Sports Nutrition for Endurance Athletes

The book is written in a very good and clear way. The structure is also very good. The information is not so complete, but is valid and enough for most athletes, and it's a very good start for one that has not read other (good) books concerning nutrition. Those who seek deep information on nutrition will not be covered bu this book (but it's a book worth having)

this book provides the basics of nutrition, and provides lot of practical advice and guidelines. It is easy to read and put to practice. It ended my doubts about how to eat and drink for various forms of training, during tapers, and at race day. And so far with good results. More than worth the money. Joris

This is a well-written and authoritative review of many aspects of sports nutrition, with an emphasis on the specific needs of endurance athletes. Triathletes, endurance runners and cyclists will especially benefit -- there are separate spections geared just for their needs. Provides insight into not only meeting nutritional needs before, during, and after training and racing, this book offers guidance into an integrated approach to an overall nutritional program. Also provides a useful discussion of many nutritional supplements, including ergogenic aids, vitamins, and commercial sources of carbohydrates, lipids, protein, and hydration. Recommended read for the serious athlete.

This book provides a wealth of information in nutrition, equipment, and sample workouts for various sports. It is very easy to read and understand.

Excellent book, up to date. Essential reading for anyone who is serious about improving their training and race performance. Thank you !
