About Mr David Gordon

David Gordon is a Performance Nutritionist (SENr) helping athletes improve performance, recovery, and body composition through personalised, evidence-based strategies.

He works with a wide range of athletes, from elite endurance competitors and intercounty GAA players to recreational and “weekend warrior” athletes, delivering tailored nutrition programmes aligned with the specific demands of each sport, individual goals, and lifestyle. His approach combines long-term dietary optimisation with targeted strategies for training, competition, and match or race day fuelling.

Performance Focus
His work focuses on delivering measurable improvements in performance, including better fuelling strategies, faster recovery, improved body composition, and enhanced race or match day output, while also reducing the risk of injury and illness through improved nutritional practices. This approach has been applied across both individual and team environments, from high-performance settings to everyday athletes.

David is currently the Lead Performance Nutritionist for an intercounty GAA team, where he works within a high-performance environment to support players through structured nutrition planning, body composition monitoring, and competition preparation.

With nearly 20 years’ experience as a Chartered Physiotherapist and recognition as a Clinical Specialist in Musculoskeletal Therapy, he brings a unique depth of understanding of the human body to his nutrition practice. While his primary focus is performance nutrition, this clinical background underpins a holistic, results-driven approach.

A lifelong sportsman, David has competed in Gaelic football, rugby, and road cycling. Combined with a Master’s degree in Sports and Exercise Nutrition and SENr accreditation, this allows him to bridge the gap between theory and real-world performance.

One-to-one consultation and performance nutrition planning.

Body composition assessment and monitoring.

Match and race day fuelling strategies.

I got in touch with Dave as I was struggling with my nutrition for my running. I signed up with Dave and he got me on the right track with my running jumping up another level due to the right nutrition. I highly recommend him as he is very thorough.

I started working with Dave in early 2026 to help with my Nutrition toward imroving my cycling performace. I was always concerned that looking at my nitrition properly would take the fun out of my cycling a bit, be a step too far when already taking training and racing seriously as a Cat 1 racer in Ireland for a number of years. I though I had the basics of nutrition well enough covered. But what I found was lessons learned through the process are easy to apply, and are not so much extras but small changes that can make a big difference. Working with Dave is as formal or as informal as you like it to be, with regular check ins and great responsiveness to queries.

Dave explained everything very clearly and I left the meeting excited to put the information into practice, this information and the nutrition plan provided by Dave led to increased performance, times improved and I particularly noticed that recovery was quicker. Following the plan is second nature now.
