The module aims to examine the influence of nutrition on sporting performance and to explore the role of nutritional strategies during the preparation for, participation in and recovery from sport and exercise. This module also aims to demonstrate the skills needed to develop a system for self-reflective practice. This will be achieved by upskilling the student with theoretical knowledge of sport and exercise nutrition, in addition teaching students applied skills so that they can assess, design and deliver nutrition advice to support athletes at all levels, whether in a professional or recreational setting.
