In the first episode of series two, I speak to Dr Gary Mendoza.
We discuss:
Gary’s background is in personal training, moving on to training trainers and developing a successful nutrition and weight management course. This course formed the basis of his doctoral research, earning a PhD in nutrition, specialising in a multi-dimensional treatment for overweight and obese males. A big part of this research looked at the psychology of change. Gary has since undertaken further training in Motivational Interviewing (MI).
Gary’s other area of expertise is sports nutrition. He was programme leader for sports nutrition and advanced sports nutrition at Massey University in New Zealand and trained with Sports Dietitians Australia (SDA). Gary lectures in nutrition for sport and exercise at Bath Spa and Cardiff Metropolitan Universities and is an Academic Associate member of the SENr. He is director of Stages of Change Ltd and delivers the Behaviour Change Workshop; this workshop teaches personal trainers sound behaviour change principles.
