Feel confident, qualified and ready to coach nutrition
After finishing such a comprehensive course, I felt much more confident in the areas of nutrition for weight loss, weight management and sports nutrition, and still refer back to the material. Outside of a nutrition degree, this is one of the best courses in the field."

Both research and experience has shown that exercise, while important, isn't enough on its own to get people the health and fitness results they deserve. The best place to start is on their nutrition. But where do you start? What recommendations do you make and when do you make them? How do you get your clients to actually follow a plan?
This comprehensive, self-guided nutrition course integrates the science of nutrition with the art of behavior change coaching, which is the key to helping people make sustainable changes in their lives. Based not only on theory, but data from coaching over 100,000 real clients in hundreds of real-world situations, you'll be given a practical system that shows you exactly what to do at every stage of the nutrition coaching process—from the very first time you meet with a client until they reach all their goals.
Completing Precision Nutrition Level 1 provided me with better tools and techniques to help my clients and athletes integrate realistic, workable nutrition strategies into their daily lives."
