What Our Clients Say
“I’ve been around the team of McDaniel Nutrition in the triathlon community for more than 7 years and a client for more than 3 years. Their team are consistent, reliable, and reassuring nutrition coaches as my wife and I navigate our lives. Whether it’s endurance goals, pressures from life and work, or basic nutrition needs their dietitians have been partners in our journey the entire way.
They are supportive and understanding of the challenges we face. Not only do they coach on nutrition, they take the time to understand what is driving your behaviors. I’ve had many conversations with them about choices I was making and experiences I was having had that nothing to do with nutrition. In short, they facilitate the healthy life changes we are seeking.”

Race Day Fueling Package
You’re logging the mileage or following your training plan to the T, but you’ve got this feeling you’re missing something? Oh yeah, a solid fueling plan! All too often, nutrition takes a backseat. However, one of the most common limiting factors of optimal performance comes down to poorly planned (or lack of) nutrition.
Whether your next race is an all-out sprint or a dig-deep, endurance-fest IRONMAN, make sure your fuel plan is on track and specific to the task at hand!
Our Race Day Fueling Plan Includes:
- Initial Consultation (70 minutes) and Follow-Up Session (45 minutes) with the goal of completing:
- An analysis of your past race day plans with refinement using evidence-based sports RD recommendations developed through current research and practice.
- Recommendations for calories, carbohydrates (total and sources), sodium, and fluid intake before, during, and after your event.
- A customized race day plan that you can use for your goal event. This plan should be tested in training weeks before your event so adjustments can be made if needed.
Race Day Fueling Plan: $400
Next Level Sports Nutrition Personalization Services
Want to take personalized sports nutrition to the next level? If you’re looking for the highest-level of customization, you might consider our:
- Resting metabolic rate test (RMR): Your resting metabolic rate makes up a large portion of your total calorie needs. If you’re aiming to adjust your body composition or make sure you’re eating enough to cover the demands of your sport, knowing this number will give you more confidence in your plan.
- Diet by DNA. Curious how your genes play a role in achieving your optimal body composition, whether or not you’ve got a sensitivity to gluten or if you’re more likely to have lower iron levels? Our DIET by DNA reviews 30 genetic traits related to weight loss abilities, food sensitivities, nutrient metabolism, and physical performance.
Club Fuel: Nutrition Services Tailored to Athletes and Parents of Adolescent Sports
Youth and adolescent athletes have the opportunity to be armed with sound, practical, evidence-based sports nutrition guidance. Unfortunately, there’s a LOT of misinformation in the sports nutrition world. Misinformation that can cause fear, injuries or an unhealthy relationship with food.
Parents of youth athletes have the unique opportunity to help their children make the connections between optimal nutrition and performance at a young age.
Our CLUB FUEL Nutrition Services include content development, educational workshops offered in-person or virtually, small group seminars tailored to athletes with shared goals, and one-on-one consultations. Contact us so we can get educated on your club’s athletes’ unique desires and needs.
