A Three Part Virtual Workshop

Workshop - Part 1
Improving and Personalizing the Energy Balance Assessment and RX
Methods and formulas to calculate energy intake and energy expenditure are highly variable. Evidence-Based and Best Practices will be recommended by a team of experts (St. Jeor Nutrition Associates) to improve and personalize the energy balance equation by introducing new technology, practical tools and innovations in the field. Comparison with current practices will be discussed and the workshops will encourage collaborations with attendees to move the field forward and improve client outcomes.

Workshop - Part 2
Application and Skills Development for Achieving and Maintaining Energy Balance
Different skill sets are needed for prevention of undesired weight gain or loss on an individualized level.
