Your need a coach who’s been where you are.
Not someone who read about your world in a textbook. Someone who lived it, and built a nutrition practice around the lessons that only come from serving.
Lead from the front
"Lead from the front." That principle stuck with me from my time in the Marine Corps, and it's how I run my practice as a registered dietitian. I practice what I preach — period.
My lifestyle is extremely active. From running ultra-marathons and bow hunting for deer and elk to catching waves and charging powder in the mountains, I take my fitness and health seriously. Not because it looks good on a website, because your coach should be living proof that the system works.
I'm Erik Grohmann, M.S., R.D. After 4 years serving in the Marines, I transitioned into nutrition because I saw the gap firsthand. The plans available to operators and first responders didn't account for your reality, and you were paying the price for it.
That's why your plan isn't built from a textbook. It's built from experience, the kind you only get when you've operated under the same constraints you're dealing with right now.
Your life doesn’t fit a standard nutrition plan. Here’s why that matters.
Standard plans assume you eat at the same time every day. You might be on a 12-hour shift, a 48-hour rotation, or a field exercise with zero control over when you eat. Your plan has to work around that, not pretend it doesn't exist.
Rucking 12 miles with 60 pounds on your back isn't the same as a gym session. Neither is running into a structure fire or working a double on patrol. Your fuelling strategy needs to match the intensity and unpredictability of what you actually do.
When your performance affects the safety of yourself and the people around you, guesswork isn't an option. You need a plan backed by someone who understands the stakes, not a generic macro calculator.

What you’re probably wondering
No. If you have a demanding, unpredictable schedule and need a nutrition plan that works around your life rather than against it, you’re in the right place. That said, this practice was built specifically for people who operate under pressure — and every plan reflects that.
Your plan is built around your actual schedule, your training demands, and your real-world constraints. It’s not a template with your name on it. You get a plan written for your life — and a coach who adjusts it as your situation changes.
That’s exactly why this exists. Your plan is designed to flex with shift changes, deployments, rotations, and unpredictable days. When your schedule shifts, your plan shifts with it — that’s what the ongoing coaching relationship is for.
Most nutrition plans fail because they weren’t built for your world. If your last coach didn’t account for 12-hour shifts, limited food access, or training demands that change week to week — that’s a design problem, not a you problem. Your plan here starts with your reality.
