One of your initial jobs with a new client is to spend some time covering the basics of nutrition with them. To what level of detail you cover is completely up to you. In this episode, we discuss some of the fundamentals we believe should be discussed with all new clients to give them a sense of understanding around nutrition.

In this episode we introduce our second mini-series, in which we will be covering all-things nutrition. The idea with this series is to breakdown a complex topic in to some way-to-use systems you can implement with your clients immediately. We will also interview guest experts in the area to help us unpack some of the key topics.

Having movement assessments at the start of a client journey is a great tool. But that's not the only place it should exist in your business.

Once you've taken a client through a movement assessment, how do you use that to write a training program? That's exactly what this episode covers. We also discuss some of the common variables and parameters you might set when working with new clients.
