Iron Legion’s Focus on Nutrition
We understand that you can’t produce results if you’re running on an empty tank. So how do you know how and when and what to eat? We can work with you to create a tailor-made diet plan that complements your fitness regimen so you can achieve your goals. Have a body fat percentage goal you want to meet? Want to smash your clean-and-jerk personal record? Want to sculpt your obliques or run longer distances? It all starts with what you eat.
No matter what fitness journey you are interested in – CrossFit, tactical, pre-natal, weightlifting — our programs all have one thing in common: they focus on clean, intentional nutrition to reach optimal peak performance. Our nutrition plans are completely customizable and our certified nutritionists evaluate all parts of your body and mind when creating plans for our members. We want you to succeed and we are committed to you every step of the way.

Meet Our Nutritionist
Nutrition. It’s a word used so often and yet so many struggle to understand. I have always had a passion for knowing how what I eat will affect me physically but learned over the years the direct affect it can have mentally and emotionally. And not just because of what you are consuming but the psychology behind how and what to eat. There is soooo much info on nutrition and what to eat, what not to eat, how much, it’s never ending.
The number one thing I try to teach people when I talk about nutrition is it should be sustainable and sustainability requires both plus and minus. Which means you can have the piece of cake and get fit too. It’s all about balancing your food quantity and quality in the right amounts. I live by the 80/20 rule. Following the simple saying: eat real foods, not to much, mostly plants. But enjoy the cookie with your toddler, have the beer when celebrating with your friend, and definitely get seconds at thanksgiving.
Having a healthy relationship with food by enjoying the guilty pleasures in life occasionally, and paying attention to your servings and number of veggies the rest of the time is what makes your nutrition a lifestyle and not a diet. And it works.
“Decide on your “WHY”. This should be one that is very strong and very specific. This can help keep your focus on you and what is a manageable, achievable and a healthy goal. Reminding yourself of your why and accepting YOUR journey as the right one, can help to stay on track and keep moving in a forward direction.”
