Review: "Practical Sports Nutrition is the first text to provide detailed, sport-specific advice enabling you to approach individual athletes and teams with an understanding of their sport and unique nutritional needs." "Nutrition expert Louise Burke covers a wide variety of popular sports - providing information that is applied, practical, and useful. Each chapter offers a comprehensive review of competition, training, physique and physiology, lifestyle and culture, dietary surveys, sports foods and supplements - all tailored to the specific sport. It also discusses the issues and challenges arising in each sport and provides useful examples of how to successfully tackle sports-specific problems."--BOOK JACKET.
