The first thing I noticed is that the dark background with light colored font are difficult on the eyes. Generally, a white or off white background are preferable when it comes to holding the attention of your site visitors. I read some about this in a book called "The Soul in Cyberspace." Although this book is primarily directed at Christians on the Internet, he goes into studies which have been conducted on how different forms of media effect the user's brain and vision.
The most effective would be dark colored font (such as navy blue or black) on light colored background (white, light grey, light beige, offwhite) using Arial or Times New Roman style. Sounds boring I know, but you want what reader and visitor retention over "cool" or "different" when it comes to graphic design and aesthetics.
Also, you say this about yourself: I
am a Sports Nutritionist, Certified Personal Trainer, Certified Fitness
Therapist, Reiki Master, and a B.S. in Recreation Management. My
passion is assisting people in their pursuit of health and fitness.
All I can say is WOW! You have a ton of experience to draw from when it comes to an effective blog. You need to start a blog and pull from all of your knowledge and experience to build a readership and get them subscribed to RSS and coming back daily.
Btw, do you see the difference between this font and the other that I was using?
Hope this helps. I will be happy to answer any other questions you have.
