    Default Nutrition courses?

    Hey guys, first post on this forum.

    My question is about a nutrition, I have several certifications but they do not deal specifically with nutrition. They most definitely touch on it but sometimes they are not practical for most of my clients due to work constraints, time, $, willingness. (paleo, zone)

    I am looking for an in depth nutrition course that is quite in depth. I am not looking to do a 4 month school course or become a nutritionist. Due to working 50+ hours a week, I cannot afford to take months off work. I am looking for something that is very specific to our industry. I feel this is the weakest spot of my skill set and want badly to improve it and will do whatever it takes.

    Thank you for your help and I look forward to sharing ideas on this forum.

    A few suggestions:

    1) Nutrition Dimension. A variety of nutrition courses written by registered dietitians. One course I saw was Practical Nutrition for Fitness Professionals. Also, some of the courses provide continuing education for ACE, ACSM, NSCA, NASM.

    2) Nancy Clark (Sports Nutritionist & Author - About Nancy) Has home study courses focusing on sports nutrition.
