As a competitive, health-conscious athlete, I have always known that what I eat plays a key role in determining not only how well I perform, Still, after more than four decades as a runner, multi-discipline cyclist, and triathlete, I know that my athletic achievements weren’t always the result of having an optimal nutrition plan in place.
After faithfully subscribing to the established principles of sports nutrition and making grain-based carbohydrates the foundation of my diet for many years, both my health and athletic performance began to decline. Digestive difficulties led to a stress hormone imbalance which caused adrenal fatigue. Chronic inflammation, recurring knee injuries, and severe osteoarthritis almost permanently derailed my ability to run.
Improving my overall health and performance required a strategic—but simple—plan for eating, moving, and living well. Determining what’s right for your body will also be a process, one that I look forward to guiding you through. While I can’t offer any instant or magical solution, I can offer a science-based, step-by-step process for identifying and understanding your body’s underlying needs—and achieving your personal health and performance goals.
