JOIN FUEL SCHOOL TODAY!
Throwing random food at their day isnât going to work if your teen wants to take their performance to the next level!
I see this over and over. Athletes train hard but donât fuel effectively. Their lack of strategy completely undermines their training and their performance progression drops or stops. They think its their training so they train harder, repeat the same cycle and shockkkk, same thing happens again. A lack of training and hard work is not the problem!
Donât let your teen athlete waste all their time at the court, track, gym, pool or field training without the knowledge of how to confidently fuel their training, recovery, performance and health. The day teenage athletes learn how to use food as fuelâŠtheir game changes forever đ„
Fuelling your goals is the only way to win on and off the field, court, track or pool.
With a teenage athlete who is growing and developing, juggling before and after school training, weekend competitions, school, homework, exams and friends...How do they know what to eat, when to eat and how much to eat? How do they confidently fuel their goals? It's a lot right...
Support your teen to eat, think and create habits that will help them stay one step ahead of their competition.

Hi, I'm Ali
As an Advanced Sports Dietitian and a mum of THREE multisport teens/tweens đ©đŠđ§, I understand the challenges you face. I mean, I REALLY get it đ« .
The mental load is relentless. The responsibility of feeding growing and developing athletes can be stressful, frustrating, and overwhelming. But you are not alone. I care deeply about your teenage athlete's growth and development, and this is my guiding principle:
I want your teen athlete to fuel more so they feel alive. I want to show your athlete what it feels like to THRIVE and not just SURVIVE another training session.
As a sports dietitian with over twenty years of experience working with elite athletes, teams, and Olympians, I have learned that most athletes lack the confidence to fuel their bodies to achieve their goals and, consequently, their health, wellbeing, and performance suffer. đ
JOIN FUEL SCHOOL NOW
Remember, they are human âBEINGSâ first and foremost, and then humans âDOINGâ incredible things in their sport.
When your teen is off the field, court, track, pool, or gym, they are still growing, developing teenagers. They go to school, try to concentrate in class, study at night, and somehow find the time and energy to hang out with friends.
Letâs make sure your teenage athlete has the energy for all that. The human âstuffâ. The fun âstuffâ đ„ł. I would love to show you that fuelling your teen athlete doesnât have to be complicated, even though itâs a lot (of food, that is) đ.
Iâm here to help you FUEL YOUR ATHLETE đ«¶.

Why you can no longer ignore your teen athlete's under fuelling:
Affects All Genders
Underfuelling impacts both males and females.75% of female athletes may be under fuelling, with 1 in 3 experiencing two or more symptoms. 40% of individuals aged 11-17 with disordered eating behaviours identify as male.
Health Risks
Under fuelling can disrupt hormone regulation and reproductive health and lead to vitamin and mineral deficiencies. It also increases the risk of bone stress and fractures, digestive issues, higher injury and illness risks, and stunted growth.
Wellbeing Risks
Include poor sleep, always feeling tired, difficulty concentrating, constant thoughts of food, being HANGRY or mood changes with an increased risk of facing mental health challenges.
Performance Impacts
Reduced training response, slower reaction times, impaired judgment, poor decision-making, and decreased muscle strength, power, speed, and endurance.
Performance nutrition doesn't have to be difficult or time-consuming!!
All you need is a strong fuelling plan and routine that works for your athlete and family.Â

THE DAY TEENAGE ATHLETES LEARN TO USE FOOD AS FUEL, THEIR GAME CHANGES FOREVER!
"We would highly recommend Fuel School to any goal-oriented athlete".
A number of athletes we coach have participated in Aliâs online performance nutrition hub. The knowledge these athletes gained from the program has allowed them to take personal agency to ensure they are set up for the physical rigour of training and competition - it can not be of coincidence that these athletes have achieved a summer season of personal bests and National Championship qualifiers. We believe Fuel School doesnât just educate athletes on their nutritional demands, but prepares athletes, particularly junior athletes, to realise that they wonât achieve their goals until they start living like the elite athlete they strive to be."
