June 16th, 2006: Toronto, ON
Precision Nutrition: Designing World-Class Programs
$159 CAD ($119 for CPTN Members)
Click here to register at cptn.com

While the traditional approach to nutrition has centred around the idea of portion/calorie control, this approach has lead to countless failures to optimize health, body composition, and performance. This is because optimal nutrition focuses not only on how much the client eats but what the client eats and when the client eats. As trainers, nutrition coaches, and athletes, if you’re not paying attention to these three important variables, you can’t expect to optimize the nutrition plans of your clients. Dr John Berardi will teach you the three steps to creating optimal nutrition plans. Also, you’ll take a page out of Dr Berardi’s notes on outcome based decision making, outcome vs. behavior goals, steps for facilitating behavior change, and more.

JB'S NOTE: This seminar is part of a "pre-conference" series, the conference in question being the annual CPTN conference. I'll be speaking at that as well, along with a number of other great speakers. If you'd like to come along for that, please do. You don't need to attend the conference to attend my "pre-conference" seminar, though, and in fact the pre-conference seminar will be much more detailed than my talk at the conference itself (simply because I have more time to talk at the pre-conference).

PHIL'S NOTE: The online registration page at cptn.com can be a bit confusing. To sign up for JB's pre-conference seminar, scroll down and fill out your info in the Registration/Billing and Contact sections, then below in the June 16th Pre-Conference Sessions section, select "Precision Nutrition" from the "Pre-Conference Sessions" drop-down menu, and "$159.00" from the "Non-Member Price" drop-down. Hit "Register" at the bottom of the form
