Descrizione
Diet and food supplements can make a difference when you are doing regular
physical activity, but you have to choose carefully and it is not easy to find your
own way around the many proposals on the market.
This book helps athletes in
managing nutrition and choosing supplements that improve athletic performance,
based on strong scientific evidence and in complete safety.
It covers all the main
types of physical activity, from the gym to cycling, from running to crossfit,
considering also the needs of special categories of sportsmen, such as senior
athletes, diabetics, vegans and paying particular attention to women.
Specific
nutritional approaches, such as the ketogenic diet and intermittent fasting, are
also described. 86 data sheets report the features and properties supplements that
allow an optimal performance. Each supplement is assigned a score, to allow the
reader to evaluate its effectiveness in improving the parameters that influence
athletic performance (strength, resistant strength, mass, endurance, weight loss,
concentration, recovery).
