Meet the Athlete provides students with real life science application and experiences in elite sport settings. Over 75 students across two days, had the pleasure of gaining a first hand insight and working with Madi on athlete training, hydration, nutrition, recovery and rehabilitation. Madi was able to bring a wonderful dynamic to the program with her teaching background and her personal experience using science as an elite athlete.
The program gives a hands on insight and inquiry in the following areas:
Nutritional requirements
Hydration analysis
Glucose testing
Electrolyte balance
Exercise, recovery and rehabilitation methods
We are very excited that Madi will be available throughout 2016 for continued involvement in Meet the Athlete. Bookings open in Term 4, 2015 and can be made by contacting admin@biolab.vic.edu.au
