SOCCER NUTRITION COURSE

“Let’s go people, all together – This is football – Stop the crap – Strength in your legs and the biggest to win is Portugal”* – but how to give strength to your legs? In answering this very complex question we find nutrition playing a key role more than ever. If we meet the requirements and the evolution of the game, we realize that the advantage conferred by precise, periodized and personalized nutritional strategies is precious in obtaining the maximum performance of the athlete.

Football is a sport whose physical demands are enormous. Facts:

Distance covered per game and per player – 9 to 14 km
Running speed varies between 1.4 and 10 m s-1
Only 1 to 12% of the distance covered is sprinted
Players utilize all sources involved in ATP resynthesis
+ 90% of energy comes from aerobic processes
Games can be separated by just over 48 hours

Nutritional planning and in-depth knowledge of bioenergetics are crucial to meet the needs of footballers and clubs. Food and nutrition have a significant impact on health and performance. Likewise, the Football Nutrition Advanced Course brings together a team of teachers with advanced knowledge and skills in the topics to be developed and with the ability to attack and defend the premises to be discussed, based on facts and professional practice in high performance football teams. This course represents an opportunity to advance and extend good practices in nutrition sciences through professional and amateur football, male and female, from younger players to adults and with different diets.

Among others, this course aims to develop knowledge, skills and performance in nutritional monitoring at the level of:

Daily nutritional and food routines
Body composition assessment and management
Game day nutritional planning
Biological, cultural and other contexts
Recovery
Supplementation.

Classes will be periodized, constituting, per say, as theoretical-practical opportunities to consolidate and develop skills in the exercise of food and nutritional monitoring in football.
