Easy Nutrition Facts from the Trainer to the Pro's

Hey guys, it's been a while since i've posted.

There has been a lot going on. As many of you know we at Pair & Marotta Peak Performance have been training many of the CSUB teams and some have had, or are in the middle of the best season's ever!!
  • Women's Basketball earned their first Division I post-season invite, and as the #7 seed out of 8 teams, almost knocked off the #2 seed Texas A&M-Corpus Christi in overtime...
  • Men's swim finished 3rd in their conference championships and earned a top 10 National Ranking of mid-major schools (9th)...
  • CSUB Baseball got off to a hot start sweeping Air Force in a 4 game series...
  • All teams had good years considering they are in only their 3rd year of D-1 play. Next year all teams will be post-season eligible
However, most of you and your teams don't play college baseball or any other college sport. But one thing we have tried to instill in the athletes at CSUB is the concept of quality nutrition = quality performance.

Quality nutrition allows the body to recover faster, perform at a higher intensity longer as well as reduce the likelihood of injury, dehydration and other effects of poor nutrition.

Many of you have emailed me with questions about nutrition in the past. I have suggested a few different options, such as Dr. Chris Mohr's "Fuel Like a Champion" DVD and have also sent out my own recommendations for optimal nutrition.

However, there is a new resource I would like to introduce you to. His name is Jeff Cavaliere. Jeff was a strength and conditioning specialist for the New York Mets 2 years ago and now runs a very successful youth performance facility.

He has also recently gotten BIG into youth nutrition. Why? Because he knows how important it is. Just take a look at his free report, "14 Surprising Facts About Sports Nutrition." It's loaded with great tips on how to prepare your child for the demands of school AND sports. He knows what it's like to eat "hot lunch" in the cafeteria, and he knows what happens when you ditch your usual lunch of soda and frito boats for good, high quality REAL food!

So again, check out his free report and then dig into what he has to say. I promise it will help your young athlete more than you would ever believe!!
