Description
This is a GREAT episode for your gymnast to listen to with you :)
Often gymnast's hear coaches say things like…
"Practice how you want to compete"
"Don’t waste a single turn"
I was working with a level 9 gymnast recently and “don’t waste a single turn” took on another meaning for me.
This story will share with you what I mean when I say "leverage the power of nutrition to unlock that next level of performance".
In this episode you'll hear:
- A case study on a level 9 gymnast whose parents thought everything was "fine" with nutrition
- How this gymnast improved her efforts in the gym (without more motivation, trying harder, etc)
- What it means to use nutrition to help your gymnast gain that competitive edge and standout from her competition (especially if she's not the most naturally talented, and I can say that because that was my story)
