Average Rating:
 Rating: - Essential for Training!A "must-have" reference book on nutrition for all athletes,body-builders,fitness buffs,runners,cyclists....anyone who trains. Well laid out,simple to understand,and allows you to pick-up important little nuggets of information and adapt them into your training regime. Will be well-thumbed in ANY gym by trainers and athletes looking for that LEGAL extra edge. Rating: - As important as your training planAnita Bean is to training and nutrition as Jamie Oliver is to cooking. Easy to understand and the methodology can be easily applied. However well you train, you won't achieve the optimum performance unless you have taken the right food and drink before and after a session, and taken it at the time that it will have the best effect on your body. Anita Bean not only provides that advice, but also covers weight gain and loss, young athletes, women, and 'veggies'. If you're half serious about your sport and fitness, you need this book. Whilst all the reviewers so far have given this book 5 stars, the best endorsement for me was when I recently attended an outpatients department and the young clinician who saw me reading the book said; "that's ... Read More: Rating: - Its a good bookI have been training for about 4 months now, and last ,month I bought a book from Amazon called Muscle Mechanics which was great. But there was a piece of the jigsaw missing - nutrition. I ordered this book based on reviews etc. And I am extremely happy to say it is all I will ever need. I know little about nitriotion, but this book has given me a much better understanding. I have already made adjustments to my diet and based on the advice in the book will start taking additional supplements. If your Vegan, young, old - this book is for you. Rating: - An actual COMPLETE GUIDE! Fascinating ReadingAdmittedly I have only had the initial flick through and a read of the parts I found most interesting at first but I will read through the entire book when I get it back from my fitness enthuisiast work colleague who has borrowed it and is finding it as fascinating as I did. He does cite it as more of an academic book than a leisurely read but is still enjoying it anyway. I bought this with a hope of finding out more about how the body works during excercise and the part that food plays in that function and it hasnt disappointed me. Ive learnt exactly what I wanted to and more. Theres parts for working out your daily calorie intake and all those sorts of things. This isnt a basic 'basic' book but I wouldnt say you need a science degree ... Read More: Rating: - Essential ReadingThis 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 ... Read More: |
