My daughter wrestles and needed assistance with weight regulation as well as meal choices for high impact practices and for recovery. Derek was amazing. He assisted her in creating meal plans from foods she likes and explained the scientific rationale for her choices so she could formulate specific meals on her own to achieve her goals. He is very knowledgeable and tesponded very quickly to any questions we had.

I started working with Derek back in 2022, and I can honestly say he changed the game for me. Under his guidance, I lost 30 pounds of fat and built up 10 pounds of solid muscle. But it wasn’t just about body composition—he helped me transform my performance, too.

Since working with Derek, I’ve placed 5th in my age group in a 10K trail race, took 1st (and set a course record!) in a 5K trail race, and landed 2nd AG in another 10K - and I just started focusing on trail racing in August 2024. His nutrition coaching helped fuel those wins, and his strength programming made me stronger and more resilient on the trails.

Even when I take breaks from his services, I always come back when I notice my nutrition slipping. He’s incredibly supportive, quick to respond, knowledgeable, and genuinely wants to see his clients succeed. I couldn’t rave more about Derek—if you’re ready to level up, he’s your guy.

Derek was a pleasure to work with, and I highly recommend his services to anyone looking to dial in their nutrition. My goal was to establish a baseline for protein consumption while fine tuning my macros in order to build lean muscle. Derek's roadmap was easy to follow and delivered results quickly. I was able to take these learnings and apply them to my daily eating habits with ease. Derek was very responsive to any questions and invested in my success. A+!

I started working with Derek at the beginning of this year because I was constantly feeling low energy and I realized that I had developed a very bad relationship with food. Im a 30 year old male who loves to play soccer and work out so I was not a “typical” client for Derek - I think most of his clients are high school or college athletes. From the first session, Derek has been extremely helpful. He really listens to your needs, your likes and dislikes, and works with you to make sustainable long term decisions in regards to your nutrition. When I started working with Derek, I was really into “clean eating” and was heavily focusing on aestheticism so I was constantly under eating. Derek helped me get over my fear of “getting fat” and my energy levels and athletic performance have drastically improved since then. Even at 30, I still play relatively competitive soccer and I could see how the change in nutrition translates to better performance on the field. I also have to say that Derek was always very quick to respond to any questions I had regarding nutrition and has had many helpful suggestions as how I can improve my meals. His Instagram also has a ton of great info as well as cool recipes to try out! I wish my parents had invested in a registered dietitian for me when I was younger, looking back I think that was the missing piece that could have given me a career in soccer! In any case, I would highly recommend Derek to any athlete at any level!

Can’t recommend Derek’s services enough! He helped me craft various meal plans to help me gain weight after I started to develop some restrictive habits, and each plan helped me gain great healthy mass and muscle! Not only did I get results, but I also gained more great knowledge about how to properly fuel myself for my workouts. Thanks again, Derek!

Derek is a wonderful nutrition coach and I’ve learned so much from him. He’s super knowledgeable, personable, and willing to answer any of your questions. Whenever I had a question about a meal, or just any general nutrition question, he was always super quick to respond and give me great feedback. As someone who has struggled with an eating disorder, I really appreciated Derek’s approach and emphasis on having a balanced and non-restrictive diet. Even if you don’t struggle with disordered eating, he knows how to set you up for success in your sport. 10/10 would recommend to any athlete!

Derek helped our teen son develop the proper nutrition habits while playing soccer. Derek's plan worked with a teen's schedule and preferences. His program completely changed the way my son ate, and those habits are still in force a year later. With the nutrition plan Derek created, my son avoided injury and had the energy to perform well through an intense season.

Derek is a gem! My son needed to increase his caloric intake in a healthy way in order to gain weight as he prepares to play a D1 sport. He was able to work with his goals safely and efficiently. Derek’s meal ideas were great and easy to incorporate into his daily routine. We definitely recommend FC Sports Nutrition for athletes! Very impressed.
