Essentials of Exercise & Sport Nutrition: Science to Practice

We all want to look and feel good. We also want to perform well whether it's in the weight room, in sports, or at work. Research has shown exercise, proper nutrition, and adequate recovery affect health and human performance. However, there's lot of conflicting and confusing information regarding exercise and nutrition. In Essentials of Exercise and Sport Nutrition, author Dr. Richard B. Kreider offers an up-to-date assessment of the science and practice of exercise and sport nutrition. Kreider, who has conducted extensive research on the subject and has consulted with numerous teams, coaches, and athletes for more than thirty years, brings a scientific and applied perspective to discussing the latest research and how it can be used to optimize performance. He also provides summary recommendations, training programs, and meal plans for beginners through athletes, as well as for individuals who want to lose and/or manage their weight.

A gym rat himself and one of the world's foremost authorities in the field of muscle-building, with a specialty in neurophysiology, Chad Waterbury has developed novel training methods that run counter to many long-accepted theories and practices. Forget lifting moderate weights slowly for lots of sets and reps. Instead, Waterbury insists that the best way to get huge in a hurry is to use heavy weights and lift them quickly for fewer repetitions. The athletes and lifters he trains and the tens of thousands who read his articles on the online bodybuilding magazine "T-Nation "have been reaping the benefits. And now readers of this book can too. Designed for intermediate to advanced weight-lifters, the Men's Health "Huge in a Hurry "program will enable readers to: - add mass and size--as much as 10 pounds of muscle - get stronger quickly--realize a 5 percent increase in strength in the first few weeks - build power and stamina--increase their one-rep max in their core lifts by as much as 30 percent - lose fat fast--burn off up to 10 pounds of fat, mostly in the first few weeks The result is a set of groundbreaking workouts that maximize the efficiency and effectiveness of training time for quick and impressive results.
