Fuelling All-Ireland Champions | John O’Connor, Target Nutrition
Description
How do All-Ireland winning GAA players actually fuel themselves — not just with protein and carbs, but with the habits, systems and support that make eating well possible?
In this episode of Coach’s Lab, I chat with John O’Connor (Target Nutritionist & Kerry Senior Football nutritionist) about how he helps players eat better in real-world environments.
We discuss:
Why behaviour change is more important than nutrition facts
Building structures & routines that stick
The role of caterers, coaches, physios & parents in fuelling players
Practical, low-budget ideas for clubs to improve post-training nutrition
Helping young players and families build long-term eating habits
This isn’t about grams of protein or fancy supplements — it’s about realistic strategies coaches, parents, and players can use to make nutrition work.
