About the Personal Training & Sports Nutrition course

The trainers who stand out are the ones who can coach both the workout and the plate. This combined programme gives you two in-demand skills at once: personal training — assessment, exercise programming and safe coaching — and sports nutrition — fuelling, recovery and body-composition guidance for Indian clients. You'll learn to design workouts and matching nutrition plans for fat loss, muscle gain and general fitness, and to keep clients consistent with real coaching, not just plans on paper. For gyms, online coaching or independent practice, this pairing lets you deliver complete results and charge for them.

Who it's for & what you'll gain: aspiring and current personal trainers; gym and fitness staff; and online fitness coaches. By the end you can assess and program for clients, build matching nutrition plans, and run a complete training-and-nutrition service — all within scope.
