Coach Anderson Raises the Bar and Refuels Athletes with Lowfat Chocolate Milk!
Advocating the benefits of chocolate milk makes Strength and Conditioning Coach Jake Anderson of Central College in Pella, Iowa, a true ambassador of chocolate milk. Doing his very best to educate all his students on the importance of recovery, Jake and the staff of Central College take them through a 3-day nutritional evaluation, and then meet with each student one-on-one about the importance of nutrition and recovery in sports. And the students are responding well. But why has Jake become an ambassador of lowfat chocolate milk?
Jake didn't know winning a Spotlight On Ad would have him getting his arms painted!
Because, "In my experience, it offers such an advantage over other recovery beverages. For example, it's effective at helping my athletes recover, has many nutrients not typically found in sports drinks and is delicious and affordable." Both his female and male athletes appreciate the convenience, cost and natural nutrition that chocolate milk provides. And, as far as the “convenience factor” he says, “students can get it right from our weight room fridge or our cafeteria after a workout. I’d say we have a pretty sound system of recovery.”
Congratulations Coach Anderson! Read more about how Jake helped with school nutrition at Central College.
