Sports Nutrition at Elevate Dietetics | Melbourne & Online

Training hard but not getting the performance or recovery you expect?

For many athletes, progress stalls not because of training, but because fuelling isn’t matched to the demands of their sport.

At Elevate Dietetics, we provide evidence-based sports nutrition coaching for active individuals and athletes who want to improve energy, performance, recovery, and body composition - without guesswork.

Who I Work With

I work with a wide range of athletes and active individuals, including:

  • Recreational runners, gym-goers, and weekend athletes

  • Strength and hypertrophy-focused athletes

  • Team sport athletes (football, soccer, basketball)

  • Endurance athletes (running, cycling, triathlon, swimming)

  • Youth athletes (16+) navigating growth, development, and training load

  • Athletes managing RED-S, under-fuelling, or recurrent fatigue

  • Athletes following vegan, vegetarian, or plant-leaning diets


If you’re training 2–10+ hours per week, tailored sports nutrition can significantly improve training consistency and outcomes.

Common Sports Nutrition Challenges I Help With

  • Low energy, fatigue, or inconsistent sessions
    Often driven by chronic under-fuelling or poor carbohydrate timing.

  • Slow or recurrent injuries
    Nutrition plays a key role in bone health, tendon loading, and tissue repair.

  • Poor recovery and ongoing muscle soreness
    Optimising protein distribution, carbohydrate availability, and recovery nutrition can markedly improve recovery between sessions.

  • Difficulty building lean muscle
    Common in endurance athletes and those with high training volumes or low energy availability.

  • Body composition concerns
    Supporting fat loss or muscle gain without compromising performance, hormones, or metabolism.

  • RED-S (Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport)
    Managed using a clinical and supportive, approach.

  • Vegan or vegetarian athlete nutrition
    Meeting energy, protein, iron, calcium, iodine, and B12 requirements with practical, food-first strategies.
