Our sports nutrition programs use metabolic testing and sweat analysis to create personalized fueling strategies. Certified dietitians develop science-backed plans for endurance athletes, focusing on race-day hydration, cramp prevention, and energy optimization. Services include one-on-one consultations, bootcamps, and genetic testing to ensure nutrition aligns with individual physiology and training demands.

Certified USA Triathlon coaches deliver customized training plans integrating swim, bike, run, and strength components. Programs include metabolic testing for zone-based training, virtual/onsite workouts, and race-specific preparation for sprint to Ironman distances. Coaches adapt plans to accommodate work-life balance and travel schedules.
Metabolic Testing
Metabolic and lactate threshold testing measures individual energy expenditure and efficiency. Results inform precise training zones and fueling requirements, optimizing endurance performance while preventing overtraining. Testing supports both nutrition and coaching programs with actionable physiological data.
Swim Analysis
Underwater video analysis identifies stroke inefficiencies through 30-minute private sessions. Certified coaches provide real-time feedback using slow-motion footage, focusing on technique improvements that reduce drag and increase propulsion for triathletes of all skill levels.
Genetic Testing
Genetic analysis reveals individual nutrient metabolism, injury risk, and training response profiles. Results guide personalized supplementation, dietary recommendations, and training modifications, creating targeted strategies for long-term health and athletic performance based on genetic predispositions.
