About Me
Hi there!
My name is Jourdan Delacruz, and I’m so happy to welcome you to Herathlete®.
I’m a 2x Olympian, Registered Dietitian, and advocate for women in sport. I proudly represented Team USA in Olympic Weightlifting at the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games and the Paris 2024 Olympic Games. Throughout my athletic career, I also became a World Championship bronze medalist and 3x Pan American Champion, while setting 6 American records and 3 Pan American records.
My experiences as an elite athlete have deeply shaped the work I do today. As a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist, I specialize at the intersection of sports nutrition and eating disorders. Through my clinical work and experience within high-performance sport, I am passionate about helping athletes navigate the unique challenges that can exist within athletic environments—including disordered eating, eating disorders, body image concerns, body dysmorphia, and the lasting impact that sport-related experiences and trauma can have on an athlete.
My goal is to help create a healthier and safer relationship between athletes and their sport—one where performance and wellbeing do not have to exist in competition with one another. I believe athletes deserve nutrition support that considers the whole person, not just their performance.
After retiring from Olympic Weightlifting in 2026, I’ve found new ways to enjoy movement through rock climbing and running. Whether you consider yourself an athlete or simply an everyday lover of movement, I’d love to support the passion that defines you.
Vision
Herathlete aspires to be a collective group of professionals working to support female athletes in all capacities. We hope to be a team of researchers, healthcare professionals, coaches, and other related field experts who work collaboratively to bring athletes the community of support they deserve.
Jourdan Delacruz, OLY, RDN
