Abstract:
With the knowledge that there is no combustion in the cell for energy production, and that all nutrients supply the body with energy, participants will now be ready to analyze applications, models, and methods for weight loss and weight management with a modern understanding of nutrition and exercise physiology. The aim for members of this workshop is to make them capable of using these modern concepts of nutrition and exercise (circa 2025) for conditions and situations that they uniquely and collectively can identify as obstacles, or later in their career . By including a central focus on program design and implementation strategies for both nutrition and exercise, participants will understand a viable approach to applications of this material. With this understanding, members will leave the workshop ready to better test and improve upon these models for themselves and their communities, as well as prepare for the unique situations that we (or I) may not have been able to understand or predict.
