Sports nutrition allows me to mix my undergraduate and MS studies in exercise physiology with my doctoral studies in nutrition. In this course, each day begins with a simple question: Legit or BS? We cover a sports nutrition claim (usually a supplement!) as the basis for our class, seeking to connect the points we're covering in class to answer if the claim is science-backed or not. In this class, we cover optimizing our nutrition for a variety of sports and dive deep into the metabolism that drives the body. It also gives me an opportunity to talk about my home gym and personal trainer (pictured to the left).
