Welcome!
Hello! My name is Melody Sayers and I am both a NASM Certified Personal Trainer as well as a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist. I am originally from Los Angeles and have been helping UC students, faculty, and staff achieve their health and wellness goals for the past 6 years. I absolutely love watching my clients' hit personal bests, improve their diet, expand their fitness capabilities, and regain strength after an injury.

Fuel Your Workout – Are you just starting a fitness program or have you been working out consistently and not seeing results? What we eat both before and after a workout can vastly improve our energy levels and can help support our fitness efforts. In this workshop, learn how to properly fuel your body to help you maximize your workouts and achieve your desired results.
Meal Prep 101 – Foods purchased outside of the home are often high in sodium, saturated fat, and added sugar. Not to mention dining out can be costly. In this workshop, learn the basics of meal planning so that you can be an expert at preparing more of your own meals at home. Easy meal and snack recipes will be provided and all cooking levels are welcome!
Nutrition Mythbusters – There is a lot of confusing nutrition information out there and not all of it is accurate. This workshop focuses on debunking the many nutrition myths. Get the truth about carbs, keto, intermittent fasting, supplements and more to learn what is actually healthy!
Mindful Eating – In this workshop we discuss the many factors that affect our eating habits and ways to improve your relationship with food. You will learn the basics of mindful eating and tips for learning how to control stress and/or emotional eating.
