About Catherine Polo

Achieving high levels of fitness and performance is the result of a well rounded plan. People usually do well with the exercise portion, attending their training sessions and working hard. However, when it comes to a crucial block for their recovery and progress, a good number cannot get the right guidance. This important block is their nutrition and this is where Catherine Polo comes in.

Catherine Polo is no stranger to nutrition for health and sports performance. Catherine has been assisting her husband Israel A. Sanchez in preparing his athletes for competition. Israel is one of the leading Strength and Conditioning Coaches in the country and the foremost authority in Olympic Style Weightlifting and Russian Kettlebell Lifting in Manhattan, NY.

KathyCatherine has always had that special instinct that made her transform everyday food items into delightful kitchen creations. Her passion was to provide her friends and guests with unforgettable gastronomic experiences using the most common ingredients.

As a fitness and exercise enthusiast, Catherine was aware of the importance of having well balanced meals to make progress and enhance health. This understanding transferred into her creations, which provided the diner with a memorable meal experience that did not compromise their health.

Aware of the sad and undeserved reputation of healthy meals as chewy, flavor-lacking concoctions, Catherine knew she could help more people by expanding her horizons and showing them that one can have a healthy eating lifestyle without compromising the pleasures of a good meal, or the waistline and arteries.

Catherine enrolled in a Culinary Arts program, where she learned to implement her talents for 1 person or 100 people. Managing a well stocked pantry that had all the necessities and none of the superfluous became second nature to her. She knew this was a crucial skill lacking in many people, and the one that eventually leads to the short life of even the most well intentioned nutritional plans. She also fine tuned her skills to select the freshest and more flavorful food ingredients. She graduated on top of her class.

Catherine’s chance to implement her enhanced skills came to fruition as her husband Israel’s team grew and he needed to ensure his athletes were 100% ready to perform. With his time overwhelmed with the physical preparation of his team, Israel commissioned Catherine to oversee their nutritional and refueling needs. Her background in Culinary Arts made it easy for her to prepare competition and sports performance meals that were not only nutritious and helped Israel’s athletes reach high levels of perform, but were also tasty and worthy of a feast.

After seeing the great success of implementing Catherine’s meals into the routines of his athletes, and her great gift and intuition into putting plans together, Israel encouraged her to pursue her Nutrition Manager Certificate under the guidance of Dr. Jane Pentz and the Lifestyle Management Associates™ team.

Catherine is now a vital part of Next Step Conditioning Systems the company founded by Israel A. Sanchez and his partner James Bowman, another well respected and top Strength & Conditioning Coach. Catherine is in charge of all the nutritional aspects of Next Step clients, from collecting health data and guiding with meal plans, to helping them organize their pantries and shopping lists. She can take care of individuals as well as groups such as high school cafeterias. She is also available to assist them with nutritious gourmet meal cooking lessons.

Catherine also contributes articles and recipes to “The Chalk Box” the bimonthly electronic magazine of Next Step Conditioning Systems. Catherine is available for One-on-One or Online sessions. She is available for personal sessions or Online if you still wish to take advantage of her services and are physically distant.
