  • Episode 011 - Adam Ross: Practical Performance Nutrition Guidelines for Everyone

    Episode 011 - Adam Ross: Practical Performance Nutrition Guidelines for Everyone
    Jun 20 2026
    In Episode 011 of the Speed of Life Podcast, we talk performance nutrition with Adam Ross. Rather than engaging in an over-complex analysis of diet and nutrition strategies, we keep things very basic and fundamental. Adam discuses some of the common problems he faces with clients on a daily basis, whether it is eliminating processed foods from their diet, identifying key targets for macro-nutrients and determining sounds sources of supplementation. While it is common for clients to search for the magic-bullet of nutrition that can solve all of their problems, we find out through Adam that often the simple answer is able to provide the best outcomes for most people. Adam Ross, RD, is a Registered Dietitian, Sports Nutritionist, and Performance Strategist based in New York. Searching for ways to improve his athletic performance, Adam began researching nutrition and saw the benefits and pitfalls of trying to change his diet without scientific knowledge or expert support. After playing Division I hockey at Merrimack College and then playing for professional teams affiliated with the Pittsburgh Penguins and Montreal Canadiens, Ross followed his interest in nutrition and returned to school to complete a bachelor’s degree in nutrition and dietetics from Queens College in New York. Ross worked for several years as a performance nutrition coach at Drive495 training gym in Manhattan before moving to St. John’s University as the campus dietitian, advising their Division I sports teams, other students, and faculty members on nutrition. While there, Ross also supported students navigating everything from eating disorders to the basic challenges of adjusting to college life. Ross also developed his own private nutrition coaching practice, and in 2018 he began treating patients online. This allowed him to work with a broad spectrum of people, from professional athletes to people looking to try new diets as they got older to improve their energy and longevity.
