Nutritional Advice

Does your food fuel your performance?

Our service will suit someone who wishes to incorporate healthy nutrition into their sport and training or the person looking for a one-off consultation, with an assessment of their present nutritional intake

Do you ever find yourself grinding to a halt, halfway through the morning?

“Well, I am not a morning person!” you may say. There is a good chance that the issue has been poor food intake at the start of the day; recognised as the worst time for unhealthy, nutrition-deficient eating.

Almost certainly if you get your nutritional intake right, you will improve your physical appearance and performance. Nutrition is an integral part of all physical development and changes depending on the stresses that we put upon our bodies, whether it is the stress of playing sport, maintaining a busy work schedule or just the natural process of maturing. Every lifestyle will have a different nutritional need. Get it right and you will feel fit for anything; get it wrong and you will feel tired and listless, perhaps blaming it on other potential causes, when it is, in fact, your nutrition.

Our nutritional programme is based around the maintenance of a Food Diary, a Nutrition Assessment and results in verbal and written recommendations on intakes and food choices. Nutritional Advice is included in any course of Personal Training Sessions

Weight Management

Do you want to be the size and shape you want with a stable weight?

Achieving and maintaining a healthy weight is an important part to staying well and avoiding conditions that can seriously affect your health. Being overweight can lead to many diseases and conditions such as heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes, and certain cancers. Being underweight can lead to such conditions as osteoporosis. Weight management is not just about losing or gaining weight, but maintaining a weight that will keep you healthy long term

We easily develop habits and behaviors in our everyday lives in relation to food and our overall lifestyle. It is true to say that many of us lead busy lives, eating "on the go" often pre-prepared or processed foods where the sugar, salt and fat contents are often high. Can you remember making a conscious decision about what you were going to eat for lunch today or did you grab what was easiest in the five minutes you had? Have you ever got home from a stressful day at work, opened a bottle of wine, sat down to relax and before you know it you've had 3 glasses and two bags of crisps to go with it? Most of us have done this at some point.

It is also vital, when looking at weight management (both weight loss or weight gain) that we have a total understanding of our body’s requirements, our present nutritional intake and our physical activity levels. Only by looking carefully at these can we assess what changes need to be made and how we can make them.

Fundamentally if our habits and behaviors are left unchanged the risk of regaining unhealthy weight or losing healthy weight, is much higher. In other words keep doing the same and you’ll keep getting the same results
