            Are vegans actually allowed to eat fish? And where do vegans get vitamins and nutrients like iron and B12? Most vegans have already had to answer these questions in droves. A clear indication for the fact that this nourishing way is still too large a mystery for most people. Thereby the vegan nutrition should be long a more common topic, particularly since 2.6 million humans - thus approximately 3.2% of the world population - already vegan and approximately 3.6 million (4,4%) vegetarian nourish themselves.
Whether you want to follow a vegan diet yourself and pass on your knowledge to others, or just want to take the training out of self-interest - Flexyfit is the right place for you! In collaboration with micronutrient coaches & nutrition and personal trainers, we have created a training that addresses all aspects of vegan nutrition.
In the vegan nutrition trainer training, you will get to the bottom of the evolution of human digestion and deal with the basic forms of nutrition as well as special vegan diets. What role do micro- and macronutrients play and how can you integrate them into your diet even as a vegan?
There are different types of nutrition in the vegan diet. The different types of plant-based diets differ significantly and therefore have different effects on the human body. As a vegan nutrition trainer, you build on this knowledge to provide extensive knowledge to clients.
Athletic performance and nutrition are closely related. Athletes not only need more energy, but also more minerals, vitamins and trace elements. We teach you how these can be sufficiently supplied in a vegan diet.
Which diets are sustainable or ethical is also a topic of this training. A professional nutrition trainer should have a differentiated and multi-layered view of these topics and not pass on black and white thinking about forms of nutrition to his clients.
Our certificates are valid worldwide and are issued in different variants. Upon request, you will receive our certificate in several languages (DE, EN, ES), with country-specific information as well as with and without imprinted grades.
All these variants are available for free download on your online campus for a lifetime. In addition, depending on the learning package you have purchased, you will receive a certificate of your choice, issued on high-quality special paper with embossed printing.
The following certificates (in several languages DE, EN, ES) will be awarded:

                                                                In this subject, you will learn about the complex physiological processes that occur after food intake and the anatomical structure of our gastrointestinal tract.
The digestive tract is a complex mechanism that starts after food intake. Digestion begins in the mouth, where food is digested through chewing and mixing with saliva. The next step is the utilization of food in the stomach, where it is further broken down and mixed with gastric juice. Then, the food enters the small intestine, where most of the digestion and absorption take place. Digestion is finally completed in the large intestine, where the food is processed into stool.
The different areas of the digestive tract are introduced and explained in terms of how it functions. Before that, the structure and function of the biological membrane are explained. The biological membrane is a protective barrier that exists around each cell and prevents foreign substances from entering the cell. The membrane consists of a lipid bilayer surrounded by proteins. These proteins are responsible for regulating the influx of nutrients into the cell. Digestion is influenced by many factors, including the type of food, the amount of food, the time of day, and the overall health condition of the body.
This is a crucial subject for the nutritionist training program.
 
                                                                 
                                                                The macronutrient groups of proteins, carbohydrates, and fats are examined here from a chemical perspective.
The structure and function are discussed in detail, as well as the path of food from gastrointestinal digestion to the cell.
You gain insight into the chemical structure of a macronutrient and how complex molecules are constructed.
The function and physiology are discussed, as well as the detailed process of gastrointestinal digestion. You learn how the broken-down molecular parts are transported in the body and ultimately reach the cell.
The energy generation for each macronutrient is discussed in detail, including how the important energy carrier ATP is ultimately formed.
 
                                                                In the Herbalism course, herbs and spices are discussed from A to Z.
You learn how to distinguish the different plants by their appearance and which ingredients can have a pharmacological effect. Practical application is also discussed, including recipes that are discussed and cooked.
The healing effects of herbs and spices are also discussed in the course. You will learn which herbs have influenced human nutrition for millennia and what cultural history has shaped the use of herbs. Herb gathering is examined closely, including potential mistakes.
You receive a comprehensive overview of the various herbs and spices and how to distinguish them. The use of plant parts in specific dishes and recipes is discussed, as well as their potential health benefits.
Finally, recipes are discussed and a selection is cooked.
 
                                                                The quality of the food we consume is crucial for our health. 
In the course of Food Science in the Nutrition Trainer Training, we delve into the effects of food on the human body. 
Food is categorized into various groups based on their origin. Food categories of animal origin include meat and meat products, dairy and dairy products, eggs, fish, and seafood. Plant-based foods are classified into grains and pseudocereals, legumes, fruits & vegetables, nuts, seeds, and sprouts. We delve deeper into these groups to provide you with more insight into the foods you consume. 
Furthermore, we explore the various quality differences and how cultivation and breeding can influence food products. Additionally, we break down the nutrients contained in different foods and the processing steps that lead to the final product.

                                                                When it comes to vegan nutrition, ethics play a significant role. Ethics involves contemplating moral and philosophical questions, primarily concerning whether a certain action is right or wrong. For many vegans, it is a moral responsibility to avoid consuming animal products and adopt a plant-based diet. They aim not only to eat healthier but also to eat fairly and compassionately.
Whether a dietary choice is sustainable or ethically justifiable also depends on the consumer behavior, namely, the products and quality consumed.
Ethics is multifaceted. It encompasses not only the product itself but also the individual production processes, logistics, and the living beings associated with them. Therefore, topics such as working conditions in agriculture, the use of worker bees in monocultures, the involvement of animals in agriculture, as well as issues like sustainability, ecosystems, and regenerative agriculture are addressed.
 
                                                                 
                                                                A balanced, nutritious, and organic plant-based diet can also lead to deficiencies. This subject covers both macronutrients and micronutrients, which are considered critical substances and may need to be supplemented with nutritional supplements in a vegan diet.
The macronutrients include the main nutrients protein, carbohydrates, and fats. These nutrients are needed in different ratios and have different functions. Micronutrients include vitamins, minerals, trace elements, and secondary plant compounds. These nutrients are needed in smaller quantities but also have important functions in our body.
Which vegan foods contain sufficient amounts of macronutrients (protein, fat, and carbohydrates) from which the body can derive energy? The same question is addressed regarding micronutrients that support the body in vital biochemical processes.
 
                                                                The vegan diet has gained increasing popularity in recent years. Many people opt for a fully vegan diet for health, environmental, or ethical reasons. Transitioning to a fully vegan diet offers individuals a range of health benefits. However, once the decision is made to abstain from animal products, a thorough understanding of plant-based foods and supplements is essential. It is crucial to determine in advance which foods and meals are necessary to provide all essential nutrients to ensure that the body remains in balance. There are many different types of vegan diets, known by various names. This course delves into different types, such as raw food diets and vegan ketogenic diets. Furthermore, the potential problems that may arise with a vegan diet are addressed. One of the main topics is anti-nutrients, which are present in some plant-based foods and can lead to intolerances, nutrient deficiencies, and diseases if consumed in large quantities. Many foods need to be cooked or fermented before consumption to make them digestible. There is also a risk of excessive fructose intake when consuming large amounts of fruit and sweets, as this can affect insulin levels. The important topic of blood analyses, which can uncover deficiencies or deficiencies in specific vitamins or minerals, is also covered.
 
                                                                Proper nutrition is a crucial factor for athletic performance, leading to increased energy, well-being, and a heightened desire to train. For vegan athletes, paying attention to their diet is particularly important as certain nutrients such as protein and specific vitamins and minerals cannot be obtained in sufficient amounts from plant-based foods alone. A vegan nutrition trainer can assist in ensuring the adequate intake of nutrients and develop the optimal diet to achieve desired athletic performance. For successful training, sufficient intake of various vitamins and minerals is necessary, and this is the focus of this course. The topic of Weight Loss with a Vegan Diet is also addressed.

There are a variety of funding options for training courses at the Flexyfit Sports Academy. State-specific and EU funding as well as tax-related options form the basis for this.
However, we would like to point out that the respective funding body is solely responsible for deciding on the allocation or amount of funding.
We will be happy to help you find a suitable funding body and compile all the course information you need for a funding application. You must submit the application itself to the funding bodies.
Depending on the funding institution, the training costs are either paid directly after the funding application has been confirmed (e.g. AMS) or reimbursed in full or in part after successful completion of the training (e.g. waff). Please contact the funding institutions yourself to find out how the funding works.
Yes, the majority of our courses are suitable for educational leave.
If you want to continue your education without terminating your employment, you can arrange educational leave with your employer. This means that you will be released from work for the duration of your training.
Plan your educational leave with us now! We will be happy to clarify your individual training requirements with you in a personal, non-binding consultation .
You can take your educational leave for a maximum of 1 year within 4 years - there are 3 options:
It is important that your employer agrees to you taking educational leave. You must provide evidence of the training plans issued by us to the extent of 20 hours per week in the case of full-time educational leave, or at least 10 hours in the case of part-time educational leave.
You must regularly provide evidence of the progress of your training. For example, in the form of examinations or confirmation of attendance, which you will receive from us.
Writing nutrition plans for nutrition trainers is also not allowed in the context of self-employment. Knowledge transfer in the form of teaching activities (e.g.: in the context of lectures, workshops, seminars, etc.) is as such excluded from the scope of application of the Trade Regulation Act according to § 2 GewO, i.e. no trade license is required for this. Nutritional training is permitted if it does not encroach upon the area of nutritional counseling (§ 119 Abs.1 GewO).
In Germany, the terms nutrition trainer and nutritionist are the same, but here a distinction is made between them and the medical profession of dietician. With the nutrition trainer training in Germany, one may supervise healthy people in a change of diet, or also advise people who want to fundamentally improve their diet.
As a nutrition trainer, you can become self-employed and either impart your knowledge on the subject of nutrition directly to customers or work with groups in lectures, workshops and seminars.
In a permanent position, you work, for example, in fitness and wellness hotels as a contact person for all questions regarding healthy and balanced nutrition.
On our platform Sportkarriere we always list job advertisements of fitness studios. There you can apply directly for jobs as a fitness trainer, branch manager, instructor or studio employee.

                                                                    The first part of training theory teaches the basics of training, such as training principles, principles of training design, training methods and the factors of athletic performance. 
As performance, performance diagnostics, training and competition are closely interrelated, they are also taught accordingly in the course.
In the second part of training theory, training is defined and evaluated as a complex action process and in connection with planning, execution and evaluation.
An important part of training theory is still the design of training plans, which is taught in practice with examples of the possibilities of designing a training plan.
In order to delve even deeper into training science, we have worked with top international speakers such as Prof. em. Dr. phil. Dr. med. Dr. h.c. Jürgen Weineck, we have also developed a video workshop on the subject of altitude training.

                                                                    In this subject, you will learn about the complex physiological processes that occur after food intake and the anatomical structure of our gastrointestinal tract.
The digestive tract is a complex mechanism that starts after food intake. Digestion begins in the mouth, where food is digested through chewing and mixing with saliva. The next step is the utilization of food in the stomach, where it is further broken down and mixed with gastric juice. Then, the food enters the small intestine, where most of the digestion and absorption take place. Digestion is finally completed in the large intestine, where the food is processed into stool.
The different areas of the digestive tract are introduced and explained in terms of how it functions. Before that, the structure and function of the biological membrane are explained. The biological membrane is a protective barrier that exists around each cell and prevents foreign substances from entering the cell. The membrane consists of a lipid bilayer surrounded by proteins. These proteins are responsible for regulating the influx of nutrients into the cell. Digestion is influenced by many factors, including the type of food, the amount of food, the time of day, and the overall health condition of the body.
This is a crucial subject for the nutritionist training program.
 
                                                                     
                                                                    The macronutrient groups of proteins, carbohydrates, and fats are examined here from a chemical perspective.
The structure and function are discussed in detail, as well as the path of food from gastrointestinal digestion to the cell.
You gain insight into the chemical structure of a macronutrient and how complex molecules are constructed.
The function and physiology are discussed, as well as the detailed process of gastrointestinal digestion. You learn how the broken-down molecular parts are transported in the body and ultimately reach the cell.
The energy generation for each macronutrient is discussed in detail, including how the important energy carrier ATP is ultimately formed.
 
                                                                    In the Herbalism course, herbs and spices are discussed from A to Z.
You learn how to distinguish the different plants by their appearance and which ingredients can have a pharmacological effect. Practical application is also discussed, including recipes that are discussed and cooked.
The healing effects of herbs and spices are also discussed in the course. You will learn which herbs have influenced human nutrition for millennia and what cultural history has shaped the use of herbs. Herb gathering is examined closely, including potential mistakes.
You receive a comprehensive overview of the various herbs and spices and how to distinguish them. The use of plant parts in specific dishes and recipes is discussed, as well as their potential health benefits.
Finally, recipes are discussed and a selection is cooked.
 
                                                                    The quality of the food we consume is crucial for our health. 
In the course of Food Science in the Nutrition Trainer Training, we delve into the effects of food on the human body. 
Food is categorized into various groups based on their origin. Food categories of animal origin include meat and meat products, dairy and dairy products, eggs, fish, and seafood. Plant-based foods are classified into grains and pseudocereals, legumes, fruits & vegetables, nuts, seeds, and sprouts. We delve deeper into these groups to provide you with more insight into the foods you consume. 
Furthermore, we explore the various quality differences and how cultivation and breeding can influence food products. Additionally, we break down the nutrients contained in different foods and the processing steps that lead to the final product.

                                                                    When it comes to vegan nutrition, ethics play a significant role. Ethics involves contemplating moral and philosophical questions, primarily concerning whether a certain action is right or wrong. For many vegans, it is a moral responsibility to avoid consuming animal products and adopt a plant-based diet. They aim not only to eat healthier but also to eat fairly and compassionately.
Whether a dietary choice is sustainable or ethically justifiable also depends on the consumer behavior, namely, the products and quality consumed.
Ethics is multifaceted. It encompasses not only the product itself but also the individual production processes, logistics, and the living beings associated with them. Therefore, topics such as working conditions in agriculture, the use of worker bees in monocultures, the involvement of animals in agriculture, as well as issues like sustainability, ecosystems, and regenerative agriculture are addressed.
 
                                                                     
                                                                    A balanced, nutritious, and organic plant-based diet can also lead to deficiencies. This subject covers both macronutrients and micronutrients, which are considered critical substances and may need to be supplemented with nutritional supplements in a vegan diet.
The macronutrients include the main nutrients protein, carbohydrates, and fats. These nutrients are needed in different ratios and have different functions. Micronutrients include vitamins, minerals, trace elements, and secondary plant compounds. These nutrients are needed in smaller quantities but also have important functions in our body.
Which vegan foods contain sufficient amounts of macronutrients (protein, fat, and carbohydrates) from which the body can derive energy? The same question is addressed regarding micronutrients that support the body in vital biochemical processes.
 
                                                                    The vegan diet has gained increasing popularity in recent years. Many people opt for a fully vegan diet for health, environmental, or ethical reasons. Transitioning to a fully vegan diet offers individuals a range of health benefits. However, once the decision is made to abstain from animal products, a thorough understanding of plant-based foods and supplements is essential. It is crucial to determine in advance which foods and meals are necessary to provide all essential nutrients to ensure that the body remains in balance. There are many different types of vegan diets, known by various names. This course delves into different types, such as raw food diets and vegan ketogenic diets. Furthermore, the potential problems that may arise with a vegan diet are addressed. One of the main topics is anti-nutrients, which are present in some plant-based foods and can lead to intolerances, nutrient deficiencies, and diseases if consumed in large quantities. Many foods need to be cooked or fermented before consumption to make them digestible. There is also a risk of excessive fructose intake when consuming large amounts of fruit and sweets, as this can affect insulin levels. The important topic of blood analyses, which can uncover deficiencies or deficiencies in specific vitamins or minerals, is also covered.
 
                                                                    Proper nutrition is a crucial factor for athletic performance, leading to increased energy, well-being, and a heightened desire to train. For vegan athletes, paying attention to their diet is particularly important as certain nutrients such as protein and specific vitamins and minerals cannot be obtained in sufficient amounts from plant-based foods alone. A vegan nutrition trainer can assist in ensuring the adequate intake of nutrients and develop the optimal diet to achieve desired athletic performance. For successful training, sufficient intake of various vitamins and minerals is necessary, and this is the focus of this course. The topic of Weight Loss with a Vegan Diet is also addressed.

There are a variety of funding options for training courses at the Flexyfit Sports Academy. State-specific and EU funding as well as tax-related options form the basis for this.
However, we would like to point out that the respective funding body is solely responsible for deciding on the allocation or amount of funding.
We will be happy to help you find a suitable funding body and compile all the course information you need for a funding application. You must submit the application itself to the funding bodies.
Depending on the funding institution, the training costs are either paid directly after the funding application has been confirmed (e.g. AMS) or reimbursed in full or in part after successful completion of the training (e.g. waff). Please contact the funding institutions yourself to find out how the funding works.
Yes, the majority of our courses are suitable for educational leave.
If you want to continue your education without terminating your employment, you can arrange educational leave with your employer. This means that you will be released from work for the duration of your training.
Plan your educational leave with us now! We will be happy to clarify your individual training requirements with you in a personal, non-binding consultation .
You can take your educational leave for a maximum of 1 year within 4 years - there are 3 options:
It is important that your employer agrees to you taking educational leave. You must provide evidence of the training plans issued by us to the extent of 20 hours per week in the case of full-time educational leave, or at least 10 hours in the case of part-time educational leave.
You must regularly provide evidence of the progress of your training. For example, in the form of examinations or confirmation of attendance, which you will receive from us.
Writing nutrition plans for nutrition trainers is also not allowed in the context of self-employment. Knowledge transfer in the form of teaching activities (e.g.: in the context of lectures, workshops, seminars, etc.) is as such excluded from the scope of application of the Trade Regulation Act according to § 2 GewO, i.e. no trade license is required for this. Nutritional training is permitted if it does not encroach upon the area of nutritional counseling (§ 119 Abs.1 GewO).
In Germany, the terms nutrition trainer and nutritionist are the same, but here a distinction is made between them and the medical profession of dietician. With the nutrition trainer training in Germany, one may supervise healthy people in a change of diet, or also advise people who want to fundamentally improve their diet.
As a nutrition trainer, you can become self-employed and either impart your knowledge on the subject of nutrition directly to customers or work with groups in lectures, workshops and seminars.
In a permanent position, you work, for example, in fitness and wellness hotels as a contact person for all questions regarding healthy and balanced nutrition.
On our platform Sportkarriere we always list job advertisements of fitness studios. There you can apply directly for jobs as a fitness trainer, branch manager, instructor or studio employee.

The best thing that could have happened to me is this academy. Access to participants is excellent. All employees are very competent, very professional and very friendly. A person can learn so much that it is indescribably good. I would recommend it to everyone. When I arrived in Austria I was looking for something like this and luckily I found this academy and signed up for the course without hesitation. Everything we get in return is worth 100 times more than what we pay. Indescribable experience, indescribable people, once again and 1000 times I say: Thank you for everything, thank you for this indescribable experience. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU

I was able to learn a lot of new things as part of my training at the Flexyfit Academy and was able to take on a new, demanding challenge with my chosen course. The structure of the training courses is very understandable and clear, so that you can master the distance learning course on your own without any problems. If there were any questions, ambiguities or isolated problems, the Academy team was always quick to help and we could always find a common solution. Here and there I would have liked a little more practical relevance. Nevertheless, I always felt very comfortable, had great speakers and with my degree as a qualified medical sports coach, many new doors are now open to me :)
