How to Manage an Immediate Injury

What is done in the first 24-48 hours following an athletic injury is very important and can often reduce the time of recovery by weeks. As always, if you have a significant injury you should seek medical attention immediately, but if you have a sprain or strain, the acronym P.O.L.I.C.E. can be used to help guide you in managing the immediate injury to encourage speedy recovery.

Nutrition for Environmental Conditions

Another gem from our friends at Performance Nutrition Academy. Did you know that nutrition can help you tolerate exercise in extreme environmental situations (heat and cold). And its not only about running in an extreme race in the desert. Your environment can be hot like playing beach volleyball or soccer in the summer, or cross country skiing in the winter. Learn what you can do to optimize performance and recovery in these environments.

Supplements

The Australian Institute of Sport lays out an informative framework to help sport professionals & athletes choose a supplement that may be ideal for them. This can be used this as a reference when providing supplement information to athletes.
