Discover what elite football players eat and drink, and learn about some of the science that underpins the current recommendations made by nutrition experts.
Amateur players can use the same nutritional strategies as the top professional players to improve their own game, increase endurance, recover quickly and avoid illness, but they also face other challenges like having to train in the evening after a full day at work. Nutrition is an important issue in many sports and football is no exception because it plays a crucial role in the health of the individual, in adaptations to exercise training, in weight maintenance, and in match performance. Thirty years ago, nutrition was largely ignored by those involved in professional football. Nowadays, it is seen as an essential component to maximise player performance, health and recovery.
This webinar presented by Emeritus Professor Mike Gleeson will be of interest to sport nutritionists and frankly anyone who is a fan of the beautiful game!
