Sports Nutrition as a major in college
Hey. Guys. I realized the only thing i LOVE to do in life is bodybuilding and being fit and eating right. That said, i realize the career for me is sports nutrition. I want to be one of the guys that writes some of the new advanced nutrition articles in IRONMAN or MUSCULAR DEVELOPMENT, or even mens health magazines... So I realize that sports nutrition is what i want to do. I love making sure im healthy... counting every gram of protein/carb/fat i put into my body.. WHO ELSE IS LIKE THIS?
BUT WHAT IS A GREAT COLLEGE FOR THAT? Cal-Berkley i know is an excellent school but that would be in the future for me when I'm better knowledged and have more money.
One person told me that going to college for Chiropractor is one excellent way to go through this field. Its great money and you can still bodybuild and get your Personal Trainers degree and then from there you could go to a College just for Sports Nutrition and study that too. Besides taht, being a chiropractor you'd know all the right exercises to help heal your injured bodyparts... we al know Ronnie uses chiropractors and massage therapists a ton as a natural healing process!

I go to the University of Florida. My major is undeclared, but there is a good chance i'll choose exercise physiology. I know we have a nutrition major also. We basically have anything you could think of. We're one of the top all around state universities in the nation. So definitely consider UF.

And it's Berkeley.
Good luck either way.

But if im taking core classes just to get some cheap classes at a community college that doesnt offer a specific nutriton course.. should I probably take a pharamacist approach, and learn all i can about the drug aspect of bodybuilding? that way i know what does and doesnt affect certain things like your liver, etc. Or should I take classes that encompass " Multiskilled Health Technician Certificate " (I have no idea waht that is, but its a section)
Or should i jsut get business classes? any help would be helpful.
I know its what i want, but i need help deciding.| Bringing Fitness into your Lifestyle |
