✨ As Healthy Bones Action Week wraps up, here’s your reminder: our bones keep us strong, mobile, and protected for life. 🦴💪 Whether you’re 8 or 80, bone health matters.

Our muscles store carbs as glycogen 💪, but these stores are limited to around 400–600 g total.
In endurance running (especially >60 minutes 🏃‍♂️), glycogen can be depleted, leading to fatigue and “hitting the wall.”

Carbohydrates are essential to keep performance up ⚡—and not just for running, but for any form of exercise.

👉 The amount needed depends on the length of exercise, but it’s also important to train your gut. Even starting with 50% less than the recommended amount can help build tolerance.

🔹 2.5–3 hrs: 60–90 g carbohydrate per hour, ideally from a glucose + fructose mix for best absorption

Adequate priming leading up to a race is essential for maximizing performance, ensuring your body has the right energy stores in the right places to fuel your run effectively

✅ 2–3 hrs before: Eat a carb-rich breakfast like oats + banana or French toast with honey, and hydrate with 500–700ml of water.

✅ 30 mins before: Top up with an easy-to-digest snack like a banana, dried apricots, or pretzels.

🚫 Race day is not the time to experiment – stick to foods you know your body handles well!

📌 Note: Macronutrient quantities should be adjusted based on the duration of your run and your individual body size and needs.

Are you running in the 2025 Sydney Marathon? 🏃‍♀️

Whether you’re a first-timer or a seasoned runner, how you fuel the day before is key.

Carbohydrate loading is a strategy used by endurance athletes to maximise glycogen stores in the muscles and liver — helping boost performance and delay fatigue during long events.

Research suggests aiming for 8–12g of carbs per kg of body weight the day before the marathon.

Swipe to see what a 56-year-old female, based on 8g/kg, could eat in a day to support her fuelling needs.

Did you know? It's Tradies' National Health Month! 🛠️

August is all about looking after the health of our hardworking tradies. As Dietitians, we know the physical demands of trade work, and the impact nutrition can have on:
✅ Sustained energy throughout the day
✅ Muscle recovery & injury prevention
✅ Focus and mental alertness
✅ Reducing the risk of chronic disease

Our quick tips for tradies:
🥪 Start the day with a protein-rich breakfast
💧 Hydrate regularly with water as the beverage of choice
🍌 Pack wholesome snacks like fruit, boiled eggs, nut mix, veggie sticks with dips instead of relying on servo pies
🥗 Don’t skip lunch, important to have a balanced meal with carbohydrates, protein and vegetables

A few small changes can lead to big improvements in performance and long-term health.

Are you running in the 2025 this Sunday? 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️

Whether you’re a first-timer or a seasoned pro, how you fuel and hydrate can make or break your race. Here’s how to stay on top of it from start to finish 👇

👉 BEFORE the race
💧 Hydrate well the day before — aim for 2–3L of water, especially if it’s warm.
🍽 Eat a balanced dinner (think: carbs, lean protein, healthy fats).
🍌 On race morning, go for an easy-to-digest breakfast 2–3 hours before (e.g. oats, banana, toast with PB).
🥤 Sip on water or an electrolyte drink in the hour before the start — but don’t overdo it!

👉 DURING the race
🚰 Hydration stations are set up along the course — use them!
🧃 Sip water or electrolyte drinks at each one (even if you’re not thirsty — dehydration can sneak up).
⚡️Running over 75–90 minutes? Consider bringing a small energy gel or chew for a mid-race boost.

👉 AFTER the finish line
💦 Rehydrate ASAP with water + electrolytes (especially if you’re a salty sweater).
🥪 Refuel within 30–60 minutes with carbs + protein (think: recovery smoothie, sandwich, or chocolate milk).
🧘‍♂️ Keep sipping water throughout the day to help your body recover.

𝗗𝗿𝘆 𝗝𝘂𝗹𝘆 – 𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝘁𝗼 𝗥𝗲𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗱𝘂𝗰𝗲 𝗔𝗹𝗰𝗼𝗵𝗼𝗹 𝗠𝗶𝗻𝗱𝗳𝘂𝗹𝗹𝘆 🍷

As Dry July comes to an end, here are some tips on easing alcohol back into your social life in a safe and nutritionally responsible way.

𝗕𝗲𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗱𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴:
🍗 Eat a protein-rich meal – Slows alcohol absorption and reduces blood sugar spikes
💧 Hydrate early – Have 1–2 glasses of water before your first drink
🧠 Set your limit – Decide how many drinks you’ll have beforehand (aim for 1–2 standard drinks)
📏 Know the guidelines – Max 10 standard drinks per week, no more than 4 in one sitting

𝗪𝗵𝗶𝗹𝗲 𝗱𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴:
⏳ Pace yourself – No more than 1 drink per hour
🤝 Drink buddy system – Alternate each alcoholic drink with water to stay hydrated
🍹 Choose lower-alcohol options – Light beer, wine spritzers, or non-alcoholic alternatives
🔍 Watch your pour – A standard drink = 100ml wine, 30ml spirit, or 285ml beer
