Nutrition at Virtus
Fuel the training. Keep the life.
Food, sleep and recovery coached the same way we coach lifting: from where you are, one clear change at a time. A one-off consult with a coach, Fuel inside the Virtus app for every member, and a free guide if you want to start on your own.
Book your Free IntroNutrition & Lifestyle consult
An hour on the things that decide whether training works.
One session, one coach, your actual life. You leave with a short written plan, and your coach follows it up in your next Sessions rather than leaving you to it.
- Where you are now: training, food, sleep, stress and what a normal week actually looks like
- The one or two changes worth making first, and why those before anything else
- Protein, meals and timing around your Sessions, in plain language
- Recovery and sleep, because they decide whether the training lands
- A written plan you can follow, and a coach who checks how it went

Fuel, inside My Virtus
Nutrition every member already has.
Fuel is the nutrition side of the Virtus app. It starts with habits, not numbers, and it grows with you.
Habit-first by default
Five daily behaviours, no counting: protein every meal, veg or fruit twice, hit your water, one liquid calorie at most, planned snacks only.
Numbers when they help
Calories and protein, or the full macro set, switch on when you and your coach decide they will move you forward. Not before.
Meals, recipes and shopping
Log what you ate, build a week of meals, turn it into a shopping list and see your weekly insight without spreadsheets.
Juniors stay habit-first
Under-18s never see calorie targets or weigh-ins in Fuel. The app enforces it, not just the coach.
Start on your own
The free guide.
The Nutrition Guide for Athletes and Busy Humans covers fuelling for performance when life does not slow down for you. Enter a name and email and it is yours.

Coaches, not dietitians.
We coach food the way we coach training: habits, protein, meals around Sessions, sleep and recovery. We do not diagnose or treat. A medical condition, disordered eating, pregnancy or anything that needs a clinical plan goes to your GP or an Accredited Practising Dietitian, and we will say so rather than guess.

The honest answers
What people ask about nutrition at Virtus.
Cost, who it is for and what happens after.
Do I need to be a member to book a consult?
No. Members book it in My Virtus. If you are not a member, book a Free Intro and say nutrition is the thing you want help with, or send an enquiry and a coach will call you to set it up.
Will I be told to count calories?
Not by default. Fuel starts with five daily habits and no counting. Calories and protein, or the full macro set, switch on only when you and your coach agree they will help. Juniors never see them.
What does it cost?
The Nutrition & Lifestyle consult is $130 once, the same rate as a private coaching hour. Fuel is included in every membership. The guide is free.
Is this a diet?
No. Nobody here sells a meal plan you cannot keep. The consult finds the one or two changes worth making first, writes them down, and your coach checks how they went.
