It is important for athletes and their trainers to know the proper nutritional requirements appropriate for their individual sport; this practice is known as the "training table." This book addresses nutritional needs for athletes from a training table perspective. It discusses the roles of individual nutrients including protein, carbohydrates, fats, and fluids. Focusing on key macronutrients, the text presents the energy demands of sports for sedentary versus active individuals, endurance athletes, and strength/power athletes. It also covers calorie needs for improving body composition and inducing muscle hypertrophy as well as nutrient timing for optimal adaptation and recovery.
