Yes. Upon completion of the course material you will receive a CPE certificate for the 16 hours of training. 

Yes — with the right foundation.

This course is designed for practitioners and health professionals, so it assumes a working understanding of basic physiology, biochemistry and nutrition principles. We move beyond introductory concepts and into applied clinical reasoning, fuel systems, hormonal influences, and performance strategy.

If you’re a student who has already completed foundational subjects in anatomy, physiology and nutrition, and you’re comfortable with terms like insulin resistance, macronutrient metabolism, mitochondrial function and hormonal regulation, you’ll gain a great deal from the depth of this training.

However, if you’re at the very beginning of your studies with no grounding in these areas yet, the content may feel overwhelming. This is not an entry-level nutrition course, it’s a clinical performance framework.

In short: advanced students, yes. Absolute beginners, not yet.

You receive lifetime access.

That means you can revisit the recordings, slides and resources whenever you need to — whether that’s straight after the live sessions, six months later when a complex case walks into clinic, or years down the track when you want to refresh your clinical thinking.

Having ongoing access allows you to consolidate the material at your own pace and return to the frameworks whenever you need clarity or refinement.

Yes — all sessions are recorded.

You’ll receive access to the full recorded lecture for each module, so you can revisit key concepts, pause and take notes, or rewatch sections that require deeper integration.

This course becomes a valuable clinical reference library you can return to whenever needed.

No — this course does not provide a formal qualification or accredited certification.

It is a practitioner-level professional development training designed to deepen your clinical skill set and strengthen your confidence in applying sports nutrition principles in practice.

You’ll gain robust frameworks, practical tools, and applied metabolic insight — but this is continuing education, not a registered qualification pathway.

Because this isn’t theory pulled from a textbook — it’s 25+ years of clinical experience distilled into practical, usable frameworks.

I’ve worked with elite athletes, everyday active clients, teenagers, perimenopausal women, and high-performing professionals. I’ve seen what works, what doesn’t, and where practitioners get stuck. This course is built from real cases, real outcomes, and real metabolic problem-solving.

I don’t teach trends. I teach physiology.

You’ll learn how fuel systems actually function in the body. How hormones influence performance and recovery. How to interpret what’s happening when progress stalls. How to structure macronutrients and supplementation with clinical precision, not guesswork.

If you want depth, clarity, and confidence in sports nutrition — grounded in science and tested in clinic — you’re in the right place.

No — and this is one of the biggest misconceptions about sports nutrition.

The principles of performance nutrition apply to far more than elite sport. They apply to any human with a metabolism.

Understanding fuel systems, muscle physiology, recovery, and metabolic flexibility will elevate your work with:

• Active everyday clients who train a few times a week

• Weight loss clients trying to preserve muscle while reducing fat

• Perimenopausal women navigating body composition changes

• Teens involved in school sport

• Clients with insulin resistance who exercise but aren’t progressing

• Chronic fatigue cases where energy production is compromised

• Anyone wanting to maintain muscle and metabolic resilience as they age

Sports nutrition is really applied physiology. Once you understand how the body fuels, adapts, and recovers, you can use that knowledge across a wide range of clinical presentations.

This course expands your capability — not just your “athlete” niche.

Yes — very much so.

Female physiology is not just “male physiology with hormones added in.” Training load, menstrual cycles, under-fuelling, stress, and metabolic adaptation all interact in ways that require nuance.

In this course we cover:

• The menstrual cycle and its impact on training and recovery

• Under-fuelling and Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport (RED-S)

• Hypothalamic amenorrhoea vs PCOS considerations

• Protein requirements for female athletes

• Perimenopause and metabolic shifts

• The impact of chronic stress on performance and body composition

• Recognising and addressing metabolic adaptation

Many practitioners feel uncertain when it comes to female athletes — especially teens and perimenopausal women. This training gives you the physiological understanding to assess what’s really happening and respond with confidence.

Because supporting performance without compromising hormonal health requires precision — not guesswork.
