I would like to make more of a career out of Nutrition and Fitness, but am unsure of a good path. I would like formal training/certification, but not necessarily a 4-year degree since I’m in my late 20s and work full time now.

If I become a nutritionist, I don’t focus as much on fitness. If I become a personal trainer/instructor, I don’t get the training in proper diet. Any suggestions on what career or certification would be a good mix of nutrition and fitness?Learning about the in’s and out’s of internet marketing can be difficult unless you have a great mentor and where can that mentorship be found? If you really want to succeed online you must get yourself a copy of Commission Blueprint 2.0 created by Steven Clayton and Tim Godfrey. The tools alone are worth the cost alone. Best wishes!

As far as I know, neither Nutritionist nor personal trainer are protected terms, so all you need to do is make up business cards and you are in business.

However to be at the top of the heap, becoming a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist should be your ultimate goal.

You’re right.

I need this for my Food&Nutrition Coursework so i will need all the information you can give! Oh and please suggest any good websites i can go to for this question. Please help and thanks!

By not doing a low calorie diet which causes loss of lean tissues & by doing a high calorie, low carb way of eating. They have to eliminate starches, but there is rarely much nutritional value in sugar & starches, but there is considerable nutritional value in low carb foods.

from the article below -

Numerous current studies show that dieters who follow high-protein low-carb strategies–even plans with higher fat intake–lose more fat and maintain or gain more muscle mass than dieters who rely on higher carb diets.

Yes, you read that right–many dieters actually gained muscle mass without working out, simply by eating a high-protein diet. This is due to several factors. First, amino acids from protein drive muscle growth. When you consume a high-protein meal, amino acids from the protein travel to muscle cells and actually initiate the processes that cause muscle growth.

I highly recommend adding virgin coconut oil to your diet. All fats can be used for sustained energy, but coconut oil is the (only) fat that can be used for quick energy like a carb.

It takes awhile to convert the body from being fueled by glucose to being fueled by fat but it does convert. It can take several weeks for the body to be able to compete athletically while using fat for fuel. The body does not become fat adapted though it "carb cycling" techniques are employed. Low carb marathon runners don’t "hit the wall" with mid race fuel changeovers. It’s not being fueled by fat that slows them down, it’s the immediate fuel conversion period.

This study:

http://www.nutritionandmetabolism.com/content/1/1/2

seems to suggest that after one has become fat adapted, endurance exercise performance returns to normal, but sprint performance remains poor. The suggested reason is that this type of exercise can not be fueled by fat, it must be fueled by glucose.

If you eat protein without sufficient fuel calories from fats or carbs, then you convert dietary protein to fuel leaving no protein for cellular needs, forcing the body to catabolize it’s own lean tissues. Carbs may be optional, but fuel calories are not but they can come from fat or carbs, but not protein. There are not enough calories in fruits & vegs to fuel the body.

If you don’t keep your calories high enough, the body will strip it’s own lean tissue for nutrition. Although that may look great on a scale it will make it MUCH easier to accumulate fat in the future (since all that pesky lean tissue burning up calories will be gone).

Protein is a very inefficient fuel to use exclusively for long term & the byproducts of the conversion to fuel can be dangerous if they overwhelm the body faster than the body can clear out the nitrogen & ammonia..

Just for example – Someone asked "what if" about a diet of 500g of pure protein (2000 calories a day)

500g protein with no fat would be fatal. Fat is essential but protein without fat will cause diarrhea & then death. So this next bit is only hypothetically speaking.

500g of protein only would turn the protein into a fuel source and not be able to be used for tissue repairs & cellular regeneration. So although you would think 500g of protein would be sufficient for these needs, it would be converted to a very inefficient fuel source with a dangerous buildup of nitrogen & ammonia (byproducts of gluconeogenesis). The body can handle some of these byproducts but not large quantities for long term. So in essence, all this protein would be processed as fuel and the body would STILL have to catabolize it’s own lean tissues for a protein source. 100% of the protein would be needed to convert to 58% glucose – it would be equal to fueling the body with 1160 calories of carbs and NO protein (IF your only ingestion was 2000 calories (500g) in pure protein).

It’s confusing to eat SO much protein and have none bioavailable but your body requires FUEL calories (which can come from fat OR carbs or both) AND protein.

BUT if you ate more than sufficient protein with more than sufficient dietary fat calories AND controlled carbs to less than 9grams per hour (Maximum carbs would be 144grams day or 576 calories) the balance of fuel calories would HAVE to be from dietary fats – at 9 calories per gram.

As long as you have <9grams carbs per hour, you will maintain insulin control & shouldn’t gain weight, no matter the calories because insulin, the fat storage hormone is not activated. Controlling insulin levels will balance out other hormones & allow sex hormones (testosterone in males) & human growth hormone (HGH) to be produced naturally so lean tissue will be gained even without exercise.

Mary Jarmolowich (or Mary J as she is known in the competition world) has competed in numerous marathons over the past few years, yet wanted more of a challenge, and so entered a fitness model competition, winning her first show and gaining a Pro Card.

Talking exclusively to LA Muscle.TV in one of the premiere nightclubs in Las Vegas – Prive, where she works, Mary tells all about how she learnt to take care of her body through proper nutrition and training that enabled her to step up on stage at the Mr. Olympia, and taking 3rd in the Flex Bikini Model Search.

Mary then takes us along for one of her 11-mile runs in the Nevada dessert, and shows us how she prepares for both marathon and the stage by performing interval sprints in the canyon.

We find out just how Mary manages to balance entertaining A-list celebrities in one of the
Premiere nightclubs in Las Vegas, including Lindsay Lohan, Britney Spears, Paris Hilton, alongside her strict training regime to maintain her winning physique.

Find out how Mary is able to eat out most nights, and drink with the guests she entertains at night, whilst still being able to run and work out during the day. It’s an inspirational and motivating message to know that if Mary can have the self-discipline to make it work within her environment, then you can do it to.

If you ever find yourself in Las Vegas, be sure to check out Prive nightclub, located within Planet Hollywood Hotel and Casino, or if you cant wait until then, we’re sure you won’t have to wait long until you see Mary in up-and-coming fitness magazines.

Sports nutrition has indeed become worldwide. People from all walks of life have become more and more concerned about it. Before, they were not that conscious about the food that they eat, the nutrients that they get from it. Now, however, the nutrition labels in almost all types of commodities prove that peoples curiosity for nutrition should indeed be addressed.

The incorporation of nutrition programs in several fitness centers and sports facilities also support the worldwide concern for sports nutrition.

Before, fitness in terms of sports and exercise in general is seen as an independent aspect and has nothing to do with diet and nutrition.

I woke up in the middle of the night screaming in pain, the muscles in my legs searing and taut. After pacing up and down my hallway for a few minutes I gathered myself. “I was sleeping!” I thought. “How could my legs burn so badly in the middle of the night like that?”

I was about 15, and I had recently joined the cross country team. I was running about 10 miles a day, which was more than I’d ever done previously. I approached my coach the following day and told him about my blowtorch-legs experience. Without saying a word he whirled around and went rooting through his duffel bag. He handed me a banana. “What’s this?” I asked. “It’s Mother Nature’s fire extinguisher,” he coolly replied.

Nowadays, as I train to run across the country to raise money for homeless youth, I realize that it’s not the banana’s bright yellow sheath that won over my coach so long ago. It’s the potassium.

Bananas are one of nature’s most potassium-rich offerings. To put it simply, potassium acts as a lubricant for your joints and muscles. It’s like oil in your car. Beginning runners should never pass up bananas when rolling through the grocery store, as each one of these little miracle fruits contains an average of 450mg of of this runner-essential element.

Think about it. Here is this wonderful yellow fruit. It’s inexpensive, easy to find and compact. You can buy a bunch and keep them on top of your refrigerator for up to a week. And if they spoil, just throw ‘em in the freezer and you’ve got the main ingredient for a tasty banana bread recipe.

It’s the potassium that will keep your muscles in good shape for daily running routines, but bananas are chock full of several other essential vitamins and minerals. Vitamin C, which helps your body fend off infection, is abundant in bananas. So is Vitamin B, which aids metabolism. Need more fiber to ease digestion? Bananas are fiber-rich.

But perhaps the biggest added bonus from our yellow friend is its natural energy boost.
