NUTRITION COACHING

At the YMCA, we care about your health. Many of our health care problems such as, heart disease, cancer, diabetes, and obesity are related to poor nutrition. Nutrition coaching can provide education, support and accountability to help YMCA members improve their bodies, minds and spirit. The coaching is tailored to meet the needs of your personal lifestyle goals; whether that is losing body fat, improving athletic performance, building muscle, or learning healthy substitutions, we have qualified and committed coaches to accompany you on your fitness journey!

HOW IT WORKS


The process begins with a one-hour assessment that will assess usual dietary intake, activity level, nutritional beliefs and preferences. The coach may begin to identify areas where change is needed. Each individual's situation and background are carefully considered.

During coaching sessions, the nutritionist provides information, educational materials, challenges, support, and follow-up care for the client to make and maintain the needed dietary and/or behavior adjustments. A large part of the coaching process includes discussions about real or perceived barriers, setting realistic and trackable goals, establishing support systems, and determining the follow-up or long-term compliance to learned changes.

After your free nutrition assessment with a nutrition coach, you may choose from several coaching packages to guide your nutrition journey. Sessions are 30 minutes and can be done in person or virtually.
