It’s not about eating perfectly… not even close.
Some of the things we may work on depending upon your goals include:
💫 Making sure you are getting enough nutrition in so that you can do the things you want to in life from riding to working and so much more
💫 Helping you to feel more neutral towards your body and respect all of the wonderful things it does for you (recognising that this will look different for people with disabilities and illnesses)
💫 Supporting you to develop a more positive relationship with food so that you can spend less time worrying about food and eating and more time experiencing life
💫 Learning how to cook tasty meals without spending hours in the kitchen
DM me to learn more about how I work with riders to support them in reaching their goals.

Easter is over. Tell me are you feeling guilty for "overdoing it" with the chocolate and planning how you will 'make up' for it? Or as an intuitive eater did you enjoy the chocolate and have already forgotten about it?
If you fall into the first camp, know that this does not have to be the way that you relate to food. if you're ready to change this, DM me today to find out how intuitive eating can help you.

Dear Universe, Stop trying to make keto happen! Its not going to happen.
The Keto diet is typified by a very low intake of carbohydrates and a large amount of fat. Here is why the keto diet is very unlikely to be beneficial.
For athletes carbohydrate is the most efficient energy source, particularly during intense or long exercise.
From a general health perspective carbohydrate rich foods have much to offer:
🧠 They are the preferred fuel of our brains
🔬Carbohydrate based foods are often packed with micronutrients. For instance, wholegrains are rich in b-vitamins, selenium and magnesium - all of which are essential for health and wellbeing.
💩 Carbohydrate rich foods are an excellent source of fibre, important for keeping us regular and supporting good gut bugs.
🤤 They are also delicious.

When athletes think about nutrition protein is often the first thing they think about, but it certainly shouldn't be the last.
We should also be considering:
Carb load for fuelling and energy
Hydration for energy, concentration and optimal reactions
Eating regularly for maintaining energy levels
Spreading protein across the day to support maximally support muscles
Choosing foods which sit well before exercise
Balance and variety for health.
Enjoyment and flavour for sustainability!
Double tap if you agree.

After you spent all of that money and had your boots custom made, you might feel a whole range of emotions if you are struggling to get them done up.
Culture tells us that our bodies shouldn't change, but the reality is that this just isn't how they were designed. Bodies change for all sorts of reasons across the lifespan.
We shouldn't be feeling shame about this.
And the great news is that if your boots aren't fitting you quite right, you can get them adjusted. You can either have them stretched or have extra leather added in to make them bigger.
Your boots (and clothes generally) can be adjusted to fit you. Lets normalise having top boots adjusted and stop trying to make our bodies fit into a mould.

Getting your carb intake right and your hydration optimised won't just help you ride at your best it can also help you feel better.
This doesn't mean:
❌Eating 'perfectly' (reminder there is no such thing as eating perfectly)
❌Following a meal plan (unless you have poor hunger/fullness cues and require the structure)
❌Eliminating or avoiding certain foods (unless you have an allergy or intolerance diagnosed through established, proven methods)
❌Loosing weight
Hell, it doesn't even mean you have to cook for yourself every single day!
It does mean:
✅ Learning to listen to your body and meeting it's needs
✅ Prioritising your own needs alongside those of your horse
If you are ready to develop a calmer relationship with food and become the athlete you are capable of being, DM me to arrange a discovery call.

🎉Instead, it is my goal to give my clients the knowledge and skills to eat in a way that meets their own unique needs.
🛑I do not do 'diets' - they just don't work. Occasionally a meal plan might be needed, for example for clients who struggle with disordered eating. But as a general rule they can be too rigid and don't adapt to our changing needs.
❤️ Double tap if you relate.

🧥Did you know layers of clothing act as an insulator, so your jacket may look pretty but it may impact on your bodies ability to maintain your temperature by interfering with some of the key mechanisms of heat loss. It can
🥵 prevent sweat from evaporating (our main method of loosing heat when exercising in hot environments)
🍃 impact on loss of heat to the surrounding cooler air or through touching cooler objects
🏈 In other sports where athletes are covered/wearing significant padding, such as American football and motorsports, higher core temperature and sweat rates are seen.
🌡️Why does this matter? Not only can elevated core temperature can impair performance it also increases the risk of exertional heat stress.
So let's normalize riding without a jacket when they are waived or not required!

Now don't get me wrong, what you eat does not need to be "perfect", but it can impact the way you feel and the way you perform as an athlete.
Holes in your nutrition and hydration can negatively impact on your energy levels, concentration, reactions and mood.
And if those things don't play a fundamental role in riding then I don't know what does.
