Our Approach
How We Approach It
We start with a detailed assessment of your training schedule, goals, current dietary intake, and any specific challenges you're facing, from fatigue and slow recovery to digestive discomfort during exercise.
From there, Maryke builds a personalised nutrition strategy that supports your training load, recovery needs, and long-term health. This includes guidance on fuelling around sessions, hydration, supplementation where appropriate, and periodised nutrition for competition.
The goal is practical, sustainable nutrition that fits your lifestyle, not rigid meal plans that don't last. We work with you over time to refine and adjust as your training evolves.

Understanding Sports Nutrition
Why It Matters
Sports nutrition is about more than just eating well, it's about strategically fuelling your body to match your physical demands. The right nutrition plan can improve endurance, speed recovery, reduce injury risk, and help you perform at your best consistently.
A registered dietitian with experience in sports nutrition understands the science behind energy systems, macronutrient timing, hydration strategies, and the role of micronutrients in athletic performance. This is personalised guidance based on evidence, not generic advice.
At Expand Health, our approach to sports nutrition considers the whole person: training load, sleep, stress, gut health, and long-term wellbeing. Whether you're an elite competitor or someone who trains regularly to stay healthy, we help you eat in a way that supports both performance and longevity.
Common areas addressed include pre- and post-training nutrition, race-day fuelling strategies, managing energy availability, supporting immune function during heavy training blocks, and navigating body composition goals without compromising health.
