Nutrition is important to a healthy lifestyle and sometimes as college students/ athletes we are not so focused on our health. School, competing, and possibly an outside job take priority instead of health. Nutrition is something college athletes need to make a priority as well to be in a healthier state but also compete at maximum level. ]]> 2022-04-25 20:33:02 UTC https://padlet.com/mintonmeredith/c3lhmkvn6ph4mfch/wish/2157317962 mintonmeredith https://padlet.com/mintonmeredith/c3lhmkvn6ph4mfch/wish/2157328245 Performance and recovery for college athletes is enhance by attention to nutrient intake. A nutrition plan for health and performance is identifying the right quantity, quality and proper timing of food and fluids needed to support regular training and peak performance. Although, as training demands shift with off season and being in competition season student-athletes also need to adjust their intake and distribution of essential nutrients. This is important when it comes to maintaining a balanced diet that supports academic training and competition needs. (NCAA)]]> 2022-04-25 20:42:15 UTC https://padlet.com/mintonmeredith/c3lhmkvn6ph4mfch/wish/2157328245 mintonmeredith https://padlet.com/mintonmeredith/c3lhmkvn6ph4mfch/wish/2157336648 Research indicates that the nutritional knowledge of athletes is minimal. America's college youth is having a problem with the lack of available healthy fast foods or easily prepared food. College students sometimes have little time between classes and practice but sometimes have little room to meal prep based on dorm rooms. Current research indicates that as athletes knowledge increases, nutritional quality of food choices improves. Student athletes with nutritional knowledge may obtain information to help increase performances and maintain healthy weight. However, sometimes when they are looking to improve their nutrition the information that they recieve can sometimes be unreliable and can contribute to the problem of athletes making poor dietary choices.

Health and Wellness Coaches usually can get a certificate in the modality and then sit down for the National Exam. For Nutrition people can get a minor, an associates, a bachelors, a masters, and even a PhD in Nutrition. There are different types of nutrition though and that is when someone would need a certain degree, license, certification to work in certain Nutrition groups. Nutrition is so broad that different degrees are needed to work in certain groups of Nutrition. For mine it would mostly be Sports Nutrition since I plan on working with athletes in the future, if I decided to further my education in Sports Nutrition. ]]> 2022-04-25 20:57:49 UTC https://padlet.com/mintonmeredith/c3lhmkvn6ph4mfch/wish/2157345075 mintonmeredith https://padlet.com/mintonmeredith/c3lhmkvn6ph4mfch/wish/2157364540 Sport specific training and non-sport specific training needs to be balanced with proper nutrition. Eating a nutrient dense diet is often times not emphasized enough to student-athletes. (Spriet, 2019)]]> 2022-04-25 21:17:54 UTC https://padlet.com/mintonmeredith/c3lhmkvn6ph4mfch/wish/2157364540 mintonmeredith https://padlet.com/mintonmeredith/c3lhmkvn6ph4mfch/wish/2157391519 Former college athlete competing in track and field. I am working towards my degree in Integrative Health, a certificate in Health and Wellness Coaching, and a certificate in Phlebotomy. I will then work towards my bachelor's degree in Integrative Health with a minor in Exercise Science and Nutrition. I will also be working towards my Personal Trainer certification. ]]> 2022-04-25 21:48:52 UTC https://padlet.com/mintonmeredith/c3lhmkvn6ph4mfch/wish/2157391519 mintonmeredith https://padlet.com/mintonmeredith/c3lhmkvn6ph4mfch/wish/2157394638 College students and college athletes do not have the resources to focus on their nutrition in college. When it comes to college athletes it is important to have a nutritional plan to perform at maximum level on the field but also in the classroom. Nutrition is a huge part of an overall healthy lifestyle and not having the knowledge or being aware of the type of nutrition needed for a specific sport isn't great. It is my hope to help student athletes in the future with their overall health and that does include Nutrition. I hope to minor in Nutrition when I move on to finish my bachelors degree. ]]> 2022-04-25 21:52:38 UTC https://padlet.com/mintonmeredith/c3lhmkvn6ph4mfch/wish/2157394638 mintonmeredith https://padlet.com/mintonmeredith/c3lhmkvn6ph4mfch/wish/2157441793 NCAA worked with sports nutritionist to help student athletes know how to eat and what to eat before, during, and after practice. Before practice athletes are supposed to eat foods low in fat and moderate in protein and fiber 2 to 4 hours before practice. During practice athletes should sip on 2 to 4 ounces of sports drink for real-time fuel. After practice a well balanced meal within 2 to 3 hours after finishing and consume fluids to replace losses. (NCAA)]]> 2022-04-25 22:54:58 UTC https://padlet.com/mintonmeredith/c3lhmkvn6ph4mfch/wish/2157441793 mintonmeredith https://padlet.com/mintonmeredith/c3lhmkvn6ph4mfch/wish/2159549417 Restore fluids and electrolytes lost through sweat during activity.
