EVERYONE WANTS TO KNOW THE SECRET TO GETTING THE EDGE ON THE COMPETITION
The secret to getting a nutrition edge in hockey is clearly outlined in The Nutrition Edge for Hockey Performance.
Unfortunately, many aspiring hockey players are misinformed and are turning to supplements to give them an edge. Any top performance, including an Olympic gold medal winning performance, does not rely on supplements. We show this in the form of a pyramid that we call the Top Performance Pyramid. The most important part of the pyramid is the base. Without a good base diet, proper training (which is necessary for improving performance) is not optimized. Supplements in the absence of a good base diet do not work, and may not even work with a good base diet, so they sit precariously on the edge of the pyramid. But, what exactly is a "good base diet"? The Nutrition Edge for Hockey Performance shows hockey players specifically which foods to eat, in what amounts, and when they should be aiming to eat these foods.
