Sports Nutrition Consults

Meet with Jared Berg in person or online to define your nutrition needs, assess your current nutrition habits, and craft a science-based sports nutrition plan to help you achieve your performance goals.

Race Day Nutrition Plans

Nutrition can make or break your race, leading to a great performance—or negating months of training. Don’t wait until the last minute to think about nutrition; start planning for your best event with our Race Day Nutrition Plan.

Our systematic approach combines lab-grade testing and personalized experimentation to create a custom race day nutrition plan to fuel your best performance.

Metabolic Cart Testing

Using our metabolic cart in our Boulder-based lab and lactate testing, we will guide you through the testing protocol to define your training zones via heart rate, power, and pace. The analysis of your results will help you gain a thorough understanding of the metabolic and energy demands of your personal race pace. You will also discover how your body burns carbohydrates and fat at different intensities, including training and race paces.

Sweat Analysis and Hydration Strategy

Fueling is just half the equation. By measuring how your body loses liquids, we will craft a hydration and electrolyte replacement strategy that can help you ensure you don’t sweat out your race performance. This analysis includes sweat rate, sodium concentration analysis, and a personal hydration and electrolyte replacement plan.

Your Race Day Sports Nutrition Plan

This plan combines the results of your metabolic and hydration profiles into one personalized plan for your event. Jared will use your personal preferences and GI tolerances along with your test results to develop a nutrition plan for your race morning, during your race, and a post-nutrition nutrition plan – all with clear targets for carb, protein, calories, hydration, and electrolytes.
