TBP 190 :: Meal Timing for Climbing Performance and Recovery

Published: Jan. 19, 2022, 9:14 p.m.

In this episode, I talk all about how to time your meals and snacks to help your climbing performance, energy levels every day, overall mental well-being, and body composition.

You might think that\xa0when\xa0you eat food isn\u2019t really that important \u2013 or maybe you haven\u2019t given it much thought. But the truth is that it can be almost as important as\xa0what\xa0you eat when it comes to performance, recovery, and overall well-being.\xa0 I\u2019ll go over some sample meal/snack time schedules and tell you about the mistakes I see many people making with it.

I\u2019ll also go over the truth about recovery meals/snacks. Is it super important to eat right after working out? And if so, what should you eat?

This is a recording taken from a 5-day nutrition challenge I did last year in front of a live zoom audience. I talked for about 15 minutes on the topic and then took a bunch of questions from the audience (very common questions, so they\u2019re quite relevant).

A Little about Me

After completing my Bachelor\u2019s degree in Psychology and Zoology at the University of Wisconsin at Madison, I did a 4-year nutrition certificate program at Seven Bowls School of Nutrition, Nourishment, and Healing. I graduated in 2007 as a Certified Integrative Clinical Nutrition Therapist. During those 4 years, I learned about not only nutrition, but herbs, homeopathy, and other alternative practices. I\u2019ve been seeing clients since 2007 and I\u2019ve worked exclusively with climbers since 2013.

If you\u2019re looking for help with your own nutrition\xa0and you feel like you need personalized coaching, I\u2019m taking new clients right now. I also have a program that is self-paced with 4+ hours of video from me, PDF\u2019s, and meal plans laid out for you.
