Caffeine before training: performance tool or recovery problem? ☕

Potentially both.

Caffeine is one of the most researched performance aids in sport, and there’s good evidence that it can benefit certain types of exercise.

But that doesn’t mean every athlete needs it, or that more is always better.

A few things worth considering:

⚡ Dose: The amount that works for one athlete might leave another feeling anxious, shaky or uncomfortable.

⚡ Timing: That late-afternoon pre-workout could still be affecting your sleep hours after training.

⚡ Purpose: Are you using caffeine strategically, or relying on it to get through every session?

⚡ Recovery: A small performance benefit in one session might not be worth it if your sleep consistently suffers afterwards.

The aim isn’t to avoid caffeine altogether.

It’s to understand how to use it appropriately for your training, lifestyle and individual response.

What’s your go-to before training…coffee, pre-workout or no caffeine at all? 👀

Nutrition advice we’d stop giving athletes… “Just eat clean.” 👀

It’s something we’ve all heard.

But what does it actually mean?

Because you can eat plenty of nutritious foods and still struggle to meet the demands of your training.

You can prioritise vegetables, lean protein and home-cooked meals, but still be missing the carbohydrates or overall energy your body needs.

And you can absolutely include foods that wouldn’t traditionally be labelled as “clean” while supporting your health and performance.

The problem isn’t encouraging people to eat nutritious foods.

It’s when we start categorising food as good or bad, without considering what someone actually needs.

As nutrition coaches, we’re far more interested in questions like:
⚡ Are you eating enough?
⚡ Does your nutrition support your training?
⚡ Are you recovering well?
⚡ Is your approach practical and sustainable?

Because eating “clean” and eating appropriately for your needs aren’t necessarily the same thing.

What’s one piece of nutrition advice you’re tired of hearing? 👀

It’s 5:30 AM. You’ve got training in 30 minutes. Do you need to eat? 👀

If you’re someone who trains early in the morning, you’ll know that sitting down to a full breakfast before your session isn’t always realistic.

But does that mean you should train without eating?

Not necessarily.

It depends on the type of session, how long you’re training, what you’ve eaten previously and how well you tolerate food first thing.

⚡ Shorter, easier sessions? You may be perfectly comfortable training without eating beforehand, particularly if your overall nutrition is supporting your needs.

⚡ Longer or more demanding sessions? Having some carbohydrate available before training can be beneficial for performance, especially if you haven’t eaten since the evening before.

⚡ Struggle with early morning appetite? You don’t need to force down a full meal. Experiment with smaller, familiar options or liquid carbohydrates that are easier to manage.

And remember, your pre-training snack is only one part of the picture.

What you eat throughout the rest of the day matters too, particularly when it comes to supporting recovery and preparing for your next session.

The best fuelling strategy is one that supports your training AND works for your routine.

Things that haunt us as nutrition coaches… 👻

And no, we’re not talking about ghosts. 😂

From feeling guilty about a weekend of eating out to worrying about carbs, rest days and getting everything perfect…

We’ve heard it all!

But here’s the thing: nutrition doesn’t need to come with guilt, punishment or a million unnecessary rules.

Sometimes the scariest thing isn’t what you’re eating.

It’s the amount of pressure you’re putting on yourself to get everything right.

Which one are you guilty of saying? 👀

Happy Halloween from Team FPN! 🎃🖤

You don’t have to be struggling with nutrition to benefit from a nutrition coach. 👀

We often think about nutrition coaching as something we need when things aren’t going well.

When we’re struggling with consistency, unsure what to eat or feeling frustrated with our progress.

But what if things are already going pretty well?

You’re training regularly.
You enjoy your food.
You’ve built some good habits.
You have a reasonable understanding of nutrition.

Does that mean there’s nothing more to gain from coaching?

Not at all.

Sometimes the biggest value comes from having someone help you understand the finer details.

⚡ Are you eating enough to support your training?
⚡ Could your nutrition better support your recovery?
⚡ Do you know how to adapt your food intake when your training or routine changes?
⚡ Are you confident making those decisions independently?

That’s where FPN Everyday Program comes in.

We’re not here to completely overhaul everything you’re doing or hand you a set of rules to follow.

We’re here to understand where you’re at, what you’re working towards and how we can help you build on the foundations you already have.

Because nutrition coaching isn’t always about fixing something that’s wrong.

Sometimes it’s about discovering what’s possible when you have the right support.

Our FPN Everyday intake is OPEN. 🖤

Your next competition starts long before you step onto the competition floor.

The training blocks. The preparation. The recovery. The decisions made between sessions.

Your nutrition is part of all of it.

Inside FPN Performance Program, we work closely with athletes to understand the demands of their training and build individual fuelling strategies that support where they’re trying to go.

From everyday training and recovery to competition preparation and event-day ex*****on.

But it’s not just about having a strategy.

It’s about having a coach who understands your sport, knows you as an athlete and is there to support you through the process.

Your goals. Your strategy. Your team.

What if eating LESS isn’t the answer? 👀

In a world where women are constantly being told to eat less, cut calories and chase a smaller body, we want to show you what happens when you start focusing on FUELLING instead.

Meet our client Steph.

Since February, we’ve never focused on how little Steph could eat. In fact, we’ve done quite the opposite.

Our focus has been simple:
- Consistently fuelling with protein, carbohydrates and fats.
- Prioritising nutrition before, during and after training.
- Increasing food as her training demands increased.
- Building sustainable habits without restriction or obsessive tracking.

The results?

A stronger, more muscular physique. Improved endurance. Better recovery. More energy. And PB after PB in the gym.

But the biggest transformation isn’t just what you can see in these photos.

It’s Steph’s confidence around food. She understands what her body needs, knows when to fuel more and no longer has to overthink every meal.

This is what performance nutrition is all about.

Your body deserves more than constantly being told to eat less.

Stop chasing smaller. Start building stronger.

What does a performance nutrition system actually look like?

One of the biggest things we work on with our Performance athletes is creating a nutritional structure that supports their training, recovery and lifestyle without needing every meal prescribed.

Rather than starting with exactly what an athlete should eat, we establish what their nutrition needs to accomplish.

We begin with the foundations. Consistent anchor meals that provide sufficient energy, carbohydrates, protein and micronutrients to support the demands of training.

From there, we consider the additional touchpoints.

Pre-training fuel. Intra-training nutrition. Immediate recovery. Additional snacks. Hydration.

But here’s the important part: not every athlete needs every touchpoint.

An athlete completing a short morning session will have different requirements from someone completing two demanding sessions across the day.

Some athletes benefit from carbohydrates during training. Others may not need them.

Some require an immediate recovery option between sessions. Others can simply meet those requirements through their next anchor meal.

We then individualise the system around training volume, session duration, goals, digestion, food preferences and lifestyle.

And when circumstances change?

The system adapts.

Because we’re not trying to create athletes who can only execute their nutrition when everything goes perfectly.

We’re not simply creating athletes who can follow a plan. We’re developing athletes who understand how to fuel their performance.

That’s the difference between following a nutrition plan and learning how to fuel performance.

What our athletes have taught us about good coaching. 🖤

As coaches, we spend a lot of time educating, planning and supporting people towards their goals.

But something we don’t talk about enough is how much we learn from the people we work with.

Every athlete brings something different.

Different goals, experiences, challenges and ways of approaching their nutrition.

And over time, those relationships teach us just as much about coaching as the science itself.

We’ve learned that progress doesn’t always look the way you expect it to.

That listening is sometimes more valuable than giving advice.

That the simplest adjustments can make the biggest difference.

And that good coaching isn’t about having the same answer for everyone.

It’s about understanding the person in front of you and knowing what they need from you at that moment.

We’re incredibly grateful for the trust our clients put in us and the relationships we continue to build along the way.

The nutrition is individual. The care is consistent.
