As the parent of a competitive gymnast, the reality is that more than likely you have NEVER been taught about how to help your gymnast fuel for peak performance.
You may have been told to “just feed her healthy foods” or “don’t eat this” or “just eat clean”.
And then when your gymnast is stuck, struggling, or falling short of her goals (or a picky eater)…you feel helpless.
Your gymnast isn’t just any ordinary kid - they’re a competitive athlete training as much or more than a part-time job each week.Their body works 10x harder than the average kid their age.
Which means their body needs MORE.
You’ve heard your gymnast must “eat clean” to support her gymnastic goals but you find that this is hard to stick with or worse, leaves your gymnast hangry and with lower energy levels
Your gymnast is tired and sore all the time and it breaks your heart; you’ve tried chiropractors, supplements, and physical therapists, but nothing has worked
You know your gymnast is not eating enough before or after practice, often skipping meals only to “overdo” later and you’re not sure how to help her find balance
You’ve noticed your gymnast is frequently and easily irritated; you ask how practice went and you’re met with silence or a bad attitude
Your gymnast has been plagued by injuries, fatigue, and you’re wondering if something is missing from their nutrition
(This is not a monthly membership, this is a 3-month program)
This is not a course or one-size-fits all cookie cutter program.
TBG Program is an in-depth program for parents and competitive gymnasts who want to learn to think like a sports dietitian and know how to fuel anywhere, anytime.
The Balanced Gymnast® Program is a by-application-only 3-month program and the investment starts at $220 a month.
Build a custom fueling plan with meals and snacks that provide the right fuel at the right time for your gymnast (that they’ll actually eat)
Layer on proven Performance Nutrition Strategies to help your gymnast unlock that next level of performance (no more struggles with power, strength, or endurance)
Monitor your gymnast's growth and development to ensure proper fueling and prevent future injury or reinjury (without obsessing or stressing out your gymnast)
Check nutrition and performance related labs and choose supplements your gymnast may need to support optimal performance, energy, and endurance (this is not a one-sized-fits all)
Help your gymnast develop a healthy relationship with food and body (gymnastics is temporary but these struggles can follow your gymnast for life)
In the 3-month Balanced Gymnast® VIP Nutrition Coaching Program, I’ll share what your gymnast should be eating to increase her energy and endurance while reducing her risk for injury. No more stressing, second guessing, or fighting over food. Help your gymnast learn to use nutrition to optimize performance and longevity in the sport!
My approach to supporting gymnasts, parents, and coaches comes from my own experience as a high-level gymnast that struggled with food and her body. Like many of you, my career was plagued with injuries that were largely related to underfueling, even with the “healthiest” diet that still wasn’t what I really needed.

Hi, I’m Christina Anderson, MS, RDN, CSP, LD. I’m a board-certified pediatric/adolescent registered dietitian sports nutritionist . Like your gymnast (and maybe even you), I was a competitive gymnast for 9+ years. It wasn’t until I become a Registered Dietitian Sports Nutritionist that I realized what I had been doing with my nutrition as a gymnast was the complete opposite of what I should have been doing.
How could I (and my parents) have known? Especially when everyone else was doing the same as me. I started my private practice working exclusively with the gymnasts and their parents who are serious about learning how to optimize nutrition and performance.
I’m here to help you challenge commonly held beliefs around nutrition in the sport because you know, “this is how we’ve always done it” doesn’t mean it’s right. If you’re worried about your gymnast’s risk of injury, constant muscle soreness, chronic fatigue, and irritability, or just their ability to reach their big goals + dreams… this program is made for you.
This program will help! Gymnasts (especially teens) may not want to talk about nutrition because it’s deeply personal and they don’t want to feel judged. Often comments about food/bodies have already been made, and this program is a safe way to introduce new, healthy nutrition concepts without pressure. Plus you’ll learn so much from this program as a parent that you can implement on your own, as the preparer of food.
No worries! We will have the replay posted as quickly as possible for you in the group platform. We do ask that you try and attend at least 4 of the 6 coaching calls live but understand if you are super busy or live in a time zone that makes it difficult.
We will meet for 60 minutes every other week (6 times in 12 weeks). You may also have 20-30 mins of “homework” with your gymnast between sessions.
If you are in the US you can use a HSA card to purchase the program. You can also submit a receipt for a FSA but we cannot guarantee payment; it is your responsibility to check with your insurance carrier. We are happy to provide a superbill if they need more information.
We can look into billing your insurance for part of the UPGRADE option that includes 1:1 sessions. We are in-network with BCBS, UHC, Cigna, and Aetna. Coverage is never a guarantee of payment so we always ask parents can comitt to the total cash price.
We have group members who see improvements in performance, nutrition, and relationship with food within the first 1-2 weeks!
Yes, at this time is because we cover how to avoid the female athlete triad and other topics specific to females. If you have a male gymnast please contact me.
