Not all carbs are the same.

They can be categorised by their glycaemic index (GI), which refers to how quickly they raise blood glucose levels after digestion.

As an athlete, both low and high GI carbs have a place in your diet. It’s just about learning how to use them effectively.

Low GI carbs provide slower, sustained energy. They’re ideal for main meals and steady fuelling across the day.

High GI carbs digest more quickly and deliver rapid energy. They’re useful before training, during long sessions, or when recovery time is short.

You don’t need to cut certain carbs out. You just need to use them strategically to support performance.

Athletes can have busy schedules, so here are my go-to quick lunches when you time isn’t on your side!

A balanced lunch should include:
🍚 Carbs – for energy to power training, focus & recovery
🍗 Protein – to support muscle repair & keep you full
🥦 Colour – for vitamins, minerals & antioxidants
🥑 Fats – to help with vitamin absorption

Because the best meals are the ones you’ll actually make and eat, not the ones that take hours to prep

Introducing Plyometric Training for Junior Athletes

Three steps to introducing plyometric training depending on their stage of development:

1. Disguise force absorption and expression into games and obstacle course whilst ensuring there is an underlying skill component to the exercise

2. Introduce singular jumping and landing movements in order to reinforce technique

3. Increase complexity through continuous movements which challenges coordination

If you would like to see your child become more explosive, visit the junior development program page through the link in our bio 🔗

Your gut isn’t just about digestion. It also plays a HUGE role in how you perform, recover and stay healthy 💪🏽

For athletes, a happy gut means:
✅ Better nutrient absorption
✅ Stronger immune system
✅ Improved energy + recovery
✅ Less risk of GI issues on game day

And with high training loads, travel, nerves and changing routines, it can put a lot of stress on your gut.

So, swipe to see how to improve your gut health for performance
