OVERVIEW
Foundation in Sports Nutrition is organized by Niel Asher Education.
Sports nutrition is one of the most talked-about areas in modern health and fitness, but it is also one of the most misunderstood.
Foundation in Sports Nutrition provides a practical, evidence-informed introduction to nutrition for recovery, hydration, performance, resilience, and long-term athletic health.
Presented by registered dietitian and fitness coach Steph Hnatiuk, this course helps learners move beyond confusing trends and focus on realistic, sustainable strategies that support athletes and active clients in the real world.
Description:
This course explores the foundations of sports nutrition, including fueling, carbohydrates, protein, hydration, recovery, supplements, body composition, and athlete mindset.
Rather than promoting restrictive dieting or performance shortcuts, the course emphasizes balanced nutrition, adequate fueling, recovery support, hydration, and critical thinking around supplements and marketing claims.
Students will gain a clearer understanding of how nutrition influences training adaptation, performance, recovery capacity, body composition, and long-term health.
Supported by video tutorials, a downloadable workbook, companion course, lesson quizzes, final assessment, certificate of completion, and lifetime access, this course provides a practical foundation for professionals working with athletes, runners, active clients, and fitness populations.
