Description
Nutrition and Supplements in Cycling provides a comprehensive guide to the key nutritional aspects for cyclists, from health to macro- and micro-nutrients. This evidence-based handbook covers the nutritional demands of various cycling disciplines, including short- and long-distance events, as well as the impact of training and racing in different environmental conditions. The book is structured around two distinct parts: one focusing on the nutrition needs of cyclists, and the other evaluating novel and existing supplements used by riders. It brings together a team of experts to provide insightful evaluations of the latest science and translate that knowledge into practical recommendations for enhancing cycling performance. This book is an essential resource for active cyclists, coaches, athletes, researchers, and students of sport and exercise science, nutrition, human performance, and exercise physiology.
