If it’s a certified nutrition consultant, make sure they are Precision Nutrition certified and/or a Certified Nutritionist from the International Society of Sports Nutrition (CISSN)." that's a very solid point about checking into your nutritionists background. most dieticians are trained to help clients how to eat in order to deal with acute problems (they spend a year interning at a HOSPITAL working with sick people), such as kidney failure for instance, and have absolutely no clue how to eat in order to lose weight, gain muscle, or maximize athletic performance. in four years of college, not a single one of my nutrition classes taught a thing about weight loss or building muscle. and i agree with you about the Precision Nutrition program, that certification is top-notch. id trust a Precision Nutrition certified nutritionist over a typical Registered Dietician any day “But make sure if its an RD that they have a background in sports nutrition.

While I do agree that fat loss can be achieved without any energy systems training, you can say the same about strength training, and nutrition as well. This is why I said "optimal" fat loss. For optimal fat loss, it is mandatory that you follow all three- proper resistance training, proper cardiovascular (energy systems) training, and proper nutrition.

They don't realize greatness takes time. People have to start to value delayed gratification. I'm not to going to be a hypocrite because when I want things I want it now, who doesn't. However, I know my body doesn't work that way. Too bad most people think their body works that way... Seriously WTF... An example of common sense not being so common :-) Thanks Valentine….Unfortunately most people who start up a fitness program expect GREAT results after 2 weeks of hard training or less.
