It seems like every week there is another professional athlete announcing their vegan lifestyle and how it has changed their performance and helps them attain elite status among their competitors. Athletes like Lance Armstrong, Rich Roll, Timothy Bradley Jr., Scott Jurek, Brendan Brazier, Steve Nash, Tony Gonzales and Jake Shields to name a few.
I happened to land a new client last week that is a high caliber athlete. Pretty exciting stuff for me and for them…as they enjoyed a very successful plant-based first week on plan. It is with this notion that I am continuing my education through the National Academy of Sports Medicine – Fitness Nutrition Specialist program. Along with my Plant-Based Nutrition Certificate from Cornell University this program will add a strong foundation to my education. After I complete the program, I am considering the NASM-CPT program to become a Personal Trainer as well.
I am really excited to get started! I look forward to learning all that I can to help my clients achieve their nutrition goals.
