However, that’s generally as useful as a physician telling a client they need to lose weight and then sending them out the office door.

Consiglio questo libro a tutti i praticanti di sport e non solo perchè anche se con lunghi giri di parole e forse troppi esempi esprime un concetto base molto importante : mangiare bene, regolarmente è meglio che privarsi del cibo sperando di raggiungere obbiettivi duraturi nel tempo........lo consiglio sopratutto come riferimento per la gestione del peso.
This book is perhaps the only one that really says how things are. I've read so many books on how to lose weight and manage your diet but finally there is someone who says that diets for weight loss are not suited for sports athletes.
I recommend this book to all practitioners of sports and not just because even if with long turns of phrase, and perhaps too many examples expresses a basic concept very important: eat well as much as you can, you'd better regularly deprive yourself of food, hoping to reach goals long-lasting .. I recommend it ...... especially as a reference for weight management.
In any case, it would be a very good book about nutrition and I would have gave 4 stars if I wouldn't have been vegan. The way the author talks about vegans is so irritating, and sometimes even confusing. Some chapters start with titles like "Eat meat" but they end with "if you don't it's ok". I think the author is pretty much confused of what being vegan is all about. He describes vegans as a bunch of health focused people that don't eat meat and dairy because they have read the China Study. Does the author know that 90% vegans choose to avoid animal products because they find killing animals a matter of social injustice. Does the author know that 90% vegans choose to avoid animal products because eating meat causes enormous amounts of pollution and the meat industry is one of the biggest cause of climate change?
Before comparing veganism to paleo and other food choices, maybe the author should try to understand the difference between an ideology and food trends.
Alcuni di questi comportamenti virtuosi, almeno per me, fanno già parte del quotidiano ma, considerando che il target è il pubblico americano, vengono ribaditi ed approfonditi.

Acho legal os conceitos de ciclar períodos focados na perda de peso, e períodos focados na performance. Também achei interessante a lista dos melhores alimentos para corredores, explicando por que cada um vai te ajudar.
O DQS, onde ele dá ou tira pontos a cada porção de alimento que vc ingere daquela categoria é uma opção legal, mas existem hoje apps que controlam a ingestão calórica facilmente, que prefiro. Vale a pena ler sim, se você for corredor, pois não tem muita coisa sobre nutrição específica para corrida, que não seja um bocado de receitas, por aí.
Heavily backed by scientific studies. Gives deep insight into what to eat and how to eat the right amount. Understand which weight you need for racing. Lots of real-life examples of pro's who work on their weight. This is like the bible of weight management for athletes.
I found it has lots of biking references, (me being a biker) is really good.
I made lots and lots of notes as I read this.
I now use the DQS app on my android and lost around 2 pounds. Good stuff, reccomend.
