What's in the course?
It is widely recognised that exercise alone is not enough: your level of fitness is also affected by what you eat. As people become more health-conscious, the ability to advise clients on diet and weight-related problems is becoming an essential requirement for the serious fitness professional.
 The Nutrition and Weight Management E-Learning Module has been specifically created to provide health and fitness professionals, and those keen to embark on a career in fitness or nutrition, with the latest underpinning knowledge about diet and nutrition - backed up by scientific evidence.
This course is a component of five programmes namely Personal Trainer Professional, Advance Exercise Specialist, Studio Professional, Complete Nutrition Advisor and Total Immersion, but can also be taken separately. The course content covers:
- Fundamentals of nutrition - factors that influence eating habits, what constitutes a healthy diet, macro-nutrients (proteins, carbohydrates and fats), micro-nutrients (vitamins and minerals), NSP (fibre)
- Optimal nutrition - the balance of good health: plate model, fundamentals of digestion, how food is utilised for energy, how the body stores energy, energy balance-the bigger picture, exercise and weight loss-which type of exercise works, body fat percentage-comparing different techniques for calculating this key area of weight management, food labelling and diet food
- Application of the theory
- Your role as a Weight Management Advisor
