Haven’t done one of these for a while so for those of you that are new here , I’m Tim

I’m a performance nutritionist and coach who’s been working in the fitness industry since 2007 ( yes I’m old)

I’ve worked with a wide variety of clients ranging from complete beginners through to professional athletes.

I work largely with combat athletes handling their nutrition, weight cuts and strength and conditioning but also work with the general public and athletes from other sports.

I also run a semi private training facility in Perth Western Australia and spend my spare time with my wife and 4 kids , doing nerdy s**t or trying to be less s**t at jiu jitsu.

If you’ve ever wanted help to become a better athlete or improve your health / body composition feel free to drop me a DM

New Advanced Performance radio episode now live 🎤

Had the pleasure of talking with Bjj brown belt / bodybuilder about all things jiu jitsu and weight training.

We also delved into the internet f**kery of “functional training” and what actually constitutes a functional movement.

This was a great chat with the big guy , episode is live on Spotify with the link in my bio.

Training hard is one thing , but if it’s holding you back you may need to focus on recovery.

All too often we see combat athletes who’s training looks like
- 10k run
- 1hr S@C session
- pad work
- heavy sparring

All in one day….
Having some more intense training days in your week is important but when your whole week looks like this it’s really hard for your body to recover and can actually be detrimental to your performance and skill acquisition.

1. Don’t ever neglect your bodies ability to move freely , it can be taken away from you at a moments notice.

2. You can learn something from absolutely anyone , don’t close yourself off to learning from people you usually wouldn’t.

3. Never stop learning , the human brain is an amazing tool so don’t neglect its capacity to learn new things.

4. Be mindful of who you spend your time with, it’s the only thing you can’t buy back.

5. Loyalty is a novelty to many people , don’t neglect those that have always been it.

6. Use critical thinking , don’t trust someone’s words just because they’re confident saying them.

7. resilience gets you a lot further in life than talent

8. Morons are often the ones that shout their opinion loudest

9. Never make an important decision while upset or angry

10. Working 10 times harder in a job you love is worth 100x more than an easy job you hate

The sports nutrition pyramid

When it comes to sports nutrition it’s important that we approach it so that we work on the important basics first and then start looking at other factors.

Our energy intake in terms of calories and our macronutrient ratios is the main factor we need to look at first.

Then we can look at the timing of our meals and optimising hydration through electrolytes/ hydration strategies.

Finally we can look at evidence based supplements that we know can give us a sufficient benefit.

Do you want to level up your sports nutrition?

Big day yesterday for these two competing at the show for their first time.

Takes a lot of sacrifice to get on stage so these two needed to be commended.

Now it’s back to the drawing board to make necessary changes to improve.

Soreness is not a form of progression so why do so many chase it in their training ?

Weight training is about achieving improvements in strength , hypertrophy, explosive power or sports performance but I see so many lifters either quantifying their sessions by how sore they are or not being satisfied with a session if they aren’t sore.

While soreness can happen from weight training it isn’t a determining factor of how effective the session was.

Focus on the important things
- weight lifted
- total volume
- technique
- how well you moved through the exercises
- recovery from your sessions

Pre training meal ideas

When we are trying to select what we should eat before training we need to consider the following
- serving of protein
- sufficient amount of carbs to support training intensity
- minimal fibre to prevent digestive discomfort
- minimal fats to prioritise carbohydrate digestion

Here are 2 options for your meals 2-3 hours out from training and another for closer to training.

Are you an athlete that wants to prioritise performance ?

So you’re incorporating a hybrid style of training ?

Don’t make the mistake of neglecting these 3 factors.

1. Energy availability
If you are increasing your training volume considerably with things like double sessions a day etc your bodies need for fuel in terms of calories will go up, don’t make the mistake of having calories set too low as it will drastically decrease performance and increase your risk of illness / injury.

2. Training volume
For many people training in a hybrid style often means an increase in training volume , it’s important to manage our total training volume so that we don’t exceed what our body can recover from.

3. Active recovery work
Want to train like an athlete

Are all hydration drinks created equal ?

Post training hydration for athletes is an important factor to keep under control and many people lean on sports drinks to help them rehydrate.

But are they all as effective ?

Above I did a quick review on some popular hydration drinks covering their sodium content as this is the primary electrolyte for hydration and if there is sufficient amounts to actually rehydrate.

The prime hydration and Powerade fell short on sodium content , Gatorade having a sufficient amount for light sweaters and trainade coming out on top due to its ability to be a stronger concentration due to it being powder form and sufficient sodium intake.

Trainade is the brain child from and I’ve got to say it’s a solid product for any athlete for post session hydration.
