Sport <strong>and</strong> Nutrition 30 ECTS<br />
During this exchange course you will learn how to give<br />
individual custom-made advice on sports nutrition. To be able<br />
to do this, you will analyse both the health <strong>and</strong> performance<br />
capacity <strong>of</strong> the person in question. You will also establish the<br />
athlete’s personal goals <strong>and</strong> find out which factors, apart from<br />
nutrition, are <strong>of</strong> influ<strong>en</strong>ce. Topics such as nutrition <strong>and</strong><br />
dietetics, nutritional physiology <strong>and</strong> exercise physiology will be<br />
covered ext<strong>en</strong>sively. Because advice is giv<strong>en</strong> on an individual<br />
basis <strong>and</strong> the athlete in question is aiming to reach personal<br />
goals, you will also develop coaching skills during the course.<br />
Besides informing <strong>and</strong> guiding individuals, you will also learn<br />
how to develop an interv<strong>en</strong>tion plan for a group <strong>of</strong> athletes.<br />
The purpose <strong>of</strong> such a plan is to help athletes change their<br />
behaviour in the area <strong>of</strong> sport, nutrition <strong>and</strong> health. To skillfully<br />
approach <strong>and</strong> solve such behavioural issues, you need to have<br />
a good underst<strong>and</strong>ing <strong>of</strong> behavioural change <strong>and</strong> how to give<br />
advice. You will gain this knowledge during the course. Also,<br />
you will write a sci<strong>en</strong>tific article, reviewing an important <strong>and</strong><br />
discussed sport nutrition topic.<br />
Topics<br />
• Energy <strong>and</strong> metabolism in sports<br />
• Macronutri<strong>en</strong>ts <strong>and</strong> fluids in sports<br />
• Micronutri<strong>en</strong>ts <strong>and</strong> supplem<strong>en</strong>ts in sports<br />
• Nutrition for young athletes <strong>and</strong> tal<strong>en</strong>t developm<strong>en</strong>t<br />
• Nutrition for competitive sport, aesthetic sport <strong>and</strong> extreme<br />
sports<br />
• Nutrition for recreational sport <strong>and</strong> health<br />

skills <strong>and</strong> knowledge within your own pr<strong>of</strong>ession (pr<strong>of</strong>essional<br />
