5.0 out of 5 stars A great book for high performance endurance athletes!, June 26, 2000
Sports nutrition encompasses scientific research, food and fluid recommendations, and practical applications for training and competition. Designed for endurance athletes-this book has it all! Combining the latest scientific findings, sport nutrition guidance, and practical fueling strategies of elite endurance athletes makes this book excel. Learning how highly competitive athletes apply sport nutrition recommendations is especially valuable. This book is well organized, engaging to read, and targeted for high level athletic performance. I teach sports nutrition online at Montana State University and definitely recommend this book to my students.

5.0 out of 5 stars excellent training resource, September 13, 2000
By Kate D (Portland OR) - See all my reviews
this author knows her stuff. this is a good, very up-to-date handbook for the serious endurance athlete (and for the serious weekend warrior!). as a former pro triathlete, and still a hack marathoner, i had not read a sports nutrition book in several years. for me, this book was a great refresher, and also a reminder of the importance of proper diet in a high performance lifestyle. highly recommended for people who are active and either already performing at a high level, or training to improve their performance. runners, skiers, hikers, cyclists, triathletes, etc. will find relevant, sport-specific info, too.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great information for all levels of endurance athletes!, June 1, 2000
By dale (California) - See all my reviews
I thought this book would be too technical for me, the non-elite endurance runner, but I was wrong. Not to say there isn't information that would help the elite athlete - there is - but I was bowled over by the easy-to-read, no-nonsense, useful suggestions on how to go the distance. (In fact, I learned as much from the "other" endurance sports as I did from the running sections. Want to run a marathon? Check out the information from the RAM cycling section...the info there applies perfectly! ) Also, GREAT athlete interviews and case studies. This is a must-read for the budding or elite athlete or any coach or advisor. You'll find yourself going back to it over and over again.
