If you’re like I was and know you need a change but are overwhelmed with all the “fitness” advice, Tandem Nutrition is the place for you. Not only did I lose a substantial amount of weight (30 lbs), but I also learned how to eat so I can keep the weight off. That’s the part that was missing from my previous attempts to lose weight. Tandem showed me it wasn’t just a diet, but a way of life. Coach Barnes and Coach g provide advice, accountability, and most importantly a way to get you to the life you want to live. I highly recommend Tandem Nutrition. You won’t regret signing up.

  So many great things to say about the Tandem Team! I had the privilege of working with Jason Barnes as my coach and he was the most helpful, positive, and motivating Coach I could have had. Garrett and Jason often offered words of encouragement and were always there to answer any questions I had. I started my journey with Tandem wanting to be a physique competitor, and over the course of my 11 week prep, the knowledge and information they shared with me was always science-backed, so I had a sense of comfort knowing I was doing the best I could for my body while on a prep. I loved having the support from not only Garrett and Jason, but the whole Tandem community, as multiple people would reach out to me regarding my progress! Another one of my favorite things Tandem Nutrition offers is community events, so you can tell they are invested in making the community a healthier, happier place. I love what you guys are doing, and keep up the great work!

  Daily encouragement every time I open Facebook! I love that you share your heart, passion, and faith consistently. Thank you!

  I worked with Garrett for over a year through multiple fat loss and maintenance phases, and I cannot say enough good things about my experience! He was so flexible and supportive, and was always there to answer my questions, no matter how small or silly they seemed. Not only did I get amazing results, both aesthetic and performance-based, but he really helped me change the way I think about food and dieting. I was still able to enjoy the important things in my life while still losing fat and gaining strength. He kept me accountable, and I felt like he was truly invested in my success, celebrating my wins and supporting me through the not-so-great days. Working with Garrett was an honor and a pleasure, and I would recommend him without any hesitation!

As soon as i started working with Garrett my whole mindset changed on staying motivated / dedicated! i love how he treats you as if you were his main focus! it’s a great feeling to know he’ll check up on you and/or work through ANY question or issue you have! You work as a Team together and he’s not just a coach telling you to do this or that because he says so. i look forward to his replies back on check in days and trust him with my goals. (there’s not many i can say i trust with my fitness / nutrition) He’s super quick in responding too! Any question you have is answered, and he never just has you do something without telling you WHY. He makes sure you’re on the same page, understanding the game plan and why he has you doing something. He really listens to you with what is going on with your body, life, or anything that plays a role in your nutrition / fitness. He factors those types of things into your plan, which makes him even better. I’ve had other nutrition help, and i never felt like i was a priority, more like a number, so the fact that Garrett is by your side along for the ride with you makes you WANT to stick to reaching your goals even more. Nothing but positives from me! He’s awesome!! Never have i had such awesome and CONSISTENT changes like i have.

  I have been working with Coach Jason for a month now and I am beyond happy with my progress thus far!! I still have 12 weeks left of my program and I can’t wait to see the changes at the end of this! Tandem Nutrition takes the hard work out of eating healthy by providing you all the tools you need to be successful, you just have to be willing to make the changes to see results! Positive, encouraging, and super knowledgeable are just a few of the words I’d use to describe Jason and the Tandem team!

I was very hesitant about doing this at first because well it was expensive and I wasnt really sure if it would be worth it or not. I wasnt sure if I should go ahead and purchase for my maintenance phase or wait until my next cut. I went ahead last week and bought 6 months worth of one on one coaching how great my coach Garrett Serd is! He got into contact with me the same day I bought my one on one. He took the time to make sure that him and I were completely on the same page as far as what my goals were. He even looked back at my weigh ins towards the end of my cut and helped me decide to end my cut at 11 weeks. He has answered every small question I have had and has made me feel like I am actually in control of this process. He has taken every bit of guess work out for me and I couldn't be more thankful. I am so glad that I decided to move forward with this process and cant wait to see what comes next.

  I have been working with Garret for a couple months now as I’ve been cutting down for photoshoots and I could not speak more highly of him. As a fitness model and nutrition coach myself , you could say I’m pretty picky about who I’d listen to for my own nutrition guidance, but I couldn’t have made a better choice than Garret! He is truly one of the best in the industry and I’d recommend him to anyone and everyone with a goal!

  I cannot say enough positive things about my experience in working with Garrett. He is very knowledgeable and I can guarantee he wants you to meet your goal just as much as you do! He is also the most understanding and motivating guy I know. He will be with you every step of the way! I can’t tell you how many times I messaged him with random questions pertaining to my diet and he was quick to respond with everything I needed to know plus more. I will forever be grateful for the impact he has made in my life on the way I view food and take care of my body! Knowledge is power and he certainly taught me a ton!!

  excellent information and advice on nutrition, training, loss of body fat. Great people, amazing team! ??

  hey everyone! Garrett is the best health coach I've ever encountered. he actually cares about you and your goals. he's not just someone that throws facts at you that you don't understand then doesn't help you at all. He helps and a lot. I've lost so much weight under his guidance and on top of that I've gained A LOT of muscle so most of weight loss is pure fat! I was dieting long before I met him I did lose 12 lbs however I was not happy! Dieting sucks. now I don't feel like I'm dieting but rather feel GREAT and losing body fat is a plus while feeling good! 10000000000000% recommended!!

I've appreciated Garrett's common-sense approach to nutrition and goal-setting. He's provided encouragement and insight that has helped me make reasonable, behavioral changes I can maintain for life. I know that his help has been key to the success I've had so far and continue to work toward.

  I've been involved in some sort of fitness most of my life. As I got into my 40s I slacked off. Believe me that is not the age to do it! In the past 2 years I've really applied myself to training for a better physique. With all of the hours in the gym mounting up, I still wasn't seeing the result that I wanted. Garrett taught me that I can't out-train a bad diet. Many of the principles he teaches I "sort of knew." But it has been the fine points that have helped me the most. I eat foods I love because Garrett based my plan around those foods, and I feel great. I'm still not at my goal, but I know with Garretts help I will be!! One of the best decisions for my health I've ever made!

I've tried everything....starving myself, going to the gym daily, low carb, low fat, high protein, etc., etc., etc. I would get so frustrated after trying these "fads" that I would become demotivated within 2 weeks and give up. I got to a point where my clothes didn't fit, I was tired and didn't feel healthy. Finally, I was introduced to Tandem Nutrition and this has been life changing. Garrett taught me the basic concepts of Macros and what good nutrition looks like. He has debunked myths that I have followed for years that were never successful. Finally, I have a nutrition plan that I can follow with normal, everyday food and am now much more knowledgable of what a good diet looks like. Garrett holds you accountable but also recognizes that life can get in the way and is your biggest cheerleader. He is reachable 24/7, always pleasant and supportive. Thank you Garrett for your expertise and support...you have been a blessing to me.

  What a great experience being coach by Coach Garrett! From now on I know who to go to for any fitness needs and the only person I would recommend. I knew something was going to be special about my time with Tandem Nutrition. At the beginning with a phone interview to truly understand my why for dieting and get to know me so a personalized planned could be created specifically for me and consistently providing support. I’ve had multiple coaches in the past but nothing like Coach Garrett. If you are looking to change, lost or just need guidance, look no further then the team at Tandem! With Garrett you aren’t just a client, you are more like family. Also Coach Garrett is by far the ultimate pancake connoisseur I’ve ever met and you are always invited to chow down some pancakes with him and the family at Tandem Nutrition!

  Coach Garret is knowledgeable, responsive and helpful to the individuals in the group

Garrett is a true professional has a complete understanding of macros needed, physical conditioning needed and blood chemistry. He has helped me learn how to approach all three of these key factors to better my life. He is not intrusive but compassionate about his approach. Give him a try if your willing he can help. He has for me and I know others who have experianced the same.

Working with Garrett has been a rewarding experience and a great investment for my health. Learning more about nutrition and having someone hold me accountable was something I needed to help get me in the right direction. He always answered my questions and was very prompt at getting back to me. I have a very busy life that I enjoy, which makes nutrition go out the window at times. Working with Garrett I learned how to look at some foods differently and find alteratives to what I was already doing. It was a great learning experience and I would recommend him to anyone looking to take the next step on their fitness/health journey. Great job Garrett!!

  they are very helpful,knowledgeable and straight forward. I have learned so much here.

  What if I told you, there is a trainer who is breaking the mold of diet and training? What if I told you, you could eat the foods you love and still have a plan to lose fat and keep it off? Then, Tandem Nutrition and Coach g (Garrett Serd) are the answer to your struggles. Don’t be like me, don’t waste your time stalking this man on various social media to see what he’s saying and what others are saying about him (I followed him on IG and FB for nearly two years). Without a doubt I’d recommend coach g to anyone looking for nutrition and training guidance. But you get so much more than just that, he’s a great motivator, he’s always positive, he’s a spiritual and religious guide as well (for those who want it, he’s never pushing anything on anyone), think of coach g as a life coach. It’s a total package, body, soul and mind!! Coach g truly does care about his clients, he’s checked on me more than I have, he has always kept the lines of communication open. I have dealt with other online coaches in the past who barely cared if I even checked in and were too busy with other things. Coach g brings his focus, positivity and dedication to each client. His portfolio of clients is the real testament to his success. His training and nutrition plan approach is amazing and hits all your needs, but I’d recommend you come with questions and that’s where you will see why he’s the best. He will listen to you concerns, he will make changes where and when needed, best of all you will notice how humble he is in his method. He will never push an agenda, he wants you to be happy and have the tools to be successful in attaining your goals. Coach g is truly in tandem with your success and goals. Its not a one size fits all approach at all, yeah there might be similarities in the approach but each one of his clients has their own customized training and nutrition plan, which I love. He will make himself available when you need him, he offers so much of his time and knowledge in pursuit of dispelling the many myths around training and nutrition. Just follow him on IG or FB, it’s a free education on those topics, imagine what you’d get if you hired him as your coach.

Garrett has been such an asset to my life as a friend, coach, and client! He is one of the friendliest guys around that has given 100% of his efforts to his education and clients. He also got me to the leanest I have ever been on the bodybuilding stage and I cannot thank him enough:) He is professional, empathetic, and truly cares about his client's success. He is constantly giving value each and every day. If you are thinking about working with him, at least follow his business. He posts informational posts every single day. Once you see the value that he adds, it will be a no-brainer! He will be the only choice.

  Their information is very practical and beneficial!!!!!!

  When I first spoke to Garrett, I told him I wanted to cut fat but keep my strength. I had tried a couple of cuts before with minimal success and significant strength loss. I have been working with Garrett for about 9 weeks and I'm losing weight and lifting better than I ever have.

  I have thoroughly enjoyed the last 13 weeks working with Garrett via 1:1 coaching. I have learned more about nutrition, balance, and how my body works than in the previous 33 years combined. I fully recommend the Tandem Team, regardless of your goals! I have zero desire for body competitions, but still got 100% focus towards my own goals of weight loss and energy gain. Thanks so much Team!

  Where do I start? This experience with Garret and the Tandem Team has been nothing short of amazing. Their knowledge and expertise towards exercise and nutrition is unmatched! I have personally been working with Garret, and have reached monumental goals that I never thought would be possible! I give him and the Tandem Team a 10/10 and I will continue to work with them in the years to come. They provide great insight on nutrition and other health related subjects on a constant basis. Their goals are directly in line with helping others be the best they can be! Thank you all!

  I started my journey 3 months ago with Tandem Nutrition (working with coach Kasey). In these past 3 months I have learned so much about myself, let alone how to lose fat. I honestly didn’t think I could lose fat and weight on my own. I started this journey at 183 lbs and today I weight in at 168.4. I’m extremely proud of myself for the goals I have accomplished during this time. I am extremely grateful for Tandem Nutrition. Coach Kasey is an amazing person and taught me a lot. Thank you!

  Love this FB page and all the tips and encouragement! Thank you!

  Garrett is a wonderful coach!! He is so knowledgeable. I love the fact that you can be at any stage of your journey and Garrett along with his coaches are there to help you. So encouraging.

  I was introduced to Garrett and Tandem Nutrition through a friend that had great results. Working with Garrett, or Coach g, was the best decision of my life! I had previously struggled to stay consistent with my diet as I fell victim to many so called "fad diets." Coach g helped me realize that I could still enjoy food and be healthy at the same time! I saw great results and lost, and kept off, around 20 pounds during our time together. He truly cares about each one of his clients and Tandem has a great team of dedicated and compassionate individuals. If you are ready to make sustainable life changes look no further than Tandem!

Loving my results that I've seen so far!! The way the nutrition plan is set up makes it easy to track & follow with my busy work schedule, & the workout program is proving to get me closer & closer to my goals!

  I have been working with Garrett since July, following a bikini competition. I was in a really bad place physically and mentally, rebounding badly after my show. When I first started working with Garret, we focused on hitting a specific calorie goal instead of macros. This helped me so much mentally. Garrett took the time to sit down with me and discuss my goals and plans in the NPC. He was 100% supportive and attentive to my goals while also being honest about my need to take a year off from the stage. He is one of the most knowledgeable people I know in this field, and always takes the time to answer my questions and explain his reasoning behind protocols. Garret puts the health of his clients first and truly wants them to succeed. I would recommend Garret to anyone looking to lose weight, get fit, or prep for a competition!

  Working with Coach g and his team is a game changing experience. Not only do you receive knowledgeable advice in regards to nutrition and fitness, but you also receive a support group and true accountability when working with Tandem Nutrition. Garrett truly cares about every person in this group beyond just their health goals, but in their personal life as well. He demonstrates this by recognizing birthdays, checking in with individuals, and the occasional pancake meet up. Tandem Nutrition truly is about doing life alongside each other; together in this health and fitness journey. Thanks Coach g for your willingness to share your experience, and wisdom with this group!

  I am new to Tandem Nutrition and I have found both Jason and Garrett so helpful, knowledgeable, supportive, encouraging and most of all so motivational!! If I have a question, the response time is quick and very informative. The workout program is great, I’m learning new movements which is motivating in the gym. I love all the nutritional posts and live videos. So glad I decided to join. ??

Garrett has been awesome! I wasn't sure what to expect at first, but Garrett helped explain Macros to me and got my nutrition on track. As a long distance runner, I have already improved immensely, by increasing my speed and distance. Next up is a strength program which I am excited to start. Thanks Garrett!!!
