Denise Lewis has turned her attention from the heptathlon to rugby after advising Team GB's sevens sides ahead of the Rio Olympics.
The former Olympic, European and Commonwealth champion has spoken to the nation's rugby stars on everything from dodging fast food at the Games to why it is essential they bring their own pillows.
The Sevens teams, who will be based in Rio's Olympic Village, are sure to find find plenty of distractions, from food from every corner of the world to on-demand massages.
Life in the Village will be a new experience for many in the Team GB contingent, and they have sought the advice of Lewis, who won heptathlon gold at the 2000 Games in Sydney, and former England international Stuart Pearce, who coached Great Britain's football side in 2012, in a bid to acclimatise.
Team GB star Dan Bibby hopes Lewis' influence will be the difference between success and failure, while his teammate Marcus Watson noted her culinary advice.
When Watson was asked what nuggets of information Lewis passed on, he said: "Not to eat all the food. There is a 24-hour McDonalds! Her main advice was about comprise.
"There might be little things there like at how in one of her Games she had a really small closet so took that out and put things on the floor. It's about doing what makes yourself feel comfortable."
Bibby added: "[There were] Also little things like take your own pillow -- one percent-ers -- but they might help you get a good sleep the night before the match."
Away from practical advice, hearing Lewis' recollections of her triumphant experiences at the Games helped Watson maintain his concentration and motivation through the gruelling training sessions.
"It's been inspirational," Watson said. "Mentally it's been the toughest camp I have been involved in. Everyday there are people gunning for your position and world class players.
"It was good having those two in to hear about their experiences and learning from them. We learnt from them and know what to do and what not to do in the village."
