BRYONY’S PHILOSOPHY
As an athlete, performance chef or sports nutritionist, you understand how critical nutrition is to performance and the way food makes you feel.
ENERGY. Bryony has never worked with a high performer who didn’t want more. So how do we get more? Nutrition, hydration, and sleep. When one is not right, it affects the others. Nutritional needs are different for every individual, so how do we know if we are nailing it and unlocking that potential? It comes down to the way food makes a person feel. This comes from the right balance of macro-nutrients, timing, how to practically consume food if training or competing. You probably have a great comprehension of macros and all the different nutrients needed, but how do you translate that into actual food that either yourself or your clients actually want to eat? Gender, age, sporting discipline, intensity and food preferences all differ from person to person. How do you practically apply the nutrients needed into a delicious dish which takes into account all these different aspects? Bryony understands these mechanics and how they drive success.
RECOVERY. Whether recovering from surgery, an injury, the niggles that start to occur because of repetitive use, age, or everyday wear and tear…… Nutrition and sleep are invaluable to the body and its ability to repair, and the speed of that recovery. It’s not just the right nutrition but the timing of that nutrition. Sleep is also a critical factor as it is the only time the body gets to repair. How do you aid the recovery process through food and translate these nutritional requirements into delicious dishes? Again, the combination of these elements is at the heart of Bryony’s expertise.
LOGISTICS. Travel to an event, jet lag, different countries, how do you navigate your nutrition, hydration, and sleep during this time? This can be a minefield, from staying hydrated on a plane while also trying to sleep, and not wanting to drink so much that you wake up to seek relief. Traveling to an event and navigating consumption, how to eat and what to eat and when to eat, in a different country, and the produce is different. All these situations can add stress to a situation where you want to concentrate your energy on your performance – but not with Bryony’s expert guidance…
ENJOYMENT. So what is the answer, what’s the secret recipe? How do you turn nutritional needs into a dish/smoothie/energy bar that is enjoyable, and not simply food as fuel? When you enjoy the food, you are consuming and the way food makes someone feel, you can simply apply that to any performance situation in order to ensure consistency. Your secret weapon lies in your food.
Bryony’s philosophy of ENJOYMENT + SIMPLICITY = CONSISTENCY is the driving force for performance, which is why her clients see and feel the difference – and that’s what ultimately sets them apart from the competition.
