Ep.01 - Origin Stories

In the inaugural episode, Bob Seebohar and Dina Griffin share some of their origin stories for what got them interested in sports nutrition and how this led to launching their careers as Registered Sport Dietitians. Hints: Bob puked a cookie in an Ironman and Dina got a respectable Gut Bomb during a marathon.

We cover:

· Bob’s upbringing in team sports and how he signed up for his 1st triathlon without knowing what it was

· Bob’s frustration with bonking and gastrointestinal distress that propelled his niche in sports nutrition, and the creation of the Nutrition Periodization and Metabolic Efficiency Training concepts

· Dina’s story of changing careers from software consulting to becoming an “adult-onset athlete” and eventually getting into the field of nutrition

· Dina’s gut bomb experience as a result of following the classic sports nutrition recommendations during her attempt at qualifying for the Boston Marathon and how this led to connecting with Bob
