While you may not be prescribing supplements, as a personal trainer, you can influence your client's ability to make healthy choices in their diet. The more knowledgeable you are about nutrition, the better you can help them. It also makes you more marketable. Share any areas of expertise. For bodybuilders, you can talk about the importance of incorporating the right amount of protein and carbohydrates. For weight loss, you can talk about cutting out sugar and increasing vegetables and high-fiber foods. Share whatever you have found through research and experience that has worked for you and your clients.

"During my personal training course, I was offered additional training in nutrition at a reduced cost. I felt that having experience in nutrition would make me a more knowledgeable trainer and would benefit my clients. As a sports nutritionist, I can increase my client's endurance while decreasing recovery times by creating a meal plan specific for each client."
