I'd be curious to see a competent/respected nutritionist be given access to some of these athletes to show what they actually do right (and perhaps wrong). Not just one or two athletes, but maybe a generalized access over a period of time to 25 or so athletes in a given sport. And see what the nutritionist derives from first hand knowledge. Comparing the self promoters to the quietly impressive, to the ones that seem lacking in their approach. I think it would make for interesting reading (maybe it's already out there and I'm not aware). Obviously what a lineman needs for nutritional intake is going to differ from a WR, etc. What they consider what someone REALLY taking care of their body looks like.
I guess I'd be interested in the same for each of the varied disciplines of body treatment. Personal trainers, sleep experts, mental training as well for those that do it. I could be an interesting series. I've been intrigued at the sport science direction that Chip Kelly is advocating for and was disappointed that he didn't get to continue it at the pro level. Unfortunately there are competitive advantage issues preventing some of the access, but it would be cool to see behind the scenes with this stuff.
This training discussion has really gone off course from the Fulz thread, so I'll stop here I guess.
