Nourish Balance Thrive ETP Certification Course for Coaches with Brad Dieter, Ph.D
Could you afford to spend $250,000 on an education? No, neither could I. How lucky are we then that people like Drs. Mike T. Nelson Ph.D. and Dr. Brad Dieter Ph.D are willing to distill what they’ve learned into a $250 training course? Over the past two years, I’ve done all kinds of biology, biochemistry, physiology, functional medicine, nutrition and fitness massively open online training courses and I’ve loved them all. Educators pour their heart and soul into these resources and we should take full advantage.
The Eat to Perform certification course covers the basic mechanisms of exercise physiology and the interactions between nutrition and human performance. The material is delivered via video and PDF and the exam is done online. A Facebook support group and lifetime updates are included in the price. Sign up now, it’s a steal!
