Students will: understand the energy systems that vary depending on the type of physical activity, exercise, and sport; learn timing strategies for macronutrients and micronutrients; develop evidence-based nutrition plans for various sports disciplines, travel, high-altitude conditions, and vegan/vegetarian athletes; and gain a dietary perspective on the safe use of supplements and ergogenic aids.
The course covers: concepts of physical activity and sports; energy requirements and macronutrient/micronutrient distribution in athletes; timing of nutrient intake; hydration and sports drinks; immune functions; nutrition for strength, endurance, and team sports; nutritional strategies for special circumstances (travel, Ramadan, altitude); vegan/vegetarian athletes; supplements, ergogenic aids, and the ethical dimensions of doping in sports.

| 1. | By explaining the differences between the concepts of physical activity, exercise, and sports, they distinguish the primary energy systems and metabolic pathways used in various sports. |
| 2. | It calculates athletes' personalized macro- and micronutrient and hydration requirements for the training period, as well as before, during, and after competitions (recovery), and implements timing strategies. |
| 3. | By analyzing the physiological requirements of strength, endurance, and team sports, it evaluates the effects of specific conditions—such as travel, high altitude, and vegan/vegetarian diets—on performance and athlete health |
| 4. | It evaluates ergogenic aids and supplements available on the market in terms of their effectiveness, safety, and doping/ethical implications, based on evidence-based scientific literature (IOC, ISSN, AIS, etc.). |
| 5. | For amateur or professional athletes active in various sports, they design an evidence-based nutrition plan or menu tailored to their training and competition schedules as well as their personal characteristics, with the aim of enhancing performance and promoting health. |
