Book Reviews of The Grapplers Guide to Sports Nutrition
Book Review: Excellent guide to develop good eating habits.
Summary: 5 Stars
Basic nutrition information, that is often ignored by people. Examples eat every 2-3 hours, lean protein with vegetables etc... I especially liked the habits section. In the long run it will pay dividends when it comes to performance. Of course the most important information in the book is the guide to cut weight in a healthy manner. Unfortunately the unhealthy way that poses risks to athletes are rampant, these includes friends I have. Luckily I will introduce this book to others and hopefully it will help more people out there from being unaware.
One odd and ironic note. In the back cover has a comment from Paulo Filho (MMA Fighter, BJJ Practitioner) complimenting the information from the book. When Paulo himself in his last match did not make weight and was over by seven lbs. The other rumors the time he had in Japan might have caused internal damage, due to cutting a lot of weight. Hopefully he will be healthy from now on.
