Nutrition for Teen Athletes

NUTRITION IS WHAT’S GOING TO SET YOU APART FROM THE COMPETITION.

“Jackie helped me gain 15lbs in my junior year preparing me for college. She has helped me learn how to eat properly, learn portion sizes, and how to shop in the grocery store. She got me in the habit of eating breakfast and now I know exactly foods to eat before practice and a game for my best performance.”

– Connor L, High School Football Player

Where do I ever begin?! My experience with Elina from Athleats was beyond amazing, she had a comprehensive intake to understand my goals, needs and restrictions. I had hit a wall with my weight loss journey and I was so anxious about what else I could try but most importantly I needed some accountability because I was not prioritizing my nutrition. Elina is empathetic and creative at recommending different meal plans, exercises and even accountability actions you can do on your own. I’m so happy to say that I’m down almost 15lbs and I have maintained it, I’m only 7lbs away from the initial goal. Elina THANK YOU!!! I wouldn’t have done this without your support and expertise, you have equipped me with the tools to keep myself on task and also be flexible with myself when things get hectic! These tools you taught me are for life and I’m even implementing them to cook healthier foods for my kiddos!

Working with Jaclyn and Jess has been transformative for me. I have always struggled with putting on weight, understanding what is hurting me, and what I need to get in to have the right energy. They have allowed me to take the necessary step to gain that 1% as a professional, and have truly gone above and beyond. I can not recommend Athleats Nutrition enough!!!

Worked with Emma and it was a life changing experience. I went from feeling exhausted and performing poorly in the gym to being able to increase my squat to 185 and counting through proper nutrition. Movement patterns cleaned up and my mood improved along the way. Most importantly I never felt hungry and actually maintained weight while eating 600 more calories than I had been for years. Emma is patient, well informed, and easy to understand. She helps you make sustainable changes with a focus on clean ingredients and overall health profile. Her wide base of knowledge goes well beyond simple goals like fat loss or muscle growth so would highly recommend setting up a meeting.

I hired Athleats following my shoulder surgery to help me regain the muscle I lost.  Jaclyn did much more for me than that.  Through the program she developed for me, I gained back the 10 pounds of muscle I lost from my injury, plus another 10 that I wasn't expecting.  With all that I have learned from her, it is shocking to me how much time I wasted in the gym for 20 years before meeting her.  And that is because it is clear to me now that I was not getting anywhere near the results I could have gotten from my workouts for all those years since I wasn't consuming the right amounts or types of food.  I have since recommended 4 friends to Athleats and they have all been equally impressed by Jaclyn and thrilled with the results.

Jaclyn is the best! As a very busy mom, Jaclyn has educated me and given me all the tools to not only reach my goals, but sustain a healthier lifestyle. She is always available to answer my questions and provide solutions/recommendations. She is a joy to work with and can't recommend her enough!

Working with Emma was a complete game changer for my overall general health but also performance in the gym and on the on the field. Pretty much all of my life I've just eaten what was there, regardless of its nutritional value, and then just forced myself through hard activities. Sure, it works. I'd eat enough calories and such to be able to perform at a decently high level but I consistently felt like garbage and it was unclear to me which parts I needed to change to get myself not only performing better but feeling better too.

One of the biggest issues I had before working with Emma was labeled as "IBS". I say labeled because I went to multiple GIs and other specialists starting at around age 14 (currently turning 35) and none could help me at all. It didn't help that they all seemed unwilling to work with me even after we confirmed I had a type of SIBO which was causing the IBS symptoms. Once I started working with Emma she recommend we start a SIBO treatment diet which was a bit intensive but the changes were drastic. It took until the final 8 or so days of the 30ish day stretch of consistently sticking to the SIBO diet and my symptoms vanished. I wont go into the details of all of it but this was a significant quality of life improvement. I could finally get through a day without feeling uncomfortable as I did for the last 20 years. Its hard to really explain how uncomfortable you are every day, everywhere you go, with anything you do having to deal with those symptoms and freeing it is to finally fix them. Emma guided me through all that and was patient with my issues, cant stress enough how much my life has improved just with this one portion of what we worked on together.

Once we got out the SIBO treatment and could really focus on and hone in on what I should be eating I noticed significant changes in my workout endurance. I've noticed I no longer feel hot all the time and I no longer sweat profusely in workouts. I've seen a notable amount of reduction in fat (2%) while still eating basically all the things I was before outside of garbage carbs. :D

Emma really unlocked the door for me to understand that its so much simpler than even most of those fad diets try to make it seem. You eat a lot of the basic foods you always did but approach them in different ways and track all that information then adjust based on how you're feeling and how your body is reacting. Anyone can download a macro tracker and look up basic macros for body size but you'll never get to the real results you want unless you work with someone like Emma. She's a game changer in making the complex of diet simple and is very patient with knowing that it takes time for folks to really change.

I'd strongly recommend anyone struggling with GI issues, wanting to understand what macros mean, and/or looking for improvements in the gym or general QoL to work with Emma. She is masterclass and you will not regret the experience.

Emma was so fantastic to work with! She helped me and my husband hone in our nutrition for our active lifestyle so we can perform at our best and feel great. She also provided help with working out meal plans that are easily sustainable for a busy schedule. I can’t recommend working with her enough!

I signed up with Jessica Coghill three months ago, after two years of making no progress with best efforts on my own. With Jessica and the MyFitnessPal app, I became so much more aware of calorie intake and macro balance in my diet. We shifted to higher protein, and fewer starchy carbohydrates. This combined with weightlifting, and I’ve successfully shifted 6 pounds from fat to muscle. Now within 2 pounds of my target weight. She’s so knowledgeable about how food is intertwined with our lifestyle, travel, social interactions, and how all of this impacts any concurrent medical issues.  Got me over the hump!. Everything I had hoped for.

Emma was amazing to work with! Coming off of a year of illness following brain surgery, my high school freshman was in need of some nutritional tweaks to overhaul his immune system and fuel his body to sustain intense swim workouts 6 days a week. Not only was Emma’s knowledge invaluable, but she made the changes practical and attainable for our busy lifestyle. Braden is noticing changes in how he feels day to day, and even more-so when he is competing. We are so grateful for your help, Emma! Thank you for everything!
