Nutrition Tips

Eating in “The Zone”

Bob Seebohar, MS, RD, CSSD, CSCS

Improving athletic performance is a blend between implementing correct physical, mental and nutrition principles throughout the training year. Eating for health should be the primary focal point for any athlete since a high level of performance cannot be supported without an optimal level of health. With that in mind, nutrition begins far sooner than most athletes think. In fact, without proper daily nutrition, training sessions will be sub-par and recovery will take longer.

Interestingly, I read Dr. Sear's book, The Zone, early in my career and schooling and found myself agreeing with his methods. It made sense and even to this day as you will read, his philosophies are very similar to mine in which I use with Olympic, age-group and young athletes.
