3 things essential for achieving performance goals

Are you wanting to put 2016 behind you and start fresh? 2017 is your year! PhD Nutrition don’t just deliver sports nutrition, they deliver performance nutrition that inspires and enables you to achieve your performance driven goals. Fat Loss? Strength and Performance? Muscle Development? PhD has students covered.

1. Quality nutrition

Clean and honest products in the form of solid food are always the number one requirement towards a successful performance plan, whether this is in the university gym for a new PB, on the track, in the saddle or on the pitch.

2. Hard work

Undeniably linked with great nutrition comes hard work. Nobody achieved anything without hard work. Just think about how hard you worked for your exams or to get into university. Back in 2005 Sports nutrition was full of disingenuous products from the USA, marketed with ridiculous claims around their products, “Gain 10lbs in 2 weeks”, “Lose 10lbs in 2 weeks” and the PhD founders were tired of reading the rubbish. The necessity for honesty and a genuine message is why PhD was born. It was born out of a need. No one believes that a protein powder is going to add 10lbs of muscle in 2 weeks and if you do, you need a reality check, because you are going to be disappointed.

3. Supplements

PhD Nutrition’s answer has always been the same and it is becoming more and more applicable as modern life adapts even more so to daily regimes of attending lectures, revising for exams or going out with your friends. Try eating a chicken dinner after a 60 minute weights session, try getting the same energy and performance spike before training from a piece of fruit as you can from a great pre-workout energiser, try replicating the slow release effects of a great Micellar Casein-based protein powder before bed and try find a food source as bio-available and as assimilated as quickly as whey protein? Is that enough? Ok, how about finding a great tasting snack when sat in the library that delivers 25 grams of protein with only 1 gram of sugar or when you’re on the way to catch a train back home, have 5 minutes spare and can’t afford to ruin your macros for the day. Try finding an alkalising plant-based protein food source that tastes great, delivers a big protein hit without the sugars you get from a basic juicer drink or one of the many bottled greens drinks you find in the chiller (those that you know are just sugar, in the same way as you know squeezed fruit juice is sugar). You can’t do any of the above and make it fit into your performance-driven lifestyle and that’s where performance nutrition and PhD Supplements makes the difference.
