This an Unofficial Course.
This course provides a comprehensive, science-based exploration of sports nutrition and energy metabolism, designed to help learners understand how the human body produces, utilizes, and regulates energy to support physical performance, recovery, and long-term health. Grounded in exercise physiology and nutritional biochemistry, the course bridges theory and practical application, enabling learners to make informed, evidence-based nutrition decisions for athletic and active populations.
Learners begin by developing a strong foundation in human bioenergetics, including how energy is generated during movement, the role of ATP production pathways, and how total daily energy expenditure is calculated and applied in real-world settings. Key concepts such as metabolic equivalents, energy balance, and energy availability are explained in a clear and applied manner, helping learners understand how training load, lifestyle, and nutrition interact to influence performance and health.
The course then explores macronutrients in depth, examining how carbohydrates, proteins, and fats function during different types of exercise. Learners will gain a clear understanding of carbohydrate classification, glycemic index, glycogen storage and utilization, and their implications for endurance and high-intensity performance. Protein metabolism, amino acid requirements, and muscle protein synthesis are covered with practical guidance for supporting training adaptation and recovery. The role of dietary fats and fiber in metabolic health, aerobic performance, and gut function is also discussed, emphasizing balanced and sustainable nutrition strategies for athletes.
Micronutrients and fluid regulation are addressed through a physiological lens, highlighting how vitamins act as coenzymes in energy metabolism and how minerals and electrolytes support muscle contraction, nerve signaling, and overall performance. Learners will understand the mechanisms of thermoregulation, the performance and cognitive consequences of dehydration, and how to design effective hydration and rehydration strategies tailored to different training environments and individual needs.
A significant portion of the course focuses on nutrition timing and performance strategies. Learners will explore pre-exercise fueling principles, intra-workout carbohydrate and electrolyte delivery, and post-exercise recovery nutrition to optimize muscle protein synthesis and glycogen replenishment. Nutritional periodization across training cycles is explained to help align dietary intake with training goals, competition demands, and body composition management in a healthy and performance-focused manner.
The course also critically examines ergogenic aids using an evidence-based approach. Learners will learn how supplements are classified, which aids are supported by scientific research, and how substances such as creatine, beta-alanine, and caffeine affect physiological performance. Special attention is given to nutritional considerations for vegan athletes and age-specific requirements for youth and master athletes, ensuring inclusive and practical guidance across diverse athletic populations.
By the end of this course, learners will possess a deep understanding of how nutrition and energy metabolism influence athletic performance, recovery, and adaptation. The knowledge gained can be applied by athletes, fitness enthusiasts, coaches, and health or fitness professionals who want to enhance performance outcomes using scientifically grounded nutrition strategies rather than trends or misinformation.
