TP Sports Consulting

``Whatever the mind of man can conceive and believe, it can achieve.``

How true this is! However, goals cannot always be achieved without help from a third party. It can happen that athletes hit the ceiling and do not improve any more or their improvement is lesser than that of their peers. Or they have a problem they cannot solve on their own or with their coaches. That is where we come into the equation. With our expertise we will improve athlete's training process, help solve problems and help coaches make the best decisions.

Sports Nutrition

Optimal nutritional strategy is a prerequisite to achieve desired training adaptations that lead into improved performance and to perform best at the competitions. Be it your first 42-km running marathon or olympic games, we have the expertise to help you.

Coaching

Having a coach does not only mean that your trainings are structured, but it enables an athlete to free the mind from thinking about what he is going to do during his next training session. It is also coach’s task to prevent overtraining and make sure that the training plan is designed in a way that gets you to your goal as quickly as possible.

Training Process Optimisation

Training process consists of numerous interrelated factors and only when everything works can the optimal athletic performance be achieved. Very often coaches and athletes utilize methods that “are known” to be successful by other athletes. However, we think replicating others’ work is not always the way to go. We like the phrase of late Steve Jobs “Think Different”. Our experts will help you to evolve and modify your training process to perform best with as little training and resources as possible.

Sports Nutrition and Exercise Physiology for Women

Women are not small men.
It is very common for practitioners working with women athletes to apply the same training and nutrition strategies as for men. As they were completely alike, only smaller. Commonly intentionally forgotten fact is that women’s reproductive system involves a menstrual cycle within which concentrations of various hormones change and cause a myriad of changes in how body functions. Both training and nutrition have to be designed with this in mind or serious problems can occur.

TP Sports Consulting: Who Are We

No athlete can afford not to move forward. It may be at the top of the leaderboard today but at the bottom of it tomorrow, if he doesn’t.

We are a young company specializing in helping athletes, coaches and sports organizations to achieve their goals and ultimate dreams. We can help athletes to improve their performance by improving their training process. We can help coaches revise training methods and yearly plans to be up-to-date with the latest trends and scientific findings. Last but not least, we can help sports organizations to establish a talent identification program and to start working with a long term development in mind. We will cover it all by providing you the best possible experts in the field.

We like to use phrases such as “Think Different” and “Think Out Of The Box” to describe our work, as we seek to find room for improvements where nobody has thought there is even space for them. Training models of the past are the past and we live in the present and think about the future. Every single day we search through plethora of new scientific findings in order to find scientific basis for introduction of certain methods into applied sport.

How We Are Different

01. Science Informed

There is theory, there is applied practice and there is science. Although distinct, they are more interrelated than it is usually thought. We are a team of both scientists and practitioners and believe that only by applying the latest theories and scientific findings into training process can one perform best at the given time. Therefore we have our eyes constantly peeled towards advances in science to be able to provide you with the most up-to-date findings.

02. Innovative

Innovation drives human race forward. Do you remember times without phones? That is the result of innovation. We are confident that innovation plays a crucial role in achieving top athletic performance and overcoming competitors. We therefore spend a lot of time thinking about possibilities to be innovative in the training process. Do something different than what old dogmas suggest. We think that training process needs to evolve on a daily basis. Replicating other’s practices can only make an athlete as good as them but not better.

03. Not constraint by old dogmas

It is very common for coaches and athletes to use methods that were used by their peers. When asked why are they doing that, they reply that this has always been done in that way. We like to question everything and we are only satisfied when we can see proofs that something really works. Only then are willing to recommend a certain practice. This makes sense to us because we think that everything that is done needs to have a good cause. Otherwise it is redundant.

04. We do not know everything

We proudly acknowledge that we do not know everything. And we are confident to say that there is no one out there that knows everything. If there is one, he is wrong. Therefore, to get an answer to a specific question, we will consult with the best experts in the field and provide you with the best possible solution.

We are committed to help people enrich their lives. It is therefore our privilege to be able to help you with your problems and answer your questions. We love to answer difficult or unusual questions as we treat them as new challenges.
