Sports nutrition together with training, recovery, genetics and environmental considerations, represent key factors for achieving high performance on the sports field. In recent years there has been an increased interest in the potential of novel dietary strategies (e.g. periodized nutrition) and dietary supplements, ergogenic aids to improve individual and team sports athletes’ performance. . However, the majority of the research in the sports nutrition field has been conducted in endurance or high-intensity sports, highlighting the need for specific information and collaborative strategies to support nutritional knowledge and targeted dietary/supplementation strategies to inform and support other athletes. The aim of this Research Topic is to provide current findings about the benefits associated with using nutritional interventions and/or dietary supplements/ergogenic aids on supporting or enhancing sports performance with focus on these applications in real-world sports contexts (e.g., competition, training situations, etc). Studies that focus on novel interventions/supplements are encouraged. Likewise, studies that report on outcomes related to previously proven supplements/interventions but in an athlete sub-population where limited published literature exists will be considered favorably.
