TACH2F

Tactical Athlete Holistic Health and Fitness Seminar (TACH2F) - NUTRITION


TACH2F header

Maximizing the health, wellness, and performance of tactical athletes is complex and requires a multiple faceted approach. The TACH2F Seminars invite clinicians, researchers, S&C coaches, trainers, and tactical athletes into the same room to learn and share ideas together. The TACH2F Seminars are active events. Attendees should plan to share ideas, think through problems, and express the needs they see within their organization, practice, or research. No one has all the answers; come ready to learn together. The lectures are aimed at providing the practitioners and the tactical athletes with applied knowledge that they can use personally and within their organizations. We want to eliminate the time gap that often occurs between research and practice. We are excited for the continuing conversations that are generated during each seminar, and we hope that you will join us and share your ideas too. The NUTRITION seminar will include high-application lectures focused on tactical environments and work demands, a dive into technologies that help us understand metabolism, ideas for succeeding with meal preparation and snacking, and many opportunities to talk with the presenters and other attendees.
