Hello! My name is Kamran Dehghan. I’m a registered dietitian nutritionist and certified personal trainer, with college degrees both in nutrition and exercise science. I earned a Bachelor of Science in nutrition and dietetics, magna cum laude, from Queens College, a top City University of New York college, and an Associate of Art in exercise science from Montgomery College in Maryland. As a part of the dietetic internship requirement, I completed 1200 hours of supervised nutrition practice, including 600 hours in medical nutrition therapy with a concentration in weight management at the University of Massachusetts Medical Center, and another 600 hours in community nutrition and nutrition management at Sodexo Inc. and Bloomberg L.P. in New York City.
I have been a certified personal trainer with the American Council in Exercise (ACE) since 2012. As a personal trainer and nutritionist, I employ a holistic approach to fitness and wellness. In the personal training sphere, I specialize in injury prevention, post-rehab training, and functional training (improving basic physical function). I train clients with a variety of needs and goals and bring my expertise in these areas to ensure that my clients are training safely, effectively, and efficiently. My nutrition and dietetic work are focused on medical nutrition therapy, weight management, health, and sports nutrition. I custom-make a nutrition plan with an exercise plan to ensure that my clients get the best results.
I have trained clients from different age groups with different goals and physical conditions such as clients with diabetes, hip and knee replacement, cancer, lower back pain, spinal fusion, and pregnancy, as well as many healthy clients preparing for special events such as weddings and entering law enforcement.
Since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, I have trained most of my clients virtually. My clients have reported high levels of satisfaction and many now prefer it over in-person training. Virtual training is highly effective, time-efficient, and convenient, and many of my clients have achieved their fitness and nutrition goals more effectively than ever.
