Achieves the interlocking goals of good health, improved performance and optimal body composition.

2. The most significant limiting factor for most clients is their nutritional intake.

B. Improve nutrient density

Insulin Resistance

Condition in which normal amounts of the hormone insulin are inadequate to produce a normal response from fat, muscle, and liver cells

The trainers scope of practice does not include

Dispensing nutritional prescriptions for specific health conditions, especially medical nutrition therapy, yet most clients expect trainers to help with their eating plan. It's up to you and your state board to decide just how much information you can provide.

When using nutrition technologies, you should

Follow a specific process that is based on logical workflow and timeline.

Low caloric density =

Foods provide fewer calories in a large portion.

High caloric density =

Foods that provide many calories in small portions

Nutrient Density

Foods that provide substantial amounts of nutrients with only the necessary calories.

Performance

Function, action, or operation whether athletically or in daily life.

Laws of Thermodynamics

Principles that govern energy exchange, including heat exchange and the performance of work

Energy Balance

Relationship between all sources of energy intake and energy output; an organism is said to be in energy balance when energy flow into the body and out of the body is equal; often evidenced by a stable body weight.

Body Composition

Relative relationship between lean body mass (which includes bone mass, body water, muscle mass, and organ mass) and fat mass ( which includes adipose tissue and intra-tissue fat deposits)

Genetics

Negative Energy Balance

When energy flow out of the body exceeds energy flow into the body, often evidence by a decreasing body weight
