The workshop will be facilitated by Stephen Floyd, Performance Nutritionist and will focus on the importance of optimizing performance and recovery for athletes.

Optimizing performance and recovery in training is key for athletes to make sure they are enhancing the benefits they get from training. As a result, this can help ensure they perform optimally during competitions. Most athletes can get this wrong, especially boxers due to using extreme methods to make weight such as restricting food or fluid intake, this can have negative consequences on performance recovery and health. It has also been shown that most boxers don't fully refuel and rehydrate on time for competition once they do weigh in. The workshop will focus on key nutrition strategies athletes can implement throughout the year to make sure they are well fuelled going into each training session, recovering optimally and also ensuring they get their nutrition right between weigh-ins and competition.

Stephen's presentation will last approximately 60 minutes, followed by a Q&A session via Chat function.
