Practical Sports Nutrition for Recovery, Hydration, Performance & Long-Term Athletic Health
An evidence-informed online course presented by Stephanie Hnatiuk exploring the real-world foundations of sports nutrition for athletes, therapists, rehabilitation professionals, and fitness practitioners.
Sports nutrition has become one of the most talked-about areas in modern health and fitness — but it is also one of the most misunderstood.
Athletes and active individuals are constantly exposed to conflicting advice about carbohydrates, protein, supplements, hydration, body composition, meal timing, and recovery strategies. Social media and marketing often promote extreme approaches, unrealistic expectations, and unnecessary complexity.
This course takes a different approach.
Presented by sports dietitian and educator Stephanie Hnatiuk, this course focuses on practical, sustainable, and evidence-informed nutrition strategies that support performance, recovery, hydration, resilience, and long-term athlete wellbeing.
Rather than chasing perfection or promoting restrictive dieting trends, Stephanie helps learners understand the foundational principles that genuinely support athletic performance in the real world.
