NutritionPeriodization for Endurance Athletes contains everything athletes and professionals need to know about a year-round approach to training and nutrition. Combining traditional physical training cycle principles with the latest nutritional expertise, this useful guide takes sports nutrition to the next level. Typically, an athlete's nutritional choices are scrutinized only for the weeks leading up to an event and immediately after it. However, for athletes who take a year-round approach to training, a more inclusive approach to nutrition can promote peak performance and a successful season. Benefits of a phase-specific approach are discussed as well as detailed nutritional recommendations for the different phases of the training cycle.
