The Curriculum

MODULE DEEPDIVE

MODULE 1:
CARBOHYDRATES: POWERING TRAINING & COMPETITION

Understand training fuel as a strategic lever for high-intensity capacity. Master carbohydrate classification pathways, precision pre-exercise dosing protocols based on body mass, and mixed-source absorption mechanics to completely eliminate gastrointestinal distress.

  • Key Takeaway: Carbohydrate timing improves high-intensity capacity before exercise, delays fatigue during training, and drastically accelerates glycogen replenishment afterward.
  • Post-Module Activities: Multi-Choice Quiz.

MODULE 3:
FATS: SUPPORTING ENERGY, HORMONES & HEALTH

Master the role of dietary fats as a sustainable fuel source for low-to-moderate intensity exercise and endurance training. Learn how fatty acids protect cellular structure, optimise critical performance hormones, and insulate nervous systems during impact sports.

  • Key Takeaway: Regularly prioritise monounsaturated fats and Omega-3 rich foods to actively manage exercise-induced inflammation, while strictly limiting trans fats that degrade systemic performance.
  • Post-Module Activities: Multi-Choice Quiz.

MODULE 4:
MICRONUTRIENTS: THE HIDDEN DRIVERS OF PERFORMANCE

Understand how vitamins and antioxidants manage the physical stress and inflammation of intense training. Master the pathways of cellular growth, tissue repair, and energy metabolism by optimising your intake of critical fat-soluble and water-soluble vitamins.

  • Key Takeaway: Deeply coloured fruits and vegetables supply essential antioxidants, while B-Vitamins serve as the baseline energy producers required to convert food into cellular ATP and optimise aerobic capacity.
  • Post-Module Activities: Multi-Choice Quiz.

MODULE 5:
MINERALS FOR OPTIMISING PERFORMANCE

Master the mechanical and physiological roles of fundamental minerals in oxygen delivery, muscular contraction, and skeletal strength. Learn how intense exercise triggers the hepcidin hormone response to block iron pathways, and discover how to time meals to enhance nutrient bioavailability.

  • Key Takeaway: Maintain robust iron stores to shield aerobic capacity from foot-strike haemolysis, while balancing calcium and magnesium intake to control nerve transmissions and accelerate muscle relaxation.
  • Post-Module Activities: Multi-Choice Quiz.

MODULE 6:
HYDRATION: OPTIMISING PERFORMANCE & RECOVERY

Master the systematic integration of fluid mechanics and evidence-based supplementation across competitive blocks. Learn to calculate sweat rates, construct targeted electrolyte replacement strategies, and evaluate ergogenic aids to maximise competition-day performance.

  • Key Takeaway: Dehydration drastically impairs cognitive choice and aerobic output. Periodise your hydration protocols to training intensity, and implement third-party tested supplements to support safe athletic adaptations.
