nutrition
- The basics for S&C’s covering both roles
- Focusing on behaviour change
- Assessing needs and monitoring progress
- Recovery
- Injury risk
- Body composition
- Pre-season vs in-season
- Fuelling for such high loads in pre-season
- Approaching those that need body composition changes
- Pre-season vs in-season
- Demystifying recent trends
- Veganism
- Intermittent fasting
