Become the coach clients trust with their results
Barna Academy teaches you what works with real people: evidence-based nutrition, the psychology of behavior change, anatomy and training, fat loss science and the business side of coaching. It's 13 years of practice and 600+ clients, distilled into 257 lessons.
You skip years of trial and error. And if you compete yourself (bikini, physique, bodybuilding), you'll learn to prepare on your own, peak week included, with no myths and no gear.

It takes beginners through the foundations and gives experienced coaches depth and a system.
You want a solid base and the confidence that your advice is right, from physiology to working with clients.
You have clients, but you're missing depth and a system. You'll raise your results, and your prices with them.
You'll connect nutrition science with how people really behave, and get clients all the way to the result.
Bikini, physique, bodybuilding and combat sports. Peak week, supercompensation and contest dieting without myths.
What's inside
Every lesson is written to be used: the science, what it means for a real client, and what you do with it on Monday.
From behavior and nutrition through anatomy and training to advanced fat loss, hypertrophy and recovery science. With citations.
Each topic comes with how I handle it with my own clients. The situations you'll meet in your first month, and the ones you'll meet in year five.
You check that you understood it, then apply it to yourself or a client right away.
After the final exam and a case study of a real client, which I read personally. It's my own certificate, not a state or accredited qualification.

Questions
Is the certificate accredited?
No. The Barna Academy Certificate is my own certification. It shows you passed the final exam and a case study I reviewed personally. It isn't a state-recognized or accredited qualification, and it doesn't replace any license your country requires.
I'm not a coach. Is it for me?
If you want to understand nutrition and training properly for yourself, you'll get a lot out of it. But it's written for people who work with clients. If you want me to coach you, look at my coaching.
How long does it take?
Most lessons take 10 to 20 minutes. One lesson a day gets you through in under a year, and you keep lifetime access, so there's no deadline.
Is the content specific to one country?
The science is universal. Food examples, prices and business topics are written for an international audience, and where rules differ by country (taxes, business registration, data protection) I tell you what to check locally.
Can I try it first?
Yes. Several lessons are free to read, no account needed. Start with lesson one →
