Training effects don’t just result from exercise — they depend on how well you fuel your body. Appropriate energy availability, macronutrient balance, and nutrient timing are essential to maximise training quality, recovery, and long-term performance.
Our approach provides personalised nutrition strategies designed around your goals, sport, and training load. Using nutritional periodisation, we align carbohydrate, protein, and overall energy intake with the demands of your sessions and competition phases — ensuring optimal fuelling for strength training and high-intensity efforts, sustained energy for endurance, and the nutrients required for effective recovery and adaptation.
Beyond performance, we address the key areas that often hold athletes back: accelerating recovery, reducing the risk of illness and injury, and using supplementation safely and effectively. The consequence is a clear, science-based plan that gives you confidence in your daily fuelling, supports consistent training, and prepares you to perform at your best when it matters most.
This is where your journey begins — a personal consultation designed to bring clarity, structure, and a plan built entirely around you. Together, we’ll look at your training, nutrition and lifestyle, identify the key areas for progress, and create a roadmap that will fit your goals and your lifestyle.

Xavi is helping me with a nutritional plan to complement my PT programme and I’m fitter, leaner and stronger than I have been in 15 years. I love the informal setting of the well equipped studio space, Xavi is friendly and welcoming and manages to get the best out of you without being overly pushy. The sessions are always different and we have a laugh too. I couldn’t recommend EMS more

I have been working with Xavier for 18 months after I had my baby. He helped me to regain core strength and changed my outlook to fitness, and introduced a mix of strength training and cardio. He is very encouraging and personalised the program to my needs on a weekly basis. Highly recommended!

Started with Xavi in August 2023, being moderately overweight and unhealthy. Xavi soon got me to work, giving me a workout plan, diet plan and a heap of motivation to get into shape.
Within 6 months, I had lost over 15kg, starting to slowly get into a better shape and feel better about myself.
Would definitely recommend Xavi!

The Core Idea “Fuel for the work required” is a simple concept, but it sits at the foundation of effective sport and exercise nutrition. At its core, it means aligning your nutrition with the physiological demands you place on your body. Rather than eating the same way every day or following a rigid plan, this […]
Unlike cars, we don’t have a warning light that flashes when we’re running low on fuel. But make no mistake—your body will let you know. The problem is, most athletes either ignore the signs or don’t recognise them in the first place. Over time, under-fuelling doesn’t just affect performance. It impacts your health, recovery, and […]
Walk into any supplement shop or scroll online and you’ll be hit with bold claims, flashy labels, and promises of rapid transformation. But here’s the reality: Only a small number of supplements are consistently backed by strong scientific evidence. And even more importantly… Most of what supplements provide can (and should) come from a well-structured […]
