Review:
5.0 out of 5 stars Straddles science with applicable info very well
While I'm not a professional athlete, I am a fairly serious recreational athlete just over 30 years old. Year over year I'm increasing my fitness load from cycling, running, lifting weights, snowboarding, hiking, and rock climbing and the marginal benefit that dialing in my diet, sleep, and recovery patterns is increasingly important. I've also done everything from put on 30lbs by eating 4,500+ kcal/day to dropping all of that again over a 9 month period. In short, a lot of this information is applicable to me and I have attempted to utilize it before.At the same time, if you read enough fitness stuff in books or online it does feel like all of the info can blur together and sometimes contradict itself. This is where I think this book is the strongest. Without outright saying it, the author applies a sort of Pareto Principle to the information by giving you the science but then telling you where to actually focus your efforts (for example, listing the top three supplements or being honest about the limits that adaptive thermogenesis places on cratering a macro in order to lean out). I bought this book as a kindle edition and I'm already considering buying a paper copy because there are at least 10 areas in the first 25% of this book that I intend to apply to my training. Great great book if you are starting to take your training seriously.
5.0 out of 5 stars I love this book.
Everyone who care about their health should read this book. It encompasses far more than training and running.
5.0 out of 5 stars Honestly - this book could not have been written better
Talk about a consuming book! I have such a hard time putting this thing down. He could not have broken down these chapters any more clearly and organized. Each chapter perfectly leads into the next. I started tabbing info into chapter 3 and now I want to go back, re-read it so that I can absorb the information better - it’s so good I wish he wrote more books 😭I also noticed a review about this book only being for men… which is HIGHLY inaccurate. I started implementing his strategies about 4-5 months back and saw some great improvements in my performance - taking some gold medals in my sport along the way! This is definitely for women too.One thing to note: if you have a very basic understanding of nutrition and athletic performance - this may not be the book for you (at least to start with!). I’m not a nutritionist or a pro level athlete but I’ve dedicated quite a bit of time to consuming info in this industry over the last 10 years to know enough to be dangerous and there were a few sections that were a bit too scientific than my level of understanding. That being said…. he does do a good job and summarizing in layman’s terms and even admits in the book when he’s going down a rabbit hole of scientific info lol.To give credit where it’s due - I learned about this book when Zack Bitter (100 miler run world record holder) mentioned it on joe rogans podcast.
5.0 out of 5 stars A must read
If you’re into coaching and nutrition, this is a must have. A lot of us coaches have been struggling with all the info thrown at us in social media. Well this book has a lot of research backing it up.
5.0 out of 5 stars Highly recommend
Great book that dives deep into the importance of nutrition and recovery for athletes and anyone looking to reach their full potential. I’d recommend this to every coach that works with athletes or any personal trainer. There really hasn’t been another book in this field like this, so it’s a must read!
5.0 out of 5 stars Just the Facts, no Ph. D. required
Loved the book! Instead of covering one small area of training science in great detail, Dr. Bubbs hits the key points in a wide area of sports performance. Diet, sleep, the mental game; it’s all covered. Just enough science without burying the average athlete looking to get faster with Ph.D. level discussion.
5.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding Resource
Dr. Bubbs does a great job covering a wide variety of topics. He covers each topic with enough depth to do it service, but not too much that it overwhelms you. This is a great starting point in taking the next step in human performance.
5.0 out of 5 stars Great book if you want to perform better
I really liked this book .... resolved and gave me new ideas how to improve and at the same time keeping my health safe ... so many years pushing so hard without rest ... 💪🏾
The single best book for fitness enthusiasts and budding athletes.
I first borrowed this book from my local library last year. It was so helpful that I read every page with a notebook at my side. I applied much of the content to my own athletic goals and saw a great improvement in my performance. I had to buy it to use as a reference for any future questions or problems I encounter.I highly recommend it!
Lohnt sich!
Das Buch ist super gut! Ich habe mir vor dem Kauf viele negative Rezensionen durchgelesen, um zu schauen, was negativ an dem Buch sein könnte. Ich habe mir das Bich dann trotzdem gekauft und war aufgrund der Rezensionen vorrangig skeptisch, doch Dr. Marc Bubbs hat mich komplett abgeholt! Jede einzelne Studie, die erwähnt wird ist am Ende verlinkt! Für jeden, der sich für wissenschaftlich fundiertes im Soort interessiert, ist dieses Buch ein Must have! Das einzige, was ich schade finde ist, dass das Buch irgendwann zu Ende war! Vielen Dank Mr. Bubbs!
Learning so much already
I love learning more about sports performance and this is great so far!
Fantastic book
Great book based on science.
Great book for every level of nutrition and fitness enthusiast.
Amazing book, Dr. Mark does a great job relaying the info on a level anyone can grasp. I have since recommended and had my Wife and Brother in-law purchase this book. The Audio book was perfect and my wife has the hard copy for future reference.
