Training usually starts at an early age as years of skill and strength development are required. Diving requires the athlete to be small, lean and well-muscled. This body composition provides physical advantages including better mechanical efficiency and increased power-to-weight ratio for performing acrobatic moves.
Day to day nutrition will play an important role in the success of diving athletes. Nutrition is often based around appropriately timed carbohydrate for fuel and lean proteins for muscle recovery, growth and repair.
In addition, fruit, vegetables, nuts, seeds and wholegrains provide important vitamins and minerals, along with some healthy fats. Some divers may with concerns about stomach issues may miss breakfast before early morning training sessions. However, to maximise performance, having a carbohydrate rich liquid such as flavoured milk or smoothies can be ideal for fuel and stomach comfort as liquids empty more quickly from the stomach than solid foods.

As nutrition has a key role in managing body composition and performance, any athlete wishing to change their body composition should consult with an Accredited Sports Dietitian for best outcomes.
