HS Athlete 1st❓to me: “What do you think of pre-workout?”

Me: “Are you eating 3-4 balanced meals with high-quality🍳protein? Drinking 80 oz.💧? Sleeping 7-9 hours?”

Athlete: “No, I don't have time.”

Me: “Okay, until you do that, here's the equivalent of what you're doing.” 🩹

"Using a pre-workout for energy when you haven't been sleeping well, hydrating, or eating consistently is like rearranging furniture on a sinking ship."
- @Wendi_Irlbeck

This is one of my favorite things to say to our new parents that always makes their young athletes laugh during a consult. But I have several linked videos in our performance resources for them to watch on my Youtube or IG page.

Share this with a teen athlete who is trying to convince you they "need caffeine" and then show them all my other videos/graphics on fueling up.

Sleep is king and nutrition is queen.

Check this out @FentonAD for some great tips to eating better during the day!

I am still getting DMs about "pre-workouts". You may not like this but it is true. Listen up...

🚢If you're so tired you need a dangerous amount of caffeine to train as a young or adult athlete you're basically rearranging furniture on a sinking ship. Get to bed & eat real food!

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

When people share their problems, they're not always looking for solutions. They're often seeking support.

Sharing bad news may not make them feel better, but it does bring you closer.

The most basic form of compassion is not alleviating distress. It's acknowledging distress.
