Sports Nutrition & Fitness Bundle

What You'll Learn

When it comes to today's athletes, nutrition plays a large role in maximizing their performance. From basketball players to powerlifters, hockey teams to soccer stars, there's never been more importance on how athletic clients fuel their workouts through their day-to-day eating habits.

That’s why we created our all-new Sports Nutrition & Fitness Bundle, perfectly tailored to meet the demands of a hungry client base looking to train better and see positive results on the playing field.

We combine our industry-leading Certified Personal Trainer (CPT) Guided Study program with our Certified Sports Nutrition Coach (CSNC) course to help set you apart from other trainers by teaching you the fundamentals of nutrition and training. With this bundle, you’ll gain the practical knowledge to create safe and effective exercise programs for your clients while getting face-to-face with the facts about nutrition and how to apply them to your athletic clients.

Both programs offer actionable techniques for enhancing the quality of exercise and sports nutrition for your client base. After completing both courses in this bundle, you’ll be able to take the skills you learn and directly apply them to your own services and development as a trainer while boosting your portfolio and earnings at the same time.
