Many athletes do not achieve sound nutritional practices to optimize their sports performance. Factors include poor nutrition knowledge, dietary extremism, poor practical skills in choosing or preparing meals, and reduced access to food due to a busy lifestyle and frequent travel. Education in nutrition for the athlete needs to be practical, so as to address eating strategies and key food and fluid choices that will help to achieve the goals of sound nutrition. Strategies that can achieve a number of nutritional goals simultaneously are most useful, since athletes often find it difficult to integrate separate issues. Athletes with extreme nutrient requirements, or with nutritional problems, should seek individual assessment and counselling from a sports nutrition expert.
许多运动员未能养成合理的营养习惯以优化运动表现。因素包括营养知识匮乏、饮食极端主义、选择或准备膳食的实践技能欠佳，以及由于忙碌的生活方式和频繁旅行导致获取食物的机会减少。针对运动员的营养教育需要具有实用性，以便解决有助于实现合理营养目标的饮食策略以及关键食物和液体选择问题。能够同时实现多个营养目标的策略最为有用，因为运动员常常发现难以兼顾不同的问题。有极端营养需求或存在营养问题的运动员，应寻求运动营养专家的个人评估和咨询。
