Sports Nutrition Albuquerque
What we choose to put into our bodies is just as important as what we choose to do with them. In fact, without fueling our bodies with the correct vitamins and nutrients, we wouldn’t be able to hit a jump shot, complete a tackle, or beat our best time around the track. Whether you’re wanting to build muscle, tone up, or drop in weight class, it all starts with sports nutrition.
Albuquerque—what are your performance goals? From everyday fitness to professional sports, it takes discipline in many aspects to accomplish your goals, including training, wellness, and nutrition!
At 8 Gradys Performance Center in Albuquerque, sports nutrition is a big part of who we are and what we do! More than just sports and fitness training, we aim to educate our athletes about the importance of nutrition and how health and wellness translate to better success both on and off the field. If you’re ready to take your sports nutrition to the next level—turn to the pros at 8 Gradys Performance Center in New Mexico!
Knowing Nutrition
Vitamins, protein, minerals, fat, carbohydrates, and water are all essential to our bodies, but are only effective when consumed in the right amounts. The calories of the foods we eat are converted into energy, and thus, allows us to function. Not only does eating right help you achieve your performance goals, but when combined with physical activity, can also help you achieve and maintain a healthy weight and lessen your chances for certain diseases, such as diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease, and cancer.
Eating for Exercise
Sports nutrition is unique to each athlete and their sport. Football players want to be big and strong, so their diet will vary from that of a track and field athlete, who strives to be lean and fast. No matter your sport or fitness level, our coaches, trainers, and nutritionists will work with you to determine a customized sports nutrition plan. To combine the ideal balance of nutrition and fitness, we consider and examine the following:
- Your sport or fitness activity
- The type of training or practice you do
- The amount of time you spend performing your sport or fitness activity
