My name is Rhoys Wiggins, I am a retired professional footballer, having played for several clubs across the English football leagues.

After sustaining a career ending injury I turned to a huge passion of mine, nutrition.

Since retiring from Professional football, I used my time to study on various courses gaining multiple diplomas and a masters degree at Oxford Brookes university which in turn has allowed me to register on the SENr register for professional nutritionists endorsed by The association of UK dieticians (BDA) .

My years in football have also allowed me to experience day to day life as a professional athlete, thus giving me the experience to have a deeper understanding of the routine and importance of nutrition that no qualification can offer.
