Trends and Updates in Nutrition

Health fitness professionals need help differentiating between nutrition myths and scientifically sound principles. Proposals should provide research-based nutrition information and answer questions regarding evidence-based guidelines, dietary supplements, fads and trends, fueling for athletic performance and overall healthy eating principles.

Interactive Workshop: A Day as an Athlete: Pre-, During, and Post-Workout Nutrition Strategies

April 2 April 3
5:00-6:30 PM CDT 9:45-11:15 AM CDT

This presentation focuses on nutrition and structured workouts to support the everyday athletes' needs throughout the day, particularly highlighting nutrition surrounding their workouts. We review the many roles of ingredients and nutrients in the diet, as well as optimal sources of those nutrients to fuel the body pre-, during, and post-exercise, and will interact with the attendees as we discuss these three intervals, showing how to structure workouts for the best results. This will include a dynamic warm-up, muscle activation, and stretching. We also review other important behaviors to optimize athletes' performance, including stretching and adequate sleep.
