Morgan made sure I was fueled properly leading up to the competition and at the competition. We discussed weekly about eating enough, food timing, confidence, and positive thoughts during my training.

I think nutrition is paramount to living your most powerful, happiest and most authentic life. I’m a career Firefighter/EMT and volunteer mountain rescue rock climber/rope rescue worker. It’s essential that I can accomplish the tasks necessary to help those in the mountains and to serve those in my community. Black Iron Nutrition has not only helped improve my recovery, strength, and performance but, has helped me in preforming my best lifesaving work.

I’ve worked with other nutrition coaches and programs, and I’ve never felt the support like I do with BIN and Morgan. I’ve struggled with my relationship with food for years, especially after I cut weight for a weightlifting meet.

I made impressive improvements this year, I’m not nearly as tired as I used to be, I’m sleeping better at night, my workouts have improved, body composition has improved and that’s because she has me eating as much as possible for the goal of the moment. Like when I was doing a cut I didn’t have to drop calories so much that I felt like crap.

I’m really proud of the work Morgan and I did together. I was initially apprehensive about getting a nutrition coach because I’m a Type 1 Diabetic, and it felt like it might be an extra burden for a coach. During the initial intake, I distinctly remember Morgan saying, “I’m really excited to take on this challenge and learn about how I can help.” Not going to lie, it made me a little emotional to have someone view it that way.
