Making a Positive Impact
Passionate Coach/Teacher. I am a person that was born with a disability called Cerebral Palsy. While I was growing up in Los Angeles, people always told me that I couldn't achieve or play sports because of my disability. So I decided at an early age that I wouldn't let anybody or anything come between my success and achievements. I decided to get into sports. The sports that I played and achieved at were Football, Basketball, Baseball, Wrestling, Track and Field. As a coach/teacher, I have seen and experienced youth that have been in the same situation and I have coached and taught them that they can achieve anything with hard work, believing, and confidence.
I graduated from San Jose State. Received a B.S in Kinesiology with the emphasis in Movement Science and Coaching.

NUTRITION
How to get and stay fit and healthy.
Nutrition is the study of how food and drink affects our bodies with a special regard to the essential nutrients necessary to support human health. It looks at the physiological and biochemical processes involved in nourishment and how substances in food provide energy or are converted into body tissues. These nutrients which are the source of energy for our bodies are classed as: carbohydrates, fats, fibre, minerals, proteins, vitamins, and water. Good nutrition means obtaining the right amount of nutrients from healthy foods in the right combinations. An important part of the study of nutrition is looking at the diseases that can result from malnutrition and the role food plays in the development of chronic disease.
IS THERE A CERTAIN AMOUNT OF PROTEIN THAT YOUNG ATHLETES SHOULD BE EATING EACH DAY?
DEPENDING ON THEIR GOALS, TRAINING STATUS AND TYPE OF ACTIVITY, ATHLETES NEED ANYWHERE FROM ½ TO 1 GRAM OF PROTEIN PER POUND OF BODY WEIGHT. A SPORTS DIETITIAN IS THE BEST RESOURCE TO HELP YOU DETERMINE THE RIGHT AMOUNT OF PROTEIN THAT YOUR STAR ATHLETE NEEDS.
AS A GENERAL RULE, YOUNG ATHLETES CAN MEET THEIR DAILY PROTEIN NEEDS BY MAKING SURE TO INCLUDE A SOURCE OF LEAN PROTEIN SUCH AS EGGS, MILK, YOGURT, NUTS, NUT BUTTER, BEANS, LENTILS, TOFU, CHICKEN OR FISH AT EACH MEAL AND SNACK.
Certain Foods for Young Athletes
Whole grains and other complex carbohydrates (oats, brown rice, quinoa, whole wheat bread, whole grain breakfast cereals, sweet potatoes, squash and beans)
Fruits (2 to 4 servings per day)
Vegetables (3 to 5 servings per day)
Lean proteins (chicken, fish, beans/lentils, tofu, eggs, yogurt and milk)
Healthy fats (nuts, nut butter, seeds, olive oil and avocado)
HEALTHY DIET TIPS FOR ATHLETES LOWER RISK OF INJURY AND PERFORMANCE.
“EATING A HEALTHY DIET ENSURES THAT AN ATHLETE IS GETTING ALL THE NUTRIENTS THEIR BODY NEEDS TO PRODUCE ENERGY AND CREATE NEW MUSCLE TISSUE, ENZYMES AND OTHER CELLULAR STRUCTURES INVOLVED IN ENERGY METABOLISM,” EXPLAINS WILLIAMS. “PROPER NUTRITION CAN ALSO HELP REPAIR DAMAGE FROM TRAINING AS WELL AS EVERYDAY WEAR AND TEAR, AND KEEPS THE BODY’S MUSCLES, BONES, JOINTS, TENDONS AND ORGANS FUNCTIONING OPTIMALLY.”
How can eating a healthy diet help athletes lower their risk of injury and perform better?
“Eating a healthy diet ensures that an athlete is getting all the nutrients their body needs to produce energy and create new muscle tissue, enzymes and other cellular structures involved in energy metabolism,” explains Williams. “Proper nutrition can also help repair damage from training as well as everyday wear and tear, and keeps the body’s muscles, bones, joints, tendons and organs functioning optimally.”
PROFESSIONAL APPROACH
Any tips to ensure young athletes are getting enough nutrients?
Young athletes should be eating five or six balanced meals and snacks each day, and should be eating every three hours. Each meal should include a balance of complex carbs, lean protein, healthy fat, fruits and vegetables. Each snack should include a combination of all three macronutrients: complex carbs, lean proteins and healthy fats.
If your athlete has any food allergies or intolerances, work with a registered dietitian to make sure they are appropriately filling any “gaps” in their diet created by eliminating foods or food groups.
PERSONALIZED ATTENTION
Tips for Developing Healthy Eating Habits
Parents can encourage healthy eating behaviors in children by first modeling those desired behaviors. Children mimic the behaviors of the adults in their lives. Therefore, if you want your child to eat healthy, work to set a good example.
Eat family meals together as often as possible. Parents are responsible for the what, when and where of eating, so do your part by planning healthy meals and snacks at set, regular meal and snack times. Encourage eating at the table as a family and not in front of the TV, while distracted or in the car. “As long as parents do their part – the what, when and where of feeding – children are responsible for deciding how much to eat and whether or not to eat at all,” says Williams.
Make eating a pleasant and positive experience. Introduce new or healthy foods to your child in a fun and positive way and never nag children or make negative comments about a child’s eating habits. This only makes things worse. “Offer, but don’t force!” says Williams. “The more you pressure your child to eat a certain food, the less likely your child will be to eat that food. On the other hand, the more you restrict certain foods, it’s more likely your child will want that food.”
