Nutrition Coaching Zurich for Athletes and Executives
Your body follows measurements, not resolutions.
If you need your body to perform at the highest level, you cannot afford nutrition coaching optimised for the average. Executives with long working days need different protocols than someone with a regular routine. Competitive athletes need different protocols than people who go to the gym three times a week.
I am a certified nutritionist in Zurich. I work with data. Not with estimates, not with generic calorie targets and not with recipe booklets.
Nutrition coaching for athletes and executives
Diagnostics
The foundation: why data beats guesswork
Before I talk about food, I look at your numbers. Through spiroergometry we determine how your body produces energy, when it burns fat, when it switches to carbohydrates and where your personal threshold lies.
VO2 max - heart
Maximum oxygen uptake. No value says more about longevity and mental performance.
Spiroergometry - lungs
Shows your personal crossover point: when your body burns fat and when it needs carbohydrates.
Blood analysis - 40+ biomarkers
Hormones, inflammation markers, micronutrients. What slows your body down, before you feel it yourself.
Metabolic flexibility
How quickly your body switches between energy sources. Determines energy, recovery and mental stamina.
Who it's for
Who this nutrition coaching is for
Three starting points, one data-driven approach.
Executives and entrepreneurs
If you work under high pressure every day, you need nutrition strategies for business lunches, travel and long working days. Without any loss of performance. I develop protocols that work in the reality of your calendar.
Competitive athletes and active people
If you train, you need precise nutrition. Timing, macros, recovery. Not estimates, but a system based on lab measurements. Your crossover point determines when your body burns fat and when it switches to carbohydrates.
People with body transformation goals
If you want to optimise fat loss and muscle gain at the same time, you need more than a diet. You need an understanding of how your body produces energy. Spiroergometry delivers the data. I deliver the system.
Process
What nutrition coaching with me includes
Step 1
Initial consultation and history
Where do you stand? What have you tried? What worked, what didn't? This step clarifies what really needs to change.
Step 2
Lab diagnostics and spiroergometry
Body composition, energy metabolism, crossover point. The numbers that really count, not estimates.
Step 3
The personalised nutrition protocol
No standard plan. A system tailored to your numbers, your daily life and your goals.
Step 4
Ongoing adjustment
Your body changes. So does the protocol. Regular check-ins make sure the system keeps working.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
The cost depends on scope and programme duration. In the free initial consultation, we discuss which approach makes sense for your goals. All programmes are on the programmes page.
The first measurable changes are often noticeable after two to four weeks. Lasting body transformations take longer. And last longer. Documented case histories show the results.
That depends on the chosen programme. A complete overview of all services can be found on the programmes page.
My nutrition protocols are built for time zones, airports and business dinners. There is a travel stack: what to eat before the flight, at the hotel and at the client dinner, without any loss of performance and without social exclusion.
No. Restaurant visits and a glass of wine are part of life. The protocol plans for them. I define rules, not bans.
HRV and sleep quality, measured via Whoop and Oura Ring, show how well your body processes food and recovers. I adjust the protocol continuously, not just at the first measurement. How the data feeds into the system is shown in the method.
Many clients feel more stable energy within the first two weeks, once meals match their energy metabolism. The afternoon slump is usually the first thing to go.
