Board-certified sports dietitian with professional UFC and USAF Pararescue experience — now serving Miami's elite athletes with remote nutrition consulting powered by AI.
Miami is a year-round training hub. Between the heat, humidity, and relentless competition calendar, athletes here face unique fueling challenges that most generic meal plans ignore. Whether you're grinding through two-a-days at a South Florida gym or preparing for competition season, your nutrition needs to account for sweat losses, heat adaptation, and the metabolic demands of training in a subtropical climate. That's where a board-certified sports dietitian with real-world experience makes the difference.
Miami is home to one of the densest concentrations of combat sport talent in the country. Gyms like American Top Team, Killcliff FC, and MMA Masters have produced UFC champions and world-class grapplers. The region also supports professional baseball, soccer, and a massive recreational fitness scene.
Nelson Marques, RD, CSSD, brings professional UFC fighter nutrition experience and USAF Pararescue tactical nutrition expertise to Miami's athlete community. That means you're working with someone who understands the stakes — not a generalist reading from a textbook.
