This week I am joined by Former England Rugby player Olly Barkley. Olly had a very unique journey where he went straight into playing for England which then led him to play for Bath with a very long and successful career which lasted 15 years!
I was really looking forward to speaking to Olly about his diet when playing professional rugby compared to his diet now, as well as his thoughts on the plant-based movement and whether he believed that you could play a high impact sport professionally whilst on a predominantly plant-based diet.
This conversation was so interesting, Olly's knowledge and passion on the topics were so inspiring as we discussed the following topics:
- Olly's career journey and how he got there
- Calorie intake whilst in training for a professional sport
- Nutritional guidance
- The power of food for recovery, maintenance and growth
- Learning about how your personal body works and develops
- Supplements
- Plant-Based and Flexitarian
