Have you ever wondered how professional athletes stay strong and fit? How they recover after competitions, how much water they drink, what they eat, and when? Do you or your kids play local competition sport, or run in marathons or go on long distance bike rides? And would you like how professional athletes do it?

In Eat Like An Athlete, sports dietitian Simone Austin shares practical tips on how to boost your performance through nutrition, derived from her years of experience advising advising elite athletes. Simone’s hands-on manual allows people of all ages, from weekend warriors to professional players, to give their bodies optimal nourishment for training, competition and recovery.

The book covers the role of the important nutrients in the body and impact of the immune system, and addresses questions around liquid intake, food pre- and post training, and nutritional requirements for different age groups. It also provides useful advice on how to implement the eating like an athlete lifestyle into everyday life around the workspace, at home, with friends, while travelling or when eating out.

Eat Like An Athlete is here to help you optimise your performance in the sport and physical activities you enjoy.
