Do you work with athletes? Or clients you would consider high-performers?

Would you like to know the difference between diet/exercise and fueling/training?

Or do you just want some real-world and practical tips to improve your nutrition?

If so, you’re going to LOVE today’s episode!

Christina Chu is a Chicago-based sports dietitian and CEO of Christina Chu Sports Nutrition Inc. She supports athletes from youth baseball to professional combat athletes through individual nutrition counseling and team talks.

But most importantly, I think Christina does an amazing job of not only making nutrition simple and easy to understand, but incredibly practical as well.

So in this episode, we’re going to take a deep dive into the world of nutrition, and figure out how to optimize fueling for high-performing clients and athletes.

Let’s do this!

Sometimes the lesson learned can be a great lesson in and of itself. You want to go on a low-carb diet? Fine – let’s try it for two weeks and see how you feel. But when we’re done, we have to do it my way for 2 weeks as well. – Christina Chu

This Week on the Physical Prep Podcast:

Christina’s background and how she knew early-on she wanted to be a dietitian – albeit not in the sports realm!
The foundations of athletic fueling, and what it means to create a “performance plate.”
Why talking about nutrition in visuals is so important to help clients/athletes understand portion sizes.
Carbohydrates: Performance fueling source? Or fattening macro we should all be scared of?
How Christina deals with athletes that may be fearful of increasing calories or altering macros.
Why it’s so important to meet people where they’re at – both in nutrition and in training.
The biggest nutritional myths and misconceptions she deals with on a regular basis.
Christina’s thoughts on supplements, along with the Top 3 supplements she recommends (plus a potential “bonus” supplement).
Why she developed her Patreon program, and how it helps fill the gap between paid and high-level, 1:1 nutritional coaching and counseling.
A really fun lightning round where we talk about her hate for salt and pepper, her favorite treat foods, and her best tips on how to grocery shop more effectively.
