We talk about why nutrition plays such a critical role in athletic performance, with a specific focus on muscle gain and healthy weight management. We cover practical topics like tracking food intake, how often players should be eating, pre-workout nutrition, meal planning, hydration, and the role supplements can (and can’t) play. We also discuss how stress impacts both nutrition and on-field performance. Nick shares why consistency matters more than perfection and explains how players can better understand their individual nutritional needs to perform at their best.
