On Friday June 5th I was honored to be asked to speak about sports nutrition at Karate Canada’s Junior National Training Camp. As per usual, whenever a group is kind enough to ask me to present to them, I dive into the scientific literature that exists on that topic. So here is a blog especially for all the coaches who signed up for my newsletter at that camp – as well as for anyone else who is interested in the physical science of the sport of karate.
