Are you fuelling your body with enough of the good stuff? Getting your fill or requirements of protein, plants and vital nutrients is no easy feat, and it can be even trickier if you're looking for plant-based options.
Nina Gelbke is an Accredited Nutritionist, Sports Nutritionist, Presenter and CrossFit Coach and Athlete, with a big passion for all things fitness and nutrition. She is here to dispel the myth that plant-based diets can't support us - especially as athletes.
Grab your earbuds and press play to explore food and nutrition "for life" as well as for high performance in sports. Tune in to learn:
- Nina's journey from her early childhood relationship with food, through to her diagnosis of Type 1 Diabetes at 9 years old - which ultimately lead to perfectionism in controlling blood sugars and controlling food and exercise... resulting in an eating disorder requiring years of hospitalisation
- How Nina gets her required protein intake for life, recovery and to grow strength after being plant-based for 10 years+
- The 'Replacing Rather Than Removing' Philosophy, particularly with meats
- Sourcing iron intake & where low iron tends to occur for women and for athletes
- Runners: Foot Strike Hemolysis & Iron
- Fuelling inside CrossFit & endurance considerations
- The specific 4 part hierarchy and tips on what & when to eat for building muscle, optimising performance & gaining strength as well as timing food around training (both carbs & protein)
- Minimal Protein Recommendations per day (and per meal) to grow lean muscle
- Examples of plant-based meals throughout the day to meet your RDI's
- The best plant-based protein powders to choose & WHY
- The #1 gap in most athletic diets - in even the recreational athlete
- Busting the lid on the trending "Intuitive Eating" we see everywhere on social media - and why it's setting you up for failure in your physical or sports goals
- What to look for instead of waiting to "feel hungry" - there are clear KEY indicators to watch for if you're unsure about when/what to eat
You WILL be hungry after hearing this powerful conversation - but also incredibly inspired to eat well and to truly nourish and support your body's nutritional needs.
Press play & enjoy! xx
