What Our Members Say

"As a dietician, I’ve completed both an undergrad and a masters in Dietetics. Being accredited with the Sports Nutrition Association has provided me with a pathway to pursue my business and career to its fullest potential because know that I am insured and covered by a legitimate governing body."

Tyarra Nelson & Jack Radford-Smith@thebodybuildingdietitians

”With SNA I feel confident knowing they're insured and looking after us as coaches. A lot of certifications out there want to give you something quick that may not actually cover you for what you need. With SNA I always feel like they care and they’re always checking in and looking to continue my education.”

Tyson Brown@tysonthetrainerr

”I only recommend SNA (other than uni Degrees) because other courses simply won’t cover you to practice.”

Courtney@courtney_healthandfitness

"The course exceeded my expectations, I learnt so much info about nutrition and it really opened my eyes to what quality nutrition practices that are research informed are really about."

Jana Sterling Hammond@janasterlinghammond

"Obviously my degree didn’t give me all the info I needed to go and coach people in nutrition. So for me the cert was about being able to build out my current base of knowledge and make it applicable to those I was already coaching."

Anna Wishnowsky@annawishfitness

"I’ve always wanted to be able to provide my clients with direct and structured nutritional advice, and being an accredited Sports Nutritionist with SNA has allowed me to do exactly that whilst being insured. I was able to get credit based on some of the units I had covered in my previous studies."

What fuel source will be ideal for your training?

What fuel source will be ideal for your training?

This will differs depending on the training session you are doing

Depending on the time taken and the intensity of the training different energy systems and fuel sources will be predominating the session.

In this example, we are looking at what fuel source is ideal for high-intensity training

The HIIT session we have based this on is as follows:

Maximal efforts for short durations - In this case:
10 seconds of maximal sprints on the assault bike

Rest time is enough to allow for recovery to be able to complete another maximal effort e.g.
2-5 mins depending on the individual
NB: If rest time is too short, you will not be able to a maximal, high-intensity effort on the next sprint.

As the maximal sprint is short in duration, the energy system in use will be the ATP-PC system

Which is responsible for high-power, exercises for a short duration.

Being maximal effort, heart rate will be be pushed over 85% of MaxHR

Carbohydrates fuel this, as this is the body’s preferred fuel source at intensities over 85% of MaxHR.

Quick tips:
- Use the type of activity and duration to identify the energy system/s involved
Use the % of max HR or VO2 to help in identifying the fuel source

As a sports nutritionist; Understanding the energy systems and fuel sources is essential.
