You know exercise is just part of the equation: Your clients won't reach their goals without good nutrition, too.

But you're a business owner and a coach, not a nutritionist. And there are so many definitions of good nutrition out there—keto, paleo, Zone, intermittent fasting, macros—so what should you tell your clients to follow?

Mike and his team of coaches have helped over 35,000 clients reach their health and fitness goals through nutrition, and they do it not by prescribing dogma but by addressing behavior.
