Episode 06: 9 Things I Wish I’d Known About Nutrition as a Gymnast

As a former gymnast, I love gymnastics with all my heart, but I developed some really strange behaviors and habits with food + my body during the sport. It took a long time to unlearn these.

Ultimately, these struggles ended my gymnastics career. Your (or your gymnast’s) story doesn’t have to end like that.

In this episode, you’ll learn: 

• Why #dietculture runs rampant in gymnastics culture.
• The top 9 things I wish I’d known as a gymnast that would have likely given my career a much happier ending.
• When to get help if your gymnast is struggling with nutrition (hint it’s sooner than you think).
