Welcome to Trimarni Coaching and Nutrition, LLC
Marni Sumbal MS, RD, LD/N - A sport nutritionist with a passion for health, fitness and nutrition

As an exercise physiologist, 5x Ironman athlete and 2x Ironman World Championship finisher, I understand the importance of eating for fuel. As a clinical dietitian, lacto-ovo vegetarian, doggy mommy and health conscious individual, I believe it is important to respect the body with a wholesome and balanced diet, along with a daily dose of exercise and a positive "CAN DO" attitude.
I am enthusiastic about living an active and healthful life, all while developing a healthy relationship with food and exercise. As I strive for balance in my personal life, I welcome daily challenges by relying on the powerful process of goal setting and working hard for successful results.
I believe that we all have the ability to overcome obstacles and to reap the rewards of living a consistent healthy lifestyle. I do not feel as if there is a "best" way as to how our society should live life because we are all unique and in our own personal journey. I support a lifestyle that is balanced between a healthy diet and a consistent exercise routine and I believe in challenging the mind and body by embracing change. I believe that we must be committed to proper nutrition and attainable fitness goals in order to reduce risk for disease, perform at an optimal level and to increase the chance of living a quality-filled life.
Here at Trimarni, I am dedicated to helping YOU reach your personal goals. I believe in a step-by-step nutrition and exercise approach to achieving success in both athletic performance/fitness and in the diet. In regard to developing a plan for body composition changes, performance gains and for overall health, I believe that a healthy relationship with food is a fundamental priority and that the daily diet is the foundation on which we reach our goals.
Step-by-step approach to a balanced lifestyle...
1) Optimize daily nutrition for optimal health.
2) Maximize sports nutrition for gains in fitness.
3) Enhance life with quality sleep, stress management, positivity and consistent monitoring of weaknesses and strengths.
When learning how to appreciate food for fuel and for longevity, it is important to understand that "diets don't work" and the body must be respected when training for an athletic event. My goal is to change the way people view, speak about and consume food and re-educate our society as to the most balanced way to eat and exercise. I believe that a "REAL FOOD" and "quality" training approach is most advantageous for overall health and fitness gains. I do not support fad diets or meal plans and I accept that life is a journey and we must make every day count.
Always aim for progress and not perfection.
If you want to create positive and lasting lifestyle habits, consistency in life will determine what you do today, how you perform tomorrow and what will happen in the future.
