Dear Linked-In friends, thank you all 👏 for your feedback on the draft cover for our 4th edition Sport Nutrition textbook (Jeukendrup & Gleeson) which will be published by Human Kinetics in June 2024. Given that 40% of you disliked the cover 🙁 (certainly too many for our liking) and there were many comments that the photo lacked any nutrition element (and was a bit blurry with too much water splash) 😕 we have decided to go with a different cover photo that eliminates these issues. Below is the final book cover depicting a professional road race cyclist consuming a carb gel; a sharp action photo accompanied by colour-coordinated text. No vote this time as we need to move to the final production stage and put together the marketing materials. However, please feel free to tell us if you like the photo 😃 by simply liking this post! I’ll be posting more about the book content in the coming months and am very confident that you will find this to be the best sport nutrition book you have ever read. If you want to know the reasons for the guidelines about food, sports foods and supplements that are given to athletes as well as what, when and how much to give to optimise performance, recovery, and overall health, this is the book you need. It will, of course. be available as paperback and eBook. You can expect the underpinning science, current controversies and guidelines to be explained clearly and superbly illustrated with full colour figures, infographics and photos.   #medicine #eat #profmichaelgleeson #sportscience #sportnutrition #sport #healthylifestyle #wellness #diet #calories #healthyeating #foods #fitness #fatloss #exercise #healthyfood #fat #diabetes #publichealth #motivation #nutrition #healthcare #wellness #wellbeing #sleep #foodhygiene #training #nutritionist #dietitian #chef #triathlon #rugby #americanfootball #athletics #golf #tennis #ioc #iaaf #football #soccer #performance #supplements #footballsupplements #uefa #fifa #fa #premierleague #leicestercity #oldhamathletic #hockey #stength #power #endurance #cycling #running #swimming #basketball #cricket

How Conteh Sports is helping bodybuilders perform at peak levels

The Satter Eating Competence Model practices nutritional judo: It goes with the desire to eat as much as we want of food we genuinely enjoy, rather than struggling against it. Judo means “the way of gentleness,” and is an orderly and positive method for trusting and making use of one’s own power: one’s own drives. This month’s Family Meals Focus discusses how trusting our biopsychosocial drives allows us to learn and grow with eating—and with nutrition. https://lnkd.in/gebzKsfZ

Padel player’s diet As far as the diet of a padel player is concerned, it is important that it matches the energy requirements of the athlete and that, despite the many journeys that can be made at the professional level, this is not a reason to forgo a varied and balanced diet. #diet #padelgame #nutrition #plandecomidas #athlete #dinner #health #adviceforbeginners #padeltraining https://lnkd.in/dv2wvsTd

🗣✏️ As a chef, you originally look at a meal or food that you’re preparing and think, how does it taste? How does it look? But then you have this dynamic of the nutritional needs of the athletes. So when you do your menu planning, you have to understand there are certain athletes who want a carb-heavy diet, there are certain athletes who want lean protein. There are a lot of different factors that you have to take into account, and then wrap all that up into the question of how do I make it taste? How do we make it look good, and appealing to the athletes, especially over a long period of time? https://lnkd.in/d_zwMNVJ

Rock roll!!! noted: The triathlete’s diet should include a good balance of #protein, #carbs, and #healthy fat to stay full and well-fueled during #workouts and beyond. When training, fuel throughout the day with lean proteins, good fats, a wide range of colorful fruits and veggies, and complex carbs (e.g., potatoes, rice, whole grains) during meals and snacks. #Hydration around the clock—not just during workouts—is absolutely essential as well. Be sure to sip on #water and/or an electrolyte beverage throughout the day #training #physicaldevelopment #diet #cognitivescience #athlete #health

The 80/20 Rule: Is it good for your overall nutrition intake? Is it good for golfers and athletes of other sports? The 80/20 Rule isn’t a new concept. It was first developed by Vilfredo Pareto in 1896. The Pareto principle (aka 80/20 rule) was used to explain the concept of how roughly 80% of effects come from 20% of causes. It is referred to in many different areas from scoring in sports games (20% of players score 80% of the points), decluttering your clothes closet (identifying 20% of the clothes you wear 80% of the time), productivity (completing 20% of your tasks that result in 80% of the overall impact), and golf (your best 20% swings will have 80% of the impact on your round). https://lnkd.in/et_ABuU9 Follow The Golf And Travel Show South Florida Golf Tournaments
