Elite Minds Podcast: Optimizing Performance through Nutrition, Sleep, & Supplementation

A couple months back, I flew out to Texas for a Metabolic Elite board meeting. While we were there, we recorded several podcasts that are now available.

In this episode, Mike Potenza (back in the NHL as Director of High Performance with the San Jose Sharks after spending two seasons as the Director of Performance with the Golden State Warriors), and I sat down to talk about:

  • How Mike and I first connected and how that opened the door for an opportunity to work in professional hockey (important for people that want to work in high level sport)
  • The evolution of performance departments in the NHL
  • Key areas that impact player and team performance and the importance of feedback loops
  • Why nutrition is such a powerful factor in player health and performance
  • The evolution of youth sports and how changes over the last decade impact preparation and recovery needs
  • Our strategy to help developmental players prepare for the transition to professional hockey
  • Why in-season training is critical for short-term performance and long-term progress
  • The importance of “monitoring” in managing the balance of preparation and fatigue, and how strategy changes once game-day arrives
