Why Most Nutrition Advice Doesn't Stick

Because it was written for someone with a different life.

You already know vegetables are good and soda isn't. Information was never the problem. The problem is a plan that assumes you cook every meal, never travel for work, and never end up at a birthday dinner in Newport on a Tuesday.

Our nutritionist starts from how you eat now — the drive-thru on the way to practice, the client lunches, the family dinners — and builds targets and structure that survive contact with a real week. That's the same approach behind our clients' documented transformations.

30 minutes, one on your actual habits

Schedule, restaurants, travel, cooking reality, what's failed before. The session is recorded so nothing you say gets lost.

A written guide, made for you

After the session you get a personalized nutrition guide built from the conversation — not a template with your name typed in.

No forbidden foods

We teach people to eat at Chick-fil-A and Chipotle and still hit their numbers. Restriction gets abandoned. Structure lasts.

$99 flat. Nothing recurring.

One session, one guide, one price. No app subscription, no package, no upsell required to get the plan.

How It Works

Three steps. No homework before the first one.

What You Get

A real guide, from a real session. Here's what one looks like.

Below are excerpts from a guide written for a couple in Orange County who eat out most nights and cook with family on weekends. Names and personal details are changed. Yours will read differently: your places, your orders, your week.

Excerpt 1 · The only rule you need: 35% protein

Look at two numbers on any label or menu: protein in grams and calories. Ignore everything else.

protein grams × 4 ÷ calories. If it is 35% or higher, you can eat it. It does not matter what it is.

What we checked together on the callProteinCaloriesResult
Veggie chips (the "healthy" bag)2 g1306% — marketing, not food
Quest chips19 g14054% — nine times better
RX Bar12 g20024% — not good
Barebells bar20 g20040% — tastes like a Snickers
Excerpt 2 · Your orders: same places, built for you

Chick-fil-A

  • Spicy grilled chicken sandwich with an extra grilled patty. Small fry. Zero-calorie drink: light lemonade or a diet soda.
  • The secret is the sauce. Ask for honey roasted BBQ. It is not on the drive-through screen, so you have to ask. It tastes like Chick-fil-A sauce at about a third of the calories: roughly 60 vs 170 per packet.
  • Just those changes save you about 400 calories on the meal.

In-N-Out

  • Double-Double with ketchup and mustard instead of the spread. Want to go further: drop one slice of cheese, or try Protein Style. Either one counts.
  • Split one order of fries between you. Eat the burger first, then the fries, and you will want fewer of them.

Nutrition, handled in-house

Every coach is nutrition-certified — and we have a nutritionist on staff.

Every Train With Dave coach completes our in-house nutrition certification — the curriculum Dave built and teaches — so the person who writes your workouts also knows how to fuel them. The nutrition session is that same approach, delivered by our nutritionist, without requiring a training program.

Nutrition FAQ

What people ask before booking.

What happens in the $99 nutrition session?
You spend 30 minutes with our nutritionist on staff going through how you actually eat: your schedule, the restaurants you go to, travel, family meals, and what has and hasn't worked before. The session is recorded so nothing gets lost. Afterward you receive a written, personalized nutrition guide built from that conversation.
Do I need to be a Train With Dave training client?
No. The $99 session is open to anyone in Orange County. If you're already a Train With Dave client, nutrition coaching is included in your program — talk to your coach instead of booking here.
Is a nutritionist the same as a registered dietitian?
No. We provide nutrition coaching and education — calorie and protein targets, meal structure, and habits that fit your life. It is not medical nutrition therapy. If you have a diagnosed medical condition that requires a prescribed diet, work with your physician or a registered dietitian.
How much does a nutritionist cost in Orange County?
Ours is $99 flat: a 30-minute recorded session plus a written personalized nutrition guide. There is no subscription and no package to buy.
What's actually in the written guide?
Only what came up in your session, organized so you can act on it: one rule you can run on any menu or label, your exact orders at the places you already go, snack and sweet-treat swaps, what changes in home cooking, the habits that make cravings quieter, and a who-does-what-by-when table. Read a full anonymized sample.
Will the plan ban my favorite foods?
No. The plan is built around the food you already eat — including restaurants and fast food — with targets and structure that make it work. Plans with forbidden foods get abandoned in a week. The point is a plan you can follow.
What if I want training too?
Every Train With Dave training program already includes a personalized nutrition plan, a training app with your full solo-day program, and direct trainer access between sessions. If that's what you're after, book a free consultation instead.
