Why Work with a Nutritionist?
Our on staff certified nutritionists are armed with the knowledge to be able to help you make better decisions when you eat. The certifications obtained by our certified nutritionists are nationally recognized and require continuing education units so we are always using the latest science.
Just like our educated and experienced trainers, our certified nutritionists have the knowledge to help you reach your fitness goals. Their extra training prepares them to help you meet dietary goals and support your exercise regime for optimal results.
Your personal trainer and your certified nutritionist will work together to craft the perfect training and nutrition plan for you. When you have both professionals working together, you can supercharge your efforts and meet your goals in no time. As your trainer adapts your workouts, your nutritionist will modify your nutrition needs so you can get the most out of your health journey.
We make it easy for you to combine your fitness goals with your overall health. You can meet with your certified nutritionist right from our gym or via Zoom so you have one convenient and central location to take charge of your health.
Is Hiring a Dietitian or Nutritionist Worth It?
Working With a Nutritionist Yields Results
The health journal Family Practice reported in a recent study that people who worked with a dietitian or nutritionist lost 2.6 lbs in their controlled study, compared to 0.5 lbs of weight gain in the group of people who didn’t engage a dietitian. When you work with a dietitian or nutritionist, you will have follow-up visits, personally-tailored nutrition plans to use, and the accountability of having your results tracked by someone who cares.
Your Nutritionist Will Create a Unique Plan For You
What is your schedule like? What is your nutrition budget? What is your medical history, and what are your health goals? Such are the factors that a registered dietician or a certified nutritionist will consider when creating your nutrition plan.
Only someone with an intensive nutrition education can tie nutrient research, your medical history, and your health goals together into a cohesive eating plan.
We encourage you to bring questions to your consultations, as well as information about medications you might be taking, your health history, and more. Our team of dieticians would be happy to speak with you about your concerns and goals, and every piece of information you can provide will help.
It’s Not About Being Skinny – It’s About Health
Our certified nutritionist can certainly advise you on how to lose weight, but they go one step further: they will teach you how to be healthy. For a professional dietitian, it’s not about skipping meals or starving yourself.
