LEVEL 1 — NUTRITION COACHING

LEVEL 1 — NUTRITION COACHING

“Tell me what to eat.”

Monthly Investment

$100/month

Primary Purpose

Level 1 is designed for individuals who primarily need assistance establishing an appropriate calorie and macronutrient strategy for their body-composition goals.

This is the most independent coaching option.

The client is responsible for implementing the nutritional strategy independently while the coach provides the calculations, education, guidance, and periodic adjustments necessary to help the client remain on course.

Included Services

Initial Client Intake

The client completes an initial intake covering applicable information such as:

●       Current bodyweight

●       Height

●       Age

●       Activity level

●       Training frequency

●       Occupation/activity demands

●       Current dietary habits

●       Body-composition goals

●       Weight-management history

●       Primary goals

●       Relevant lifestyle factors

Energy-Expenditure Assessment

The coach establishes an individualized estimate of daily energy expenditure using appropriate available information.

This may include:

●       Estimated resting energy requirements

●       Activity level

●       Exercise activity

●       Lifestyle activity

●       Observed bodyweight trends

The resulting estimate is used as a starting point rather than treated as an infallible measurement.

Actual changes in bodyweight and body composition are used to evaluate whether the initial strategy is producing the intended result.

Calorie Strategy

The client receives an individualized calorie target based upon the selected goal.

Examples include:

●       Fat-loss calorie target

●       Weight-maintenance calorie target

●       Muscle-gain calorie target

●       Body-recomposition calorie target

Macronutrient Guidance

The coach establishes appropriate macronutrient targets, including:

●       Carbohydrates

●       Dietary fat

The client receives education regarding how to use these targets within their normal dietary habits.

Progress Monitoring

The client tracks appropriate progress indicators such as:

●       Bodyweight

●       Weight trends

●       Circumference measurements when appropriate
