You can be disciplined with your food and still arrive at a basketball game with the wrong pre-competition meal behind you.

Because the best meal before tip-off is not simply the one that looks healthiest.

It has to fit how much time you have, how well you digest it, and what the game is going to demand from you.

That becomes even more important when game day includes travel, meetings, shootaround, treatment, and long gaps between meals.

The mistake can happen before you ever step on court.

10/07/2026

You can sleep eight hours after a long-haul flight and still wake up completely out of sync for competition.

That is because sleep alone does not reset your body clock.

Light timing is one of the strongest signals.

Flying east and flying west require different strategies, and getting that timing wrong can make jet lag harder to shake.

Meal timing can help your body adapt too, but the real plan depends on how many time zones you cross, which direction you travel, and when you need to perform.

If you compete internationally, jet lag should not be something you try to fix after you land.

It should already be part of your travel strategy before you leave.

utta Leerdam was already competing at the highest level before Milano Cortina.

She was already eating nutritious foods.

And yet, something about how she fueled still had to change before she won Olympic gold.

That is the part worth paying attention to.

You can be disciplined with your food, train seriously, and still have a gap between what you are eating and what your training actually demands.

Maybe you feel strong for most of the session.

Then the final twenty minutes arrive.

Your legs change. Your focus drops. Your decisions do not feel as sharp.

You call it a bad day.

But when the same pattern keeps appearing under the same demands, it may not be random.

10/05/2026

You can do everything right in training and still arrive at competition with a fueling strategy that leaves you exposed late in the match.

The problem is that the mistake may not feel obvious at kickoff.

Your glycogen availability, carbohydrate preparation, sodium strategy and halftime fueling all influence what you still have available when the match becomes more demanding.

That is why “I ate before the game” or “I drank enough water” tells me very little about whether you were actually prepared.

The important question is whether your strategy matched the demands of football.

This carousel covers four mistakes that can quietly undermine your match-day preparation.

You have access to sports nutrition tools that many of the players I grew up watching could never have imagined.

That should give you an advantage.

But only if you actually use it.

I grew up in Genova during Italian football’s golden era, watching some of the biggest names in the game perform without the individualized fueling, hydration, recovery and monitoring systems available to professional players today.

They became legends anyway.

That doesn’t mean you should copy what they did.

It means you should ask yourself a harder question:

If the science, technology and support around you are better now, is your sports nutrition actually more advanced too?

Because having access to more information is not the same as turning it into performance.

10/01/2026

You compete at a professional level.

So why are so many sports nutrition recommendations still being applied to you without enough female-specific data behind them?

Female participation in sports science research has improved considerably, but studies that properly account for menstrual status, hormonal contraception and female physiology remain limited.

That becomes especially important when you start talking about energy availability.

If your intake consistently fails to match the demands of training and competition, the consequences can extend far beyond fatigue.

Menstrual function, bone health, recovery, injury risk and performance can all be affected.

Elite female athletes need sports nutrition strategies built around the actual demands of their physiology and sport, not simply adapted from male-based models.

Your hydration protocol can work perfectly at one Grand Prix and still be wrong for the next one.

That’s what makes this difficult.

You can hit every number the team planned and still arrive at the final part of the race with something missing.

Not because you ignored the protocol.

Because the protocol never changed.

If your hydration targets are being carried from Bahrain to Monza without asking what changed in between, that’s the conversation I’d have before the car leaves the garage.

The nutrition mistakes that matter most aren’t always the obvious ones.

You already know nutrition affects your performance and recovery.

But some decisions that seem completely reasonable can become mistakes depending on your training load, recovery window, competition schedule, environment, or where you are in your competition.

And that’s what makes them easy to miss.

I break down 10 nutrition mistakes I see athletes making more often.

A few might surprise you.

There’s a moment I see athletes get excited about: the number on the scale is finally dropping, they’re looking leaner, and everyone around them is telling them how good they look.

Naturally, it feels like confirmation that the plan is working.

But I’d ask a different question.

What if the progress everyone can see is distracting you from the progress that actually matters?

That’s a much harder question to answer—and your mirror isn’t going to help you with it.

I broke this down in the carousel because getting leaner can mean very different things when your goal isn’t simply to look different, but to perform at your best.

Take a look through it and then think about your own situation.

09/28/2026

Formula 1 might be the most data-obsessed sport in the world.

Thousands of variables are monitored, analyzed, and adjusted in the pursuit of fractions of a second.

But there’s one part of the performance equation that gets far less attention than the car.

The person driving it.

And when you look at what happens to a driver during a race, nutrition and hydration become a much bigger performance conversation than most drivers realize.
