- Hello and welcome to or welcome back to Sorta Healthy! We're happy you're here with us today to discuss nutrition coaching with your personal training clients.
In this video, Jeff will be going over how to help your personal training clients better lose weight with our week by week nutrition system (coaching forms are included as well!).
Nutrition coaching is paramount with your personal training clients in order for them to reach their goals and have the success they're looking for. If you're not doing some kind of nutrition with your clients, it's time that you start (**disclaimer: different states have different laws, that being said, you can still ask clients about what they're eating**).

Thank you for all your video’s, they are super helpful. Do you have a copy/link of the food portion sizes that you showed in your video ☝️
Glad you find them helpful! This document has the portion sizing: www.precisionnutrition.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/Hand-portion-guide-FF.pdf
Exactly what I needed for the new year, thanks! For existing clients who have not been tracking food, but have been training with you for a while, would you start them like a brand-new client at week 1? Any special advice for clients who are resistant to tracking but "want to lose weight"?
Thanks for the support! Ya, I generally I’ll start a client at week 1 even if they’ve been training with me for a while. It’s really meant to be an accountability system so whether they’re a new client or one that’s been around for a while the accountability you provide will be similar.
I cover what to do if they won’t track their food in the later part of this video. Basically, you just work on other strategies one at a time and use a different way of calorie counting.
Hey Jeff, thanks for all you do here. I was wondering if, as a Kansas (red state according to the map you posted) resident, you would elaborate a bit more on what if any nutritional advice we can give our clients. Thanks!
Thanks for the support! You aren’t legally around to give any nutrition advice in a red state unless you’re a dietitian. You could still give a client something that was created by a dietician but that’s pretty much it.
I’m not gonna lie to you, many people break those rules because there’s really no way to know who’s doing what, but those are the rules.
First! Commenting for the algorithm!
Thanks JD!
Thanks alot for all the tips/support you provide us with
You’re welcome! What do you mean by nutrition plans? Legally, you can’t provide meal plans in any state/online as a personal trainer. You can provide nutritional guidance with a PT certification. Online seems to be a little bit of a gray area but certifications like Precision Nutrition certainly make you more qualified to discuss nutrition with clients (guidance, macros..)
Thank you for your content, you make it simple and elegant to help PT. A question, even applying this system of nutrition accountability, what will u do if they at times are not truthful about their nutrition
Thank you! Unfortunately, if someone is lying to you there really isn’t too much you can do. You can only help someone with nutrition when they’re honest and willing to put in some work.
@@SortaHealthyTrainerEducation thank you, I am truly grateful you have really helped me a lot, coming across your content has definitely been god sent
Do typically charge clients for nutritional intervention and how would you go about that approach?
Thanks.. and I really enjoy the content you put together for trainers.
Thank you! We often include nutrition coaching in the same packages as our training. If we’re talking about that there’s no extra charge for nutrition.
If someone only wants to buy nutritional coaching and not training we charge a similar hourly rate to training.
We also do online nutrition coaching but that’s a pretty different service all together.
Hi, what nutrition certification do you recommend for personal trainers ?
Precision Nutrition Level 1 is a great one to get!
How important is it to become a certified nutritionist as a CPT? I am looking into getting certified as a CPT, and I am just wondering if I should spend the extra cash for the bundle with the nutritionist course? I plan to do NASM I think, and I want to do their performance enhancement course so I can train athletes. I live in OR by the way, so a green state.
Honestly, it’s not that important at all. Being a certified nutritionist basically means nothing. Anyone can call themselves a nutritionist because in almost all states and countries it’s not a legal or licensed position.
The only benefit you get from the course is knowledge. I always advise for as much education as possible. That being said, if you already know how to help clients with nutrition than you won’t get too much out of it. Clients certainly don’t care about certifications either.
If I were you I would just get the basic NASM certification and get some experience in the field and then figure out what other certs you want. Unfortunately, most of them (certs) are not nearly as useful as they probably should be.
Thanks for the information! I have a question. I have a BS in Kinesiology and have been a trainer for a year now without being asked to become a “certified PT.” I’m looking into starting my own business. Would I need to get certified? Thanks in advance!
You don’t need to get certified. A degree is certainly just as, or more effective than a cert. Just make sure that your liability insurance provider doesn’t care that you’re not certified. Clients certainly won’t care though.
Great video, however, I was hoping you could help clarify, I am a recently licensed fitness nutrition coach via ISSA, but live in Nj (a yellow state) can I legally provide nutrition coaching services such as helping them figure out their daily caloric intake, weight loss strategies like food journaling, etc.? Thanks🌻
Thanks for watching the video and for the question! First off, remember that you’re not licensed. You have a certification through ISSA. It doesn’t grant you anywhere near as much power as a license.
Second, New Jersey is a green state. This means you can do all of the nutrition coaching strats you just brought up. Just don’t do them with any clients who have medical issues.
@@SortaHealthyTrainerEducation hi, thank you kindly for getting back to me so promptly and for your answer, very helpful. If I may, one other question, if someone approaches me about wanting nutrition coaching so they lose weight , And they do have some kind of medical issue, would I legally be able to coach them if they get cleared by the doctor? Understanding that I would not be prescribing any kind of diet or dealing with any medical issue, simply strategies for losing weight. Thanks again🌻
I just got my personal trainer certification and nutritionists coach certification from ISSA and I’m very confused about not being able to help my posible clients with meal plans 🤔
What are you unsure about?
@@SortaHealthyTrainerEducationthe fact that they said we can’t prescribe or put together a meal plan for a client
@@carlaarias4951 unfortunately writing meal plans is not in the scope of a personal trainer or nutrition coach..only a RD. Check out your state laws for nutritionists/nutrition coaches to see what you can and can’t do.
@@SortaHealthyTrainerEducation I’m in California and they are some restrictions about that
Do you have to pay sales tax as a personal trainer selling a service? I have my own new in-home studio and I’m not sure how that works. Thanks!
You do have to pay sales tax on training in some states such as the one I live in CT. You’ll have to google your state to be sure about your area.
@@SortaHealthyTrainerEducation thanks!
i sign up in the Precision Nutrition but it seems the macro calculator only works once .hmmm
You can definitely run the calculator more than once. It doesn’t lock answers so you can change them as you go back to pages or refresh the beginning page to start again fresh.
Do you offer any Black Friday deals for your personal training?
We do not. Personally, I think you should be very weary of discounting your services.

Thank you !
professional fitness training without the support of nutrition is a disservice to a client. - ISSA
I definitely agree!
