The food you eat plays a vital role in reaching weight loss and fitness goals. As a fitness trainer, poor eating choices can hold clients back from shedding weight or improving their sports performance — results are made in the kitchen before they’re built in the gym.
This course on plant-based nutrition familiarises you with the basics of healthy eating, so you can offer general, non-prescriptive dietary advice and encourage clients to align their eating habits with government dietary guidelines to support their fitness goals.
You will learn:
- The science of nutrition and important macro and micronutrients.
- The functions and benefits of carbohydrates, fats and proteins.
- The functions and benefits of vitamins and minerals.
- Healthy eating information and tips, as provided by Public Health England (PHE).
- The difference between saturated and unsaturated fats.
- How a plant-based diet can benefit you.
- How plant-based nutrition can enhance sports performance and aid healthy weight loss.
This course is part of our Health & Fitness courses, and pairs well with our related Personal Development training.
