Abstract

Background: possessing sound knowledge of sports nutrition will influence optimal daily nutritional intake thus producing ideal athletic performance, especially during competitions. Educational videos are effective tools to increase knowledge about sports nutrition. However, limited resources are available that fit exclusively to our Malaysian athletes, particularly in silat. Methods: a sports educational video was developed which focused on the required dietary intake for competition day, Emphasizing the importance of practicing nutrient timing at every game window. The first draft of the video was evaluated in terms of suitability, understandability, and actionability. The suitability assessment of materials (SAM) was completed by experts to identify the suitability of the video contents for silat athletes as the target population. Meanwhile, silat athletes were recruited to evaluate the understandability and actionability of the video. They were required to determine if they could understand and act on the information from the video. Results: the video with a duration of 6 minutes and 56 seconds was produced to match the unique demands of silat olahraga competitions, offering dietary recommendations specifically for silat athletes. The final total score for suitability evaluation was 86 percent which indicates that the educational video is considered superior material for the suitability assessment of educational content. Meanwhile, the understandability evaluation yielded a score of 367 points out of a possible 372 points, resulting in a percentage of 99 percent. For actionability, the score was 92 out of 93 points, yielding a percentage of 99 percent. Conclusion: the evaluation findings from experts and targeted respondents among silat athletes concluded that the Newly developed nutritional education video is suitable for use and has an acceptable level of understandability and actionability.
