The title of my wordpress blog is Exercise and Nutrition Tips. I ran a title tag analysis and it includes my description and says my title tag is to big. It shows:
<title>Exercise and Nutrition Tips » Helping people reach their fitness goals</title>

Here is my header.php for <title>
<title>
<?php if ( is_home() ) { ?><?php bloginfo('name'); ?> &raquo; <?php bloginfo('description'); ?><?php } ?>
<?php if ( is_search() ) { ?>Search Results &raquo; <?php bloginfo('name'); ?><?php } ?>
<?php if ( is_author() ) { global $wp_query; $curauth = $wp_query->get_queried_object(); ?>Author Archives &raquo; <?php echo $curauth->nickname; ?> &raquo; <?php bloginfo('name'); ?><?php } ?>
<?php if ( is_single() ) { ?><?php wp_title(''); ?> &raquo; <?php bloginfo('name'); ?><?php } ?>
<?php if ( is_page() ) { ?><?php wp_title(''); ?> &raquo; <?php bloginfo('name'); ?><?php } ?>
<?php if ( is_category() ) { ?><?php single_cat_title(); ?> &raquo; Archive &raquo; <?php bloginfo('name'); ?><?php } ?>
<?php if ( is_year() ) { ?><?php the_time('Y'); ?> &raquo; Archive &raquo; <?php bloginfo('name'); ?><?php } ?>
<?php if ( is_month() ) { ?><?php the_time('F Y'); ?> &raquo; Archive &raquo; <?php bloginfo('name'); ?><?php } ?>
<?php if ( is_day() ) { ?><?php the_time('d F Y'); ?> &raquo; Archive &raquo; <?php bloginfo('name'); ?><?php } ?>
<?php if (function_exists('is_tag')) { if (is_tag()) { ?><?php single_tag_title("", true); ?> &raquo; Tag Archive &raquo; <?php bloginfo('name'); ?><?php } } ?>
</title>

Is there something I should change?

    I would just capitalize the first letter of every word. So instead of "Helping people reach their fitness goals" it would be "Helping People Reach Their Fitness Goals"

    I would like for it to just show Exercise and Nutrition Tips. Is there some way to just have the title recognized as the title and not have the description included.

      Yes.

      Change this:
      <?php if ( is_home() ) { ?><?php bloginfo('name'); ?> &raquo; <?php bloginfo('description'); ?><?php } ?>

      to this:
      <?php if ( is_home() ) { ?><?php bloginfo('name'); ?><?php } ?>

      Omit the &raquo; <?php bloginfo('description'); ?> section.

    Hi,
    You can store this in a variable and then display it in a head part
    this would reduce the length of your title tag
