When it comes to improving your health, body and mind,
exercise is only one part of the jigsaw. If you’re looking to lose some weight,
gain some muscle or just improve your eating habits, then of course, nutrition
plays a huge part.
The Tonbridge School Centre will be hosting a series on
nutrition talks every Wednesday at 6.30pm throughout the month of May. The talks
will last thirty minutes and will cover a range of different topics. The four talks are designed to complement
each other and we would recommend attending all if possible.
GI, GL & The Truth About CHO (Carbohydrates)
What are low GI and high GI CHO? What is Glycaemic Load? Are
there ‘bad’ and ‘good’ sources of CHO? Dan will guide you through and help you
discover the truth about carbohydrates and answer any questions you have
regarding your own personal CHO issues.
The Importance of Protein (Protein)
Protein is a vital
macronutrient for anybody, but especially for people who exercise regularly. Simon
and Oli will discuss what protein is composed of, why we need it and how much you
should be consuming based on your personal goals.
Fat or Fiction (Fats)
Fat has suffered at the hands on the media for the past few
decades and our personal trainers, Patrick and Emma intend to set the story
straight. This highly important macronutrient is essential to bodily function
and Patrick and Emma will discuss everything you need to know to leave yourself
feeling informed and able to consume fat with confidence.
Meal Plans
The last talk will
utilise all of the knowledge previously discussed and provide you with an
overview of tips to help you with planning your meals. Simon and Oli will share
planning tips and give you some healthy meal ideas for breakfast, lunch, dinner
and snacks too.

nutrition then please book yourself a spot in these talks. But please hurry as
