[Dr James Morehen @James_Morehen]

A superb 2 seasons working with @Chef_Mikebache

I’m gutted to see him leave 🐻, however I’m very excited to see him smash his next role in football

We took the “performance nutrition” game to the next level

Enjoy mate 🙏🏻

COFFEE LOVERS ☕️

The evolution of coffee @BristolBears 🐻

When I started at 🐻 we had a bean2cup which wasn't the most hygienic or best quality coffee

Through the help of players & the club, a superb relationship has continued to be built with the team at Clifton Coffee

[Dr James Morehen @James_Morehen]

Best of British produce @BristolBears 🐻

Here is a 📸 of the food from pre-season thus far.

We pride ourselves on controlling at wholesale source

Where possible, @Chef_Mikebache and I focus on using ingredients and items that are as local as possible in Great Britain 🇬🇧.

A real honour to show @close_nutrition around the @BristolBears High Performance Centre today and showcase how we do things here in bear country.

From the good old days at Widnes Vikings, Warrington Wolves, England Football and now Bears, Graeme has supported me throughout 🤝

[Prof Graeme L. Close @close_nutrition]

Was amazing to see what you and Chef Mike have achieved there. A genuinely world class nutrition set up!!

PERFORMANCE CHEF -
MENTORSHIP PROGRAM

"A performance chef has an opportunity at every meal to influence performance and recovery."

Last year, I started a performance chef mentorship program. Why?

[Michael Bache @Chef_Mikebache]

If vou are a performance chef or nutritionist who wants to discuss how I can support you, your Kitchen team or your business further, please feel free to DM me.

[Michael Bache @Chef_Mikebache]

Since running my mentorship programme, I have gathered feedback and I've concluded I'm able to support individual development. I do this through my own experiences, network, qualifications, innovation and management style using a fresh food first approach.

[Michael Bache @Chef_Mikebache]

To create a complete performance catering provision you need the skill sets of both a Performance Chef and a Performance Nutritionist working together with the same vision and goals.

[Michael Bache @Chef_Mikebache]

A nutritionist is often held accountable for what a kitchen provides, however, they don't know how to get what they require from a commercial kitchen - l've seen this personally and many nutritionists have told me they have this issue.
