This is a speciality 4-week module, led by two high performance nutrition experts who have collectively worked with many international athletes and teams, as well as ambitious amateurs; Matt Lovell and Paul Ehren.
In this unit, you will learn how to support an athlete’s performance by looking at their personal ecosystem of health, plus how to identify and use nutritional ergogenic aids to improve your client's performance, safely achieving that competitive advantage!
The ergogenics lectures will focus on:
Understanding how to support the health of an athlete’s body systems in a sports context (an indirect ergogenic aid), which then underpins performance
Consideration of an athlete’s ecosystem (surrounding environmental influences) as a performance contributor, longevity of performance in a sports career and in life, and practitioner awareness of performance enhancing drugs
Discussion of classic nutritional ergogenic aids (e.g. creatine and caffeine) plus recognition of ‘conditional’ ergogenic aids (e.g. in states of nutrient deficiency)
This educational offering can be undertaken as a standalone CPD-focussed module, or as a speciality unit as part of our Certificate of Integrative Sports Nutrition.
