The importance of determining macronutrient needs for athletes for optimal performance
This workshop will help you to determine a proper macronutrient split for your clients that can help them train at their
peak performance, help with weight management, and assist in recovery. The goal of proper nutrition while working
with clients is too maintain energy, have enough fat to use as the primary energy source while at rest, and enough protein
for gains and maintenance of lean muscle mass. We have all heard different percentage amounts, but which is correct,
and for which type of person? When do macros need to be taken, pre/during/post workout? Macros need to be delivered
throughout the day based by the need of energy output, training frequency, physique and performance goals, and other
aspects such as their day-to-day lifestyles. These are the questions that will be addressed. Upon completion of this
workshop, participants will knowwhat eachmacronutrient does and its purpose in sports nutrition. Understand your role
in providing nutrition advice to your clients for optimal performance. Learn how to properly distribute macronutrients
throughout the day to match client goals for optimal performance.
