Hi,
I’m Victoria, nutritionist and FAHL here at Durham Women FC.
A resource that I found influenced my work was this paper ‘Carbohydrate fear, skinfold targets and body image issues: a qualitative analysis of
player and stakeholder perceptions of the nutrition culture within elite female soccer’Carbohydrate fear, skinfold targets and body image issues: a qualitative analysis of player and stak
I have found that there is a a high prevalence of fear of carbohydrates within my team, and some of this stems from athletes who have been at other clubs (mainly outside the UK). Its impacted my practice as I now am really mindful of using positive language and creating a positive food environment. This includes using environmental ‘nudges’ such as having a carbohydrate snack table, and also wider staff education to ensure cohesion in messaging across the MDT.
