Welcome to Food for Sport.
The inaugural post for my blog is some groundwork and a little
chin-wag. The point of this blog is to
get information out to whoever wants it, information that is correct and backed
by evidence. Free of media hype and
financial gains. We all get a lot of
advice from friends, colleagues, coaches, team mates, Men’s Health and “sport
nutritionists”, many of them saying something slightly different to the other
or completely contradictory for that matter.
Who to believe???
Eating right
for your exercise and sporting demands is not rocket science but we often get
led astray by all the different sources of information. I am going to try keep regular posts of
various topics as we go along. To start
off I will cover the basics and then move into specific topics. Any new trends, products, research that comes
up I will dive into and give the evidence based info. I want this to be an open
forum for topics and discussions for anyone interested so post questions,
personal experiences, concerns, arguments or agreements as you go.
This is not just a platform for serious sportsmen. From the weekend cyclist to the tri-athlete
to the couch potato I will cover healthy guidelines, sport specific
recommendations, supplement use, recipes and cooking advice, buying guidelines,
restaurant reviews and tips for eating out. Plus anything else that might pop
up or pass your lips of interest.
By appointment I am going to be available for private
consults, body composition analysis, dietary analysis, meal planning and
nutritional advice. Please contact via
my email foodforsport.penzhorn@gmail.com
