Supplements in Sport: Creatine, Protein, Caffeine and More!
Helping you make confident, informed choices about supplements in youth sport
But only when you know what actually matters!
Your teen is hearing about supplements everywhere right now … from teammates, coaches, and social media, so let’s make sure they have a plan that actually supports their health and performance (and doesn’t waste your money).
Supplements in sport can feel like a lot. There are protein powders, creatine, pre-workouts, fat-burners, electrolytes, and a long list of vitamins and minerals — all promising better performance, faster recovery, and a competitive edge.
But with so much information (and misinformation) out there, it’s easy to feel unsure about what’s safe, what’s effective, and what’s even appropriate for a growing athlete.
In this webinar, we’ll break it all down in a clear and practical way so you can make confident decisions, support your athlete’s performance, and focus on what truly makes the biggest impact.
You’re a parent, coach, or trainer trying to make sense of all the supplement noise (because apparently every 14-year-old now “needs” creatine 🙃)
You’ve stood in the supplement aisle or scrolled online thinking, “Do we actually need any of this… or is this just expensive powder?”
You want to know what’s safe, effective, and appropriate for a growing athlete and what’s a hard NO
You want clear, evidence-based guidance on protein powders, vitamins, caffeine, and more, without the overwhelm!
Learn exactly which supplements your athlete would benefit from taking!
