The Complete Guide to Sports Nutrition: 8th edition

Awesome product

Fantastic

This book is about how nutrition works in conjunction with athletics. It's about food relative to athletic activity. If you aren't a calorie counter and aren't interested in charts and graphs you might find this book to be unnecessary but there is still a lot of interesting info in it anyway. The book is very nicely designed and printed. If you need a gift for an athletic friend, including a kid because there is a section for kid athletes, this book would be fantastic.

This is one of those few perspective-changing books that you come across. I have been interested in weight-training, cardio activities and sports nutrition for a number of years, in the hope that I will improve my fitness levels and get leaner/more muscular. Up until reading this book I depended solely on magazines such as Muscle and Fitness for information and guidelines, but finding progress to be quite slow. This book changed everything. From the outset it is easily accessible but very informative, providing effective and revealing advice. As a result I am eating more healthily and effectively as regards to my training needs, and have found my progress to have quickened considerably. Extremely useful is the section on how much of carbs, protein and fat you need to eat for different goals (weight gain, fat loss, or sports-specific needs). It is ESSENTIAL reading to anyone who cares about their health, but especially for those who take their training and/or body composition seriously. Trust me, you'll be glad you bought this book!

Recommened and thank you

Ho comprato il libro per avere una visione complessiva della nutrizione e perché sono appassionato di sport..Sebbene sia interessante, è forse un po’ troppo tecnico e non facilissimo da seguire.

add up very useful knowledge

Nice book and easy to understand and calculate how much you have to eat!
