Enter this coaches edition of the Masterclass. You’ll learn the proven Three Pillars Method that delivers better weight, health, or fitness outcomes – as well as how to structure a profitable nutrition program. Next group starts Sept 13 – register now.
At this point, they feel like they should have a Ph.D. in nutrition with all the hours and time (and money!) they’ve put in.
They’ve done all the diets, read the books, and listened to all the podcasts… yet here they are: struggling to lose weight, feeling like crap in the gym, and losing that day-to-day energy to thrive.
They are frustrated. Why can’t they just put all the pieces together? Shouldn’t they be good at this by now? These are the common challenges I hear from my clients all the time…
There’s so much information out there. Just when you think you understand what to do, a research study comes out proving the opposite (is meat healthy this year or not?). They just want to know what works.
Everything works… but not forever. They saw great results with Paleo, or low-carb, or macros, but then stalled. How many more diets do they have to do to actually get the results they want?
Diets never work in real life. Sure, those perfectly balanced meals work great when you have eight hours of meal prep. But is there anything that is flexible enough to withstand unpredictable schedules, vacations, and eating cake at their kid’s birthday party?
They don’t want to be a slave to the food scale. Ugh!! Does it really have to be this complicated? Weighing and measuring gets exhausting. They would love to find a long-term system without the scale.
Their efforts in the gym just aren’t adding up. They spend all this time working out and it doesn’t seem to be paying off. They want their body to reflect all the hard work they do.
In every single lesson, my eyes where just opened. This was the way I needed to hear the information to be able to teach my clients.
Out of all the things that I've done, it's going to be the system I use for myself. It's not just something to give to clients, but I can also be a representative of the program.
It's takes the best part of all nutrition protocols – Paleo, IF, macros – and makes it refreshingly simple. It's everything you need to know in one spot.
I ended up losing weight at 2300 calories, which is still mind boggling to me. I just feel really empowered that I have the tools to know what I need; it's really freeing.
You're going to get a mindset shift and the permission to not be so dogmatic and rigid. Check your assumptions at the door and let the process work.
It's a game changer. You walk away with your own customized nutrition plan. I feel so much more empowered to know what to feed myself.
Hi, I’m EC (Eva Claire) Synkowski. I’ve worked as a fitness or nutrition coach for over 20 years. I have a Masters in Human Nutrition & Functional Medicine, am a Certified Nutrition Specialist®, and a Certified CrossFit Level 4 Coach (CF-L4).
What’s important to you is that I packed my education and coaching expertise into a proven diet program backed by real science that you experience with me by your side every step of the way.
Sorting out the “BS” from the truth is my trademark in the coaching industry.
I help clients reset eating habits with realistic goals to improve their fitness and health without the stress of “doing it right” or overly restrictive elimination diets.
I also teach coaches how to teach clients nutrition. What are the sustainable and effective ways to create client change?
And my Masterclass is designed as an online course with live coaching; I am there every step of the way so that you get your questions answered.
Help your clients ditch the diet cycle with this proven 10-week video-based course plus a live-nutrition coach program that forever replaces diet fads with a consistent and sustainable way to eat.
She makes it simple and doable.
These are the irrefutable truths in nutrition. You will learn how all diets work from physiological to psychological factors.
This foundational information will provide the framework of the “why” behind the Three Pillars Method™ approach (and really behind the results of ANY diet). Get started on this as soon as you register.
This is how to apply all that theoretical knowledge. We walk through the Three Pillars Method: establishing 1) Quality, 2) Protein, and 3) Calories in your diet. You get the advanced level of the methods that can be used with your clients, as well as the tips for running the program with varying groups of levels and experience.
This stuff just works.
While you go through the Three Pillars Method™ yourself, you’ll also have live weekly calls regarding how to coach the process. Going through the progression yourself is essential to understand your client’s experience as well as provide the “reps” of the client questions that will surface. But in addition, each phase has corresponding coach-specific information regarding client compliance, pitfalls, and program implementation.
Completing the masterclass is a pre-requisite to become a Three Pillars Method™ affiliate to teach the same methods to your own clients.
Half of the program is a video course you watch on your own time according to a weekly schedule. The other half are live calls to discuss coaching-specific issues, as well any Q&A going through the process yourself. To help with questions in real-time, the group coaching occurs via the:
Be it in the App or on a live call, you will get your questions answered. EC personally responds to all questions 3x each week day.
Thank you for being sooooo responsive.
Is my metabolism damaged? What about hormones?
This section contains SO many of the common questions you will receive. Half-truths in the media distract and stall your client's progress. Learn the science behind the claims so you can help them stay on track with what works.
What about timing? What about pre-workout?
Most coaches in this course are working with fitness-minded clients and inevitably they want to know about the post-workout protein shakes, electrolytes, and carb cycling. This section outlines nutrition specifics for performance goals.
When are you going to see results?
How long does it take to lose weight? How long until my back squat goes up? Setting realistic expectations is half the battle with clients. In a word full of quick fixes and false promises, you need to help clients with a mindset shift to reality.
What is the evidence for – and against them?
Many want to do everything but the diet changes that work. Learn about the Recommended Dietary Allowance levels, if you can get them from food, supplement regulation, contamination, and effectiveness all in this module.
This nutrition coach program is a video-based course with enough flexibility regardless of your schedule and timezone.
Keep up with a weekly video schedule. Then ask EC questions at ANY time in a community App and attend live calls (1 hour/week, a playback is made available). It’s a time committment averages to ~2 hours/week.
You go through the process yourself to gain the perspective of your client, while also getting the education on HOW to coach clients.
I’ve quite literally done it all. Paleo, macros, low-carb, intermittent fasting, and yes, even the potato hack diet.
I didn’t understand why there could be so many different diets and rules all with success for … some people. But, where was my “optimal” diet?
So, I dug in. I got a Master’s degree in Nutrition and went on to become a Licensed Dietitian Nutritionist. I wanted an evidence-based, science-backed system approach to what really works. Not the hacks, gimmicks, and social-media-filtered tips and false promises.
This Masterclass is the result. I developed my 10 Principles as the framework to understand physiological and psychological truths (the “why”). And then the Three Pillars Method to put that knowledge into place (the “how”). It’s not a diet; it’s a way develop a diet plan to adhere to
It’s a proven system I’ve used with hundreds of my own clients, and you can use for yours as well (with affiliation). Help them ditch the gimmicks, hacks, and junk science for a sustainable, forever plan.
The next Three Pillars Method™ Masterclass for Coaches begins in January. Be the first to know when doors open.
The intent was to provide enough flexibility regardless of schedule or timezone, while still getting coaching support throughout the program. Much of the course is video based you watch on your own time according to a group schedule. You can ask questions at any time in the Community App, and/or attend live calls for questions (with playbacks available).
For the Fall 2023 group, the live Q&A calls are Tues @2:15P EST and Wed @7:15PM EST. These are largely dedicated to discussing coaching considerations and answering Q&A. Playbacks are made available.
The total video content is 14 hours. This averages to 2 hours a week. You choose how much additional time is spent interacting in the Community app. There is also additional time to prep and track food, which is highly variable from person to person due to experience with weighing and measuring, as well as meal preferences.
Yes. The course uses the Cronometer (Gold membership) for food data collection and analysis. This costs an additional ~$9.99/month (although prices and deals change regularly). You can also choose another app, but we are not responsible for whether necessary features exist. You will also need a digital food scale, measuring cups, and measuring spoons.
This program works for everyone! You and your clients customize your own meal plans based on which foods you eat. Vegetarians and vegans will use plant-based proteins to hit your targets.
Completion of the program makes you eligible to become a Three Pillars Method™ affiliate to replicate the method (including the #800gChallenge® and Lazy Macros®) with your clients. More information about affiliation is here. You cannot use the programs without affiliation.
