SKILLS
ABOUT JOEY GOCHNOUR
I offer preventative health and optimizing the human body through nutrition and exercise. Having received a full prestigious education in both nutritional sciences and kinesiology, I like to focus on people in a longer term setting before they get to the hospital, because that is where prevention is most effective. It is my passion to help people figure out what a healthy lifestyle can be for them. You didn\'t work your whole life to spend your golden years in the hospital miserable or at a reduced functional capacity. I offer private practice nutrition counseling and consulting, personal training, exercise prescription, teaching, speaking engagements, and sports nutrition education. I have a passion for understanding the science behind nutrition and exercise because it gives individuals the freedom to live heathily for the specific results wanted without following the set rules of a diet or exercise plan that is trendy and worked for your friend. I like to specialize in the why. I have been interested in nutrition and exercise since childhood. Athletic accomplishments (teens) include walk-on at Penn State in swimming in Fall 2004, and was a 2x Academic All-American in USA swimming and 6x letterman in swimming and water polo in high school. As adult, a non-competitive athlete doing strength (heavy) weight training, distance running, gymnastics 4 years total (mid 20s and early 30s), ice skating from scratch since 2019. It is important to continually learn new physical skills throughout the lifetime and challenge ourselves to prevent muscular wasting, coordination loss, mental acuity loss, and to actually enjoy rather than dread physical activity. It also helps me remember how hard it is to learn to be active to connect with clients starting new exercise programs merely to prevent progression of negative health statuses. I weekly meet the Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans 2018. As child, baseball, basketball. Specialties: Health and nutrition education, nutrition and exercise myth busting, exercise education and prescription, personal training. Separating fact from fiction in diet and exercise in popular media. Technical specialist in nutrition and exercise therapies for specific medical goals related to chronic disease states and how exercise and/or diet affects that parameter as well as in body composition manipulation naturally without the use of performance enhancing drugs. Vegan and vegetarian nutrition, weight gain and loss, body composition manipulation, effective exercise and physical activity prescription for client goals.
