Food and nutrition coursework.

Analysis

When this coursework was first mentioned to me I immediately thought of doing this coursework relative to sport. I have very many interests in sport in and outside school and therefore I think I would be very suited to be doing such a piece of work..

The area that I am going to investigate will be a athlete's diet. Sports that I'm interested in are rowing, rugby and weight lifting so I will try to keep this project within these three sports.

There are a number of important factors to ensure a proper investigation. These are:

. Define a sportsmen.

2. Create a task title in order to focus on a specific area.

3. Find out if there are any special nutritional requirements by doing research.

4. Finding the nutritional contents of the dishes I produce.

5. Doing taste tests to gain a prospective on what people think of the dishes.

6. Decide what to cook

7. Produce graphs to show what people think of the dishes.

Information needed

A sports person is a person that takes part in sport. It can be on a variety of levels from professional to a friendly game of football in the park. I will try to steer my project towards the more professional side of things.

A suitable title for an investigation would be something along the lines of "What does a professional sportsmen eat and why?"

To find out information on this I will have to write to a professional. The person I decided to write it on the next page. I sent the letter to Sir Steve Redgrave who lives only a few miles away from me.

Best Regards
