Nutrition
Megan Handley has been a dietitian for eight years. However, it wasn't until last year that she joined the USD athletic department to become our sports nutritionist.
Nutrition Philosophy: She practices and teaches a non-diet philosophy. She states, "Im not an advocate for fad/crash diets, rather I support nutritional strategies with a strong evidence base."
Justine Coliflores (USD Athletic Trainer) earned her BS in Kinesiology with an emphasis in Athletic Training and is currently working on her MA in Kinesiology. Every home game Justine will lead the nutrition lecture 45minutes prior to tip off. Each week will have a different focus and help "Fans for Fitness" participants understand the importance of nutrition.
Nutritionist Tips
Fitness
Stephane Rochet has been the USD strength and conditioning coach for the past 5 years. As a former collegiate athlete he saw the benefits strength and conditioning have on athletic performance, and decided to turn his love for fitness into a career.
Fitness philosophy: You have to combine fitness and health. It is a 2 part plan. No matter how much working out you do, if you are not eating right you won't get the results you want. This holds true for both collegiate athletes and everyday people trying to stay active and healthy.
Rochet goes on to say, weight training is ideal. It helps build muscle and supports the immune system.

Nutrition & Fitness
Megan Hadley, our USD nutritionist states "The most common issue among the athletes that arises is poor hydration. Remember that thirst lags behind need. Otherwise, aim for several small balanced, colorful and varied meals/snacks throughout the day, and always begin with breakfast. This may seem basic, but many of us neglect these principles. Athletes in particular need to be proactive in terms of hydration and frequent meal times"

Chinese Chicken Salad
According to USD's strength and conditioning coach, Stephane Rochet, everday fitness is a 2 part plan...
1) "Nutrition is extremely important. No matter how much you are working out if you are not eating right wont get the results you want."
2) Do some sort of exercise. Rochet is more partial to weight trainging for it helps build muscles and supports the immune system
Ingredients
1/2 pound asparagus, trimmed and cut diagonallnto 1-inch pieces
2 navel oranges (see notes)
About 1 1/2 cups vegetable oil
4 fresh wonton wrappers, cut into 1/4-inch-wide strips (see notes)
6 cups finely shredded cabbage
2 cups cubed cooked chicken
Spicy soy-ginger dressing (recipe follows)
1 large avocado, cubed
4 green onions (including green tops), sliced diagonally
2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds
Preparation
1. In a 2-3-quart pan over high heat, bring about 1 quart water to a boil. Add asparagus and cook until crisp-tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Drain, then plunge asparagus into ice water to stop the cooking. Drain and set aside.
2. Cut off and discard ends from oranges. Following the curve of the fruit, cut off peel and outer membrane. Slice oranges crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick rounds, then cut these rounds into quarters. Set aside.
3. Pour the vegetable oil into a 3 4-quart pan (the oil should be about 1/2 inch deep) and set over medium-high heat. When oil reaches 350°, add wonton strips and fry, stirring, until golden brown on both sides, about 30 seconds total. Lift out with a slotted spoon and transfer to paper towels to drain.
4. In a large serving bowl, toss the cabbage, chicken, and asparagus with the dressing. Top with avocado, orange slices, and wonton strips, then garnish with green onions and sesame seeds.
Spicy soy-ginger dressing
In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, 1 1/2 tablespoons soy sauce, 1 tablespoon Asian red chile sauce (such as Sriracha), and 1 1/2 teaspoons grated fresh ginger. Slowly drizzle in 1/4 cup vegetable oil or grapeseed oil, whisking constantly. Season with salt to taste.
Tips...
Get in the gym 30 minutes a day Take the stairs instead of the elevator Do your own household chores (gardening, hanging lights, laundry, dishes, etc..) Walk or bike to lunch Do crunches/abs during T.V. commercials Park further away in the parking lot Stretch after you workout If crunched for time, split up your workout: 10 minutes in the morning, 10 minutes during your lunch break, and 10 minutes at night. Drink plenty of water Make specific and measurable goals Most Importantly- HAVE FUN and BE ACTIVE! :) Video
