Individual consultations

Individual consultations are the perfect way to maximise your performance.  Before your consultation you will be asked to fill out an initial questionnaire and food diary. At your first consultation we will discuss your goals, current practices and daily intake, and then work together to make a plan to improve your diet to maximise performance.  We will also tailor specific sports nutrition strategies to your event(s) and monitor these.  After your consultation you will be emailed a full performance plan with all of the information and resources that you need to maximise your performance.  Follow up consultations can then be booked to check progress, either in person or via our email follow up option.  Click here for more infomormation on individual consultations including costs.   If you are based out of the Lower North Island Sarah offers online consulting - click here for more details
