Course Overview

Tennis Nutrition

Complete Nutrition for the Competitive Tennis Player

Everybody knows that nutrition can have a huge impact on tennis performance, yet so many players are getting it wrong! Not eating or drinking the right things on the court, running out of gas in the third set, not recovering properly between matches, or cramping that could have been prevented by better nutrition.

I am a sports dietitian who works with high-level tennis players including Grand Slam winners as well as up and coming pros, juniors, and club players. Having also spent time as a college tennis coach, I know that getting players to try new things can be a major challenge. I also know that budget plays a role in the foods coaches can provide for players as well as in the choices players make on their own. With all of that in mind, this course was set up to offer easy to implement solutions, without being burdened by complicated plans or being told to eat things you don't like!

Years of both research and practical experience in tennis have allowed me to create a course that offers coaches and players an understanding of the key sports nutrition concepts in a format that is easy to follow. Topics are broken down into short modules that can be viewed over a period of days or weeks, and you won’t need a nutrition degree to understand it and take away helpful information that will improve your results.

    As a tennis coach and tennis player, this course helped me a lot in learning how important nutrition is. Thanks to this course, I gained some key points that are more applicable to my athletes. Also, it corrected some information I thought I had already known. Many thanks for sharing this valuable knowledge with us.

    Its an amazing way to change your lifestyle and health as there are options given, some small and some a bit bigger so that you can get more extreme as and when you get more comfortable in trusting the process.

    This course contains useful information for the serious tennis athlete, but the presentation felt too narrated.

    Trabalho conciso, bem explicado e com exemplos reais. Sentí o "ritmo" da fala apressado, o demais tudo bem! Recomendaria sim para ampliar a noção do importante que é um boa nutrição e os aspectos que se devem cuidar antes, durante e depois da preparação!!!
