Introduction
ATIPIX Corporation, based in Koto-ku, Tokyo, has officially launched the Zone Medical Academy, a next-generation nutrition education program for athletes, scheduled for a July 2025 rollout. This innovative service aims to facilitate systematic learning of nutritional support, enabling athletes to consistently maintain peak performance levels.
What is Zone Medical Academy?
Zone Medical Academy is an e-learning platform built on the principles of molecular nutrition science. Designed for both athletes and their support teams, it integrates learning and behavior change to transform academic knowledge into actionable plans. The primary goal is to enable athletes to harness their full potential at any moment, equipping them with scientifically accurate information to implement in real life.
The academy caters to a diverse audience, including competitive athletes, healthcare professionals, sports coaches, corporate support teams, and educational institutions. All content is crafted to be immediately applicable in their respective fields, ensuring that those supporting athletes can effectively implement what they learn.
Key Features: Action-Oriented Academy
One of the standout features of Zone Medical Academy is its commitment to facilitating not just knowledge acquisition, but also the application of that knowledge. Unlike traditional learning environments, the academy includes personalized action plans within its curriculum to guide participants from education to execution.
Each learner is encouraged to design a unique action plan based on their specific challenges and roles, supported by a self-guidance system rooted in coaching theories. This structure fosters the necessary habits and language required to solidify new behaviors, resulting in a transformative educational experience where actions and environments change.
Curriculum Overview
Zone Medical Academy's curriculum is divided into five phases plus a certification exam, designed to lead participants from understanding to application:
- - Phase 0: Understand the purpose and significance of the academy.
- - Zoom Meetings: Individual discussions to tailor learning objectives and future applications.
- - Phase 1-2: Study the basics and theories of athlete nutrition therapy.
- - Phase 3: Acquire skills in analyzing test data.
- - Phase 4: Develop practical approaches to nutrition.
- - Phase 5: Formulate personal implementation plans leveraging coaching techniques.
- - Certification Exam: Assess practical knowledge to boost confidence for real-world application.
This curriculum ensures that learning does not stop at mere understanding, but focuses on how to effectively integrate knowledge into personal and professional lives.
Service Highlights
