From Training to Recovery, Nutrition That Delivers

Whatever your sport, what you eat shapes performance, recovery and body composition. Many active people under-fuel, mistime meals or rely on supplements with little evidence. This assessment gives you a clear starting point based on your training load, goals and blood results.

Blood test panel: Athlete Essential Panel (6 tests), assessed before and after your programme.

How our dietitians help: We assess your training, diet and body composition, set daily energy, protein and hydration targets and give you a practical fuelling plan.

Building muscle needs a consistent energy surplus, enough protein spread across the day, and progressive resistance training. Many people eat too little overall, rely on shakes or train hard without enough recovery, which limits results.

Blood test panel: Athlete Performance Panel (14 tests), assessed before and after your programme.

How our dietitians help: We set a controlled surplus and protein targets, plan meals around training, review supplements such as creatine for evidence and track muscle gain every 14 days.

Endurance athletes need carbohydrate matched to training, iron, hydration and electrolytes, especially in the UAE heat. Under-fuelling causes fatigue, slow recovery, frequent illness and injury. Iron deficiency is common, particularly in runners and female athletes.

Blood test panel: Athlete Performance Panel (14 tests), assessed before and after your programme.

How our dietitians help: We periodise carbohydrate to training days, plan fuelling during long sessions, build hydration and electrolyte strategies and monitor iron and vitamin D.

Body recomposition means losing fat while maintaining or building muscle. It needs a modest energy deficit, high protein and resistance training. Crash dieting usually sacrifices muscle and performance.

Blood test panel: Athlete Performance Panel (14 tests), assessed before and after your programme.

How our dietitians help: We set a moderate deficit with high, well-distributed protein, time carbohydrates around training and use body composition every 14 days to fine-tune the plan.

Football, padel, tennis, cricket and basketball demand repeated sprints, quick recovery between sessions and good hydration. Poor fuelling, late-night games and back-to-back matches often affect performance and recovery.

Blood test panel: Athlete Essential Panel (6 tests), assessed before and after your programme.

How our dietitians help: We plan pre-match and recovery meals, tournament-day fuelling, hydration in the heat and practical options for training around work or school.

Training in UAE heat and humidity increases sweat, sodium and fluid losses. Dehydration reduces performance and increases the risk of heat illness, while drinking excessive plain water can cause low sodium. Sweat rates vary widely between people.

Blood test panel: Athlete Essential Panel (6 tests), assessed before and after your programme.

How our dietitians help: We estimate your sweat losses, build a personalised hydration and electrolyte plan for training and events, and teach practical self-monitoring.

Race days, competitions and weight-category or physique events need careful planning of fuelling, carbohydrate loading, weight management and recovery. Rapid or extreme weight cutting can harm health and performance.

Blood test panel: Athlete Performance Panel (14 tests), assessed before and after your programme.

How our dietitians help: We build a phase-by-phase plan for the build-up, taper, event day and recovery, with safe, gradual weight targets and no extreme cutting.

Injuries and surgery reduce training but increase needs for protein, energy and certain nutrients for healing. Many athletes cut food too much during injury, losing muscle and slowing recovery.

Blood test panel: Athlete Premium Recovery Panel (20 tests), assessed before and after your programme.

How our dietitians help: We set energy and protein to protect muscle and support healing, adjust intake to reduced training and coordinate with your physiotherapist or surgeon.

Active women are at risk of low iron and low energy availability (RED-S), which can cause missed periods, bone loss, injuries and stalled performance. Missed or irregular periods are a warning sign that needs medical review.

Blood test panel: Athlete Premium Recovery Panel (20 tests), assessed before and after your programme.

How our dietitians help: We match energy intake to training, protect iron and calcium status, plan fuelling around your cycle and coordinate with your doctor where needed.

Young athletes need enough energy and nutrients for both growth and training. Under-fuelling, skipped meals, energy drinks and adult supplements are common risks. Athletes under 18 use our Kids’ Nutrition & Growth Panel instead of adult panels.

Blood test panel: Kids’ Nutrition & Growth Panel (14 tests), assessed before and after your programme.

How our dietitians help: We work with athletes and parents to plan school-day fuelling, training snacks and recovery meals, avoiding unnecessary supplements.

Protein powders, pre-workouts, creatine and “fat burners” are widely used, but many lack evidence, and some contain banned or unsafe substances. Competitive athletes risk failing anti-doping tests.

Blood test panel: Athlete Essential Panel (6 tests), assessed before and after your programme.

How our dietitians help: We review every supplement for evidence, safety and value, recommend only what you need, prefer third-party tested products and focus on food first.
