The realms of biochemistry, nutrition, physiology and psychology
are finally made accessible to the athlete in this long-awaited
text which has been written for anyone who wishes to understand
more about the scientific basis of athletic training and
performance. The authors have provided a wealth of information on
this subject and, at the same time, have succeeded in producing a
creative, up-to-date, easy to understand but completely
authoritative text which will appeal to athletes at any stage of
their career, as well as coaches and physicians. It is also
intended to help students of sports science, in particular those
who do not have a strong background in science. By presenting
'biochemistry without the equations and physiology without the
mathematics' the authors have ensured that the book will have a
wide audience. Features include a highly illustrated text, high
carbohydrate recipe suggestions for athletes, practical training
schedules and a comprehensive bibliography. Includes training
schedules by Bruce Tulloh, gold medalist and currently training
editor of Runner's World. "Overall a great book -- possibly the
best that's been published for years." Today's Runner "Absolutely
excellent -- combines aspects of physiology and biochemistry and I
for one will utilise it thoroughly in any course I am running." N.
C. Craig Sharp, Professor of Sports Science, University of Limerick
and former Senior Physiologist at the Olympic Medical Centre,
London
