Nutrition for Action - Action for Results

Do you have a solid exercise routine but you are not seeing results? Come explore how food and exercise should work together. While the answer to losing weight and getting healthier is technically "eat less and move more" - it is not necessarily eat very little and workout a lot. The key is to find that balance.

In this class, you will learn how to fuel your workouts properly to lose weight, build muscle, burn fat and workout appropriately so every minute at the gym is used efficiently.
