What the pro athletes and experts say 

Athletes dedicate their lives to perfecting their sport. Whilst training is a huge part of that, so is nutrition. This is true regardless of the sport. William Hill asked the pros to share some of their top nutrition tips.  Click here to view the full interviews

Jonny Brownlee “Stick to the plan, it needs to be a long-term plan if you want to continue with eating healthily, as it was then become a habit. There may be days where you don’t eat so well – and if so, don’t beat yourself up and try to overcompensate the next day. Just go back to your plan and eat consistently well.”

Jason Bell “We’re all different. Our bodies are different and the way they respond to things is different, so you have to listen to your body. It will tell you what is and isn’t good for you.”

David Jackson “Eat for health and you’ll get performance. Too often, nutrition strategies are created while looking for a short cut, quick win or magic supplement. Your body will only be able to perform optimally if you’re healthy and have all the nutrition to allow it to function. Having a protein shake isn’t the solution if other areas of your diet are lacking.”
