Ice Hockey Nutritionist
Your peak ice hockey performance is only possible with optimal sports nutrition — guided by an expert ice hockey nutritionist in Sydney. This is where science meets strategy to fuel your body for elite results on the ice.
Are you — or your teenager — an ice hockey athlete constantly running out of energy before the final shift? Struggling with heavy legs, poor recovery, or fading focus during games or training? Despite putting in the hours on the ice and in the gym, you’re still missing your peak — and it’s frustrating. You’re not undertrained — you’re underfuelled. No matter how hard you push, poor nutrition will always hold you back.
I’m Jake Biggs, an ice hockey nutritionist based in Sydney, and I help junior, elite, and aspiring hockey athletes fuel smarter, recover faster, and perform at their absolute best — every session, every game. Whether it’s pre-season conditioning, mid-season intensity, or finals pressure, I create personalised sports nutrition and recovery strategies tailored to your position, play style, and individual physiology. In ice hockey, your body is your engine — and when it’s fuelled right, there are no limits.
I also work with professional and elite athletes, sharing the exact evidence-based sports nutrition strategies I use to help them reach peak performance and maintain consistency across training blocks and competition phases.
Finally, It’s Your Last Ever Ice Hockey Sports Nutrition Plan
Ice Hockey Nutritionist: Ice Hockey Sports Nutrition Initial Consultation
This isn’t your standard sports nutrition consultation with a sports nutritionist or sports dietitian. This is a detailed, evidence-based sports nutrition consultation designed specifically for ice hockey players who are serious about unlocking peak performance through meticulously tailored, position-specific, ice hockey nutrition strategies.
First 45 Minutes – Ice Hockey Performance Deep Dive & Dietary Analysis: I’ll take a deep dive into your ice hockey performance, starting with a full clinical analysis of your nutrition — your macro- and micronutrient intake — and how it’s fuelling your body across training blocks, on-ice sessions, and recovery phases. We’ll assess your positional workload, recovery patterns, injury history, and seasonal demands to pinpoint exactly where energy leaks, fatigue, or under-recovery are holding you back.
Together, we’ll identify the barriers stopping you from reaching your peak — whether it’s inconsistent explosiveness during shifts, sluggish recovery between games, reduced stamina in the third period, or underfuelled muscles struggling through high-intensity transitions. We’ll set clear, actionable short- and long-term goals so you can train harder, recover faster, and perform with consistency. You’ll walk away with complete clarity on why your ice hockey performance hasn’t been where it should be — and a step-by-step plan to take it to the next level.
Final 15 Minutes – Your Personalised Elite Performance Ice Hockey Sports Nutrition Plan: This is the core of the consultation. I’ll provide your precise, evidence-based formula — a fully personalised blueprint that combines optimal nutrition, targeted recovery strategies, and lifestyle optimisation designed specifically for ice hockey athletes. You’ll leave with a step-by-step, actionable plan showing exactly what to eat, when to eat it, and how to support your body to maximise energy, power, speed, endurance, and recovery.
Whether you’re building lean mass, chasing agility, or managing focus and resilience under pressure — this is more than guidance. It’s your exact roadmap to achieving peak ice hockey performance and sustaining it across your training, competition, and recovery phases.

As your ice hockey nutritionist, I don’t just provide meal plans — I create fully personalised sports nutrition strategies designed to optimise every aspect of your performance on the ice.
I focus on restoring energy rapidly between sessions, enhancing explosive power, endurance, and repeat sprint ability to maintain peak output across high-intensity shifts, games, and training blocks. Recovery is central — every protocol supports muscle repair, joint resilience, and connective tissue strength to keep you durable, agile, and injury-resistant.
My approach also sharpens mental focus, reaction time, and decision-making under pressure — so you stay composed and responsive through every shift, transition, and third-period push. Every plan is tailored to your position, training load, and season schedule, giving you the fuel, nutrients, and recovery strategies required to consistently perform at your best while minimising fatigue, overuse injuries, and setbacks.
Ice Hockey Nutritionist: How I Turn Your Talent Into Peak Performance With Personalised Sports Nutrition
| Poor Ice Hockey Nutrition | Optimal Ice Hockey Nutrition With Myself |
|---|---|
| Energy crashes mid-session, especially during high-intensity shifts or long games | I design fuelling strategies that match energy delivery to the intensity, duration, and timing of each session, ensuring consistent power output across practices, games, and conditioning blocks. |
| Persistent muscle soreness and slow recovery between sessions | I implement nutrient timing, anti-inflammatory foods, and recovery-supportive supplements tailored to your schedule, combined with sleep optimisation techniques to accelerate muscle repair and keep you training consistently. |
| Difficulty building lean muscle, explosive strength, or anaerobic capacity | I develop precise nutrition plans that support hypertrophy, explosive power, and sprint endurance, ensuring your body has the right substrates to grow stronger, faster, and more resilient on the ice. |
| Inconsistent game-day performance and poor execution under pressure | I create game-day nutrition protocols personalised to your position, play style, and environmental conditions, giving you the fuel and hydration needed for sharp execution and sustained performance. |
| Increased risk of joint pain, tendon strain, or contact-related injuries | I integrate collagen-supportive foods, omega-3s, and micronutrient-rich strategies to strengthen connective tissue, improve joint resilience, and reduce injury risk from repeated impact and strain. |
| Fatigue during back-to-back games or multi-day tournaments | I design intra-session fuelling and recovery layering strategies that maintain stamina, replenish glycogen efficiently, and minimise fatigue during consecutive high-intensity efforts. |
| Poor mental focus, slow reaction times, and reduced ice awareness | I optimise cognitive performance through stable blood sugar, hydration, and brain-supportive nutrients, helping you maintain sharp focus, fast reaction times, and tactical awareness during plays and transitions. |
| Inconsistent hydration leading to cramps, headaches, or poor muscle function | I create individualised hydration plans, including electrolytes and fluid timing strategies, to maintain neuromuscular control, prevent cramping, and optimise muscle function throughout practices and games. |
| Poor sleep quality and delayed recovery from high-volume training | I incorporate nutrition strategies that support melatonin production, cortisol regulation, and deep sleep cycles, ensuring your body recovers fully and adapts efficiently to heavy workloads. |
| Low immunity and frequent illness during peak training phases | I include immune-supportive foods, vitamins, and antioxidants, combined with gut health optimisation, to reduce illness risk and keep you training and competing at full capacity. |
| Mental burnout and loss of motivation during intense blocks | I incorporate mood- and motivation-supportive nutrients such as omega-3s and B vitamins, alongside strategic recovery nutrition, to maintain mental resilience and engagement during high-volume training blocks. |
| Slow adaptation to increased training loads or new programs | I use nutrient periodisation and recovery layering to support faster physiological adaptation, ensuring your body responds optimally to increases in training volume and intensity. |
| Erratic appetite, cravings, and poor eating patterns | I provide structured, personalised fuelling plans that stabilise hunger, enhance satiety, and reduce cravings, helping you stay consistent and optimally fuelled. |
| Low muscle mass and suboptimal body composition for ice performance | I optimise body composition through targeted protein intake, nutrient timing, and metabolic support, enhancing your power-to-weight ratio and on-ice explosiveness. |
| Micronutrient deficiencies affecting recovery, immunity, and performance | I assess and tailor comprehensive micronutrient strategies to your training load, sweat losses, and recovery needs, ensuring optimal performance and resilience. |
| Reduced technical precision and slower neuromuscular response | I improve reaction speed and technical execution through stable blood glucose, neural-supportive nutrients, and strategic fuelling before high-intensity efforts. |
| Inconsistent performance across training cycles and competition phases | I use periodised nutrition and recovery planning to maintain consistent high-level performance across training blocks and competitive phases. |
| Overtraining symptoms and fatigue-related technical breakdowns | I balance training demands with strategic nutrition and recovery protocols to prevent burnout, preserve technical skill, and maintain high-quality training sessions. |
| Lack of clarity around what, when, and how to fuel for ice hockey | I provide a detailed, step-by-step ice hockey-specific fuelling blueprint tailored to your training, competition schedule, goals, and physiology, giving you complete clarity and confidence. |
As your dedicated ice hockey nutritionist, my role goes far beyond handing you a meal plan. I deliver precision-engineered sports nutrition strategies tailored to the unique physiological demands of ice hockey — designed to elevate every shift, every collision, and every period.
My approach targets the critical performance pillars: rapid energy replenishment between sessions, sustained power and endurance across high-intensity efforts, and strategic recovery that protects and rebuilds muscle tissue, joints, and connective structures under repeated load. Whether you’re in a heavy training block, mid-season grind, or preparing for finals, your nutrition becomes a tool for resilience, consistency, and peak output — tailored to your position, goals, and game-day demands.
