Coach Adam Nelson

I was fortunate enough to hear Wendi speak at the 2020 NHSSCA Michigan State. She did an outstanding job blending her nutritional expertise with practical, real life tips and recommendations. Not only is Wendi well versed in current sports nutrition research, but Wendi understands the demands our athletes endure beyond the weight room and classroom. Wendi was able to answer many of the diverse and challenging questions asked by coaches at the clinic with patience and respect. With questionable information available from a multitude of sources instantaneously, Wendi relies on the peer reviewed research to form her opinions. Most importantly, it quickly became clear to me that she works with the athleteโ€™s best interest in mind.

Wendi is an extremely knowledgeable professional on the topics of sports nutrition and itโ€™s impact on athletic performance and daily life. Wendi possesses the ability to build trust with her athletes in order to teach them how to properly fuel themselves to optimize performance. Wendi is a practitioner who conducts her work using evidence based science. She develops individualized plans for athletes based on their goals and needs, I would confidently refer my athletes to her and know they are getting quality assistance. I consider myself lucky to have learned from and worked with Wendi during our time at the University of Wisconsin-Stout!

Is Your Athlete Fueling Enough to Perform & Stay Healthy?

Most high school and college athletes donโ€™t struggle because they arenโ€™t training hard enough.

They struggle because they are:

๐Ÿ‘‰Under-fueling without realizing it
๐Ÿ‘‰ย Eating โ€œhealthyโ€ but not enough for sport
๐Ÿ‘‰Training hard while under-recovering

Over time, this leads to:
โ€“ Low energy
โ€“ Poor recovery
โ€“ Increased injury risk

I created a free Athlete Fueling Checklist to help parents and athletes identify common fueling mistakes and understand what to fix next.
