How it Works

Step 1: Initial Consult and Assessment

Connect virtually with Jackson for a 60-minute intro consult covering the process and talk through your individual goals, diet, and exercise history. By the end of the appointment, you and Jackson will develop a program tailored specifically for you. If appropriate, a discussion around creating and keeping a food and training journal, as a tool during and beyond the program, can be most helpful in achieving your goals.

Step 2: Follow-up Sessions

Over the course of the next 30 days, you’ll meet once a week for 4 total sessions. These conversations are an opportunity to ask questions, work through challenges, refine the plan, and have a personal sports nutritionist/coach at your disposal to provide support.

Step 3: Final Assessment

At the end of your program, you’ll receive a written comprehensive, individualized assessment and plan based on your data and consultations. This will include recommendations for meals and fueling strategies, resources, recipes, and more.
