How to make a career out of Nutrition and Fitness?

I would like to make more of a career out of Nutrition and Fitness, but am unsure of a good path. I would like formal training/certification, but not necessarily a 4-year degree since I’m in my late 20s and work full time now.

If I become a nutritionist, I don’t focus as much on fitness. If I become a personal trainer/instructor, I don’t get the training in proper diet. Any suggestions on what career or certification would be a good mix of nutrition and fitness?

    As far as I know, neither Nutritionist nor personal trainer are protected terms, so all you need to do is make up business cards and you are in business.

    However to be at the top of the heap, becoming a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist should be your ultimate goal.

    I’m a little offended by this. Why are you calling out hippies? I’m a hippie and I love technology. I use online video all the time. Furthermore, my almost 60y/o hippie mother loves technology and online video. My old hippie bosses were the same way. I don’t appreciate the stereotype that hippies are all anti-technology, anti-growth, anti-responsibity and stupid stoners. I don’t smoke pot or do drugs and I have a full time job in a corporate office doing educated work at a promoted level. I keep up on technology and not only understand its importance in my values but celebrate it. Technology is amazing and has brought us all so close to each other, albeit mostly to watch videos of cats, but then again, that just means we’re sharing laughter without regard for language or country or religion (see? hippie) and what better thing could a self-respecting hippie want?
