Dr. Lee, the Healthy Professor

Dr. Coyne’s Nutrition advice, coaching, seminars and writing have a foundation of “evidence based science”.

His books reflect this evidence and that has resulted in a WOE (way of eating) program that is 40% Carbohydrate, 30% Protein and 30% Fat. This is a lower (not low) carbohydrate and higher (not high) protein way of eating. The American Heart Association considers the 30% fat diet “low fat”.

Although based on science, Dr. Coyne has a reputation of “translating science into an easily understood process” - quote from Jamie Clarke – Everest Summiteer. Dr. Coyne is a big believer in “knowledge power” and his presentations reflect that belief. So you not only learn some “how to” techniques for better nutrition but you learn why.

Eating Right for an Active Lifestyle

Physical activity can be good stress or bad stress depending on how you do it, how often you do it and how you feed your body before, during and after. To get the most from an active lifestyle you want to fuel your system with the right nutrients at the right time. Dr. Coyne’s experience with high performance athletes, recreational endurance athletes (Ironman finishers and Ultra-marathoners) and weekend warriors has allowed him to develop strategies for most active people. The underlying principle is still optimal health first.

Healthy Eating for Busy People

When schedules are busy and life is hectic it is not always easy to make healthy eating a priority. However, when our bodies are fuelled with good nutrition it can be easier to cope with stress and have energy to be active throughout the day.

Step one is to be sure you know what healthy foods really mean. i.e. yoghurt is good – flavoured, non-fat, yoghurt is not. There are many misleading marketing pictures that try to convey “healthy” when the reality is they are not.

Some strategies and tips for healthy eating during a busy workday would include:

  • The Importance of breakfast
  • a breakfast shopping list
  • lunch plans - make it and bag it or buy it?
  • Vending machine pitfalls
  • Eating out – what to order
  • Smart snacks.

Nutrition for Optimal Performance

Eating for exercise and sports performance can seem unnecessarily complicated. In order to simplify the role of nutrition in sports performance, it's often easier to break it down into the phases eating for daily health, and eating before during and after exercise performances. We also discuss the different strategies for training days, competing days and rest days. Get the basics on sports nutrition. What to eat, When to eat, the science of hydration, the science of muscle recovery, fueling during endurance performances, maintaining optimal health. The role of “responsible supplementation” is also discussed. Dr. Coyne has a reputation of making the complicated seem simple.
