Although it is fairly common for athletes to experience GI distress during performance, it does not make it “normal.” Many individuals struggle with exercise-induced symptoms such as bloating, cramps, gas, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. These symptoms are not only frustrating but can also significantly impact performance.

📍Pinpointing the root cause of GI distress can be challenging; however, some known factors include swallowing air, consuming highly concentrated sports drinks or gels, poor posture, pre-fuel nutrition, dehydration, and the use of NSAIDS. These factors should be considered when identifying your specific triggers. Pay close attention to how your body reacts to different interventions to better manage your symptoms. If symptoms worsen and become increasingly persistent, that is not normal and you may want to consider further medical interventions.

Tips to Manage GI Distress:
• Avoid High-Fiber and Fructose Prior to Activity 🧃
• Stay Hydrated Throughout the Day 💧
• Avoid Regular NSAIDS Use 💊
• Consume Protein After Exercise, Not Before 🍳
• Change 1 Nutrition Factor at a Time - Be Patient! ☝🏻
• Keep a Food Diary to Identify Triggers 📒

As summer is approaching, this is the season infamous for promoting detoxes, diets, and slimming down to obtain a “beach body.” However, coming from a non-diet perspective, here is why athletes should NOT hop on that bandwagon:
🚫Poor Performance
🚫Decrease Training Response
🚫Low Energy Levels
🚫Vitamin Deficiencies
🚫Increased Risk of Injuries and Infections

PLUS you do not need to change your body simply because the weather has started to get warmer!

Chronic dieting, under-fueling, and overtraining can cause RED-S (Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport), a condition which affects all athletes! ➡️Swipe to learn more about RED-S, signs and symptoms, effects on performance, who is at risk, and how nutrition can help.

Fueling properly is important, and summer is no exception to that. ⛽️🍉🙌🏼

How I became a faster runner 8 months postpartum and 5 pounds heavier…click the link to read my new blog post now!

I recapped my race at the Hogeye Half Marathon Series, talked about the nutrition changes I made to make this my fastest race yet! Spoiler, I PR’d by 4 minutes for a finish time of 1:39:06.

Let’s stop the narrative that weight dictates performance. Weight is an OUTCOME of proper fueling, hydration and training.

Hi. You need carbs.
Carbs are our body's most efficient source of fuel.
Carbs will help you to work harder, work faster, work smarter and work longer.
A high protein recipe is great.
A more nutritious recipe is also great.
BUT - if that recipe is very low carb or omits carbs completely, it's not going to be the best fitting recipe for YOU.
Don't be fooled into thinking that just because a recipe says "Dietitian approved", "healthy" or "high-protein" that it is automatically a green light recipe that you don't have to alter.
Can & should you just add a carb source to the recipe? YES!
Carbs are our friends, not our enemies.
I repeat, carbs are our friends, NOT our enemies.

Flexible Nutrition LLC

Welcome! My name is Maddi Osburn, I am a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist, licensed and based in the Wichita, KS area. Flexible Nutrition LLC is my nutrition private practice, where I focus on helping athletes and active adults reach their sports performance goals, heal their relationship with food and their bodies, and improve health for the long-term without restriction.

My practice is focused on helping you utilize sound and effective evidence-based nutrition strategies to help you reach your athletic or recreational pursuits. Maybe it’s that new PR, simply crossing the finish line, building muscle, getting that starting position or just feeling more energized to do whatever kind of movement you enjoy.

Thanks for being here. I will use this page in conjunction with my instagram page to post new happenings, events, services, and nutrition tips and tricks to fuel your workouts and promote your long-term health.
