Sports RD Dave Ellis is one of the most compelling, if largely inconspicuous, stories in athletics. No Sports RD in the world has worked with a more prestigious roster of athletes and championship teams, from gold medal-winning Olympians to Super Bowl champions; from Cy Young Award winners on the baseball diamond to playoff teams in the National Hockey League; from college football’s nationally ranked contenders to youth league and teenage athletes still learning the fundamentals of their sport, and of sports nutrition.

From his earliest days in the 1980s teaching alongside legendary coach Tom Osborne and the three-time national football champion Nebraska Cornhuskers, to the 2011 Super Bowl Champion Packers, Dave gravitates to "winning" like someone who has "success” baked into his DNA. In the past year alone, he could have been found in the pits of the Daytona 500, cort side in the NBA, rink side in the NHL, patrolling the sidelines of NFL and college football's top teams, presenting his views to colleagues at an annual conference, speaking on Capital Hill or being quoted in the New York Times, Wall Street Journal or Consumer Reports.

Dave is a Registered Dietitian (RD) and Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (CSCS) who counsels athletic programs on nutrition and teaches athletes how to eat the right foods on a sensible schedule to fuel performance, prevent cramps, finish strong and recover rapidly. He’s also revered by many of the top athletic programs in the country, notably in college football, for his specialization in training table design, body composition and frame assessment. With every passing NFL draft that takes place in the spring, a group of young men enter into the professional ranks having been mentored by Dave, or by one of the health professionals Dave recruited and trained with his “Food First” Fueling Tactics® system.  

After spending 20 years in the collegiate ranks with the Huskers and Wisconsin Badgers, Dave entered private practice in 2001 and has flourished ever since. He’s constantly traveling, coaching and teaching, usually between the coasts but occasionally throughout the world, often orchestrating every aspect of smart and sensible nutrition for schools, teams, individual athletes or national governing bodies of sport. He brings his best to bring out the best in those he works with including his peers who appointed him first President of the Collegiate & Professional Sports Dietitians Association.. www.sportsrd.org

Since starting a full time private practice in 2001 (Sports Alliance Inc), Dave has worked with the biggest names in sports....
