Athletes who eat enough get more from the same training.

Most high school athletes are working well below what their training calls for, and it shows up in what they build.

1,929 vs 3,568

Calories eaten against calories burned — the average day for a 14–15 year old athlete.

Martinho et al., Frontiers in Nutrition, 2023

4.0 vs 6–8 g/kg

Carbohydrate intake against what their training actually calls for.

Less

Lean mass gained from the same training when athletes are in an energy deficit.

Murphy & Koehler, Scand J Med Sci Sports, 2022

Most athletes this age have never been shown what a day of eating should look like.

A daily plan, built for each athlete.

They open the app to a plan, not a blank food diary. APEX shows them what to eat, then checks whether they did.

01

A target that fits them

Set from their bodyweight, their goal and the week ahead.

“Players are more engaged — more focused on sleep, eating right, and pushing their limits than ever before.”
Bob Burns · Head Football Coach, CBA Albany

Common questions.

“My athletes won't track their food.”

One photo, and portions in hand sizes. And they aren't only logging — they open the app to a plan every morning, so it teaches them what to eat as much as it tracks what they ate.

“We don't have any equipment.”

You don't need any. Upload your roster, your practice schedule, and provide a link to your school menu and you're running.

“We already have someone handling nutrition.”

Then APEX carries their standards to every athlete between appointments. It doesn't replace anyone.
