Fueling Up for Success: The Importance of Nutrition for Competitive Figure Skaters

we know that you get nervous
you got nervous before too
right before competition
so nervous yeah
as competitive figure skaters
I know the feeling of not wanting to eat the day of your event
so at least at the very minimum
hydrate and then get your protein in
so I like to use Vital Proteins
what are your thoughts Sean
do you useI think it’s great no
getting protein powder it
it’s filling it gives you hydration
um again
it’s full protein and it’s got carbohydrates
carbohydrates are so important
that is what your body is gonna be burning
you know that’s your fuel
so I totally agree at very least
and look it’s chocolate flavor
who doesn’t like chocolate
I love chocolate hey
I do too
yeah this one is like
so easy I have this almost every single morning
I just put it in my little protein bottle shaker
and then we’re good to go
and as coaches another thing is we need to make sure that we fuel
that’s my biggest mistake
to be honest sometimes
me too
me too
I tend to
do you do this where you’re
you’re a tea drinker I’m a coffee drinker
mmm hmm coffee coffee coffee

and then you’re like oh
