Using a physiological basis, this text provides an in-depth look at the science behind sport nutrition. Students will come away with an understanding of nutrition as it relates to sport and the influence of nutrition on performance, training, and recovery. This text is organized with the student in mind, with content sequenced in a logical order that puts building blocks in place to facilitate greater comprehension as more advanced topics are introduced. The book moves from general principles of nutrition and nutrient requirements to estimating and fulfilling energy needs with the appropriate combinations of macronutrients and micronutrients. Supplements are addressed from a scientific standpoint, followed by the influence of nutrition on training adaptations, immune function, body composition, weight management, and eating disorders. The new chapter on personalized nutrition covers periodized nutrition, gender differences, and special populations (young athletes, older athletes, and diabetic athletes) and offers practical examples from specific sports. This third edition contains revised and expanded information to keep students current on the latest findings in sport nutrition: • Updated nutrition guidelines • A new chapter on personalized nutrition that helps readers move from theory into practice as they better understand how to customize nutrition based on an individual’s unique background and needs • Addition of practical carbohydrate intake guidelines for athletes in a wide variety of sports • Updated information on protein metabolism and recommendations on the type, amount, and timing of protein intake to maximize training adaptation • Developments from the field of molecular biology that explain how adaptations to exercise training are influenced by nutrition • Expanded coverage of the rapidly developing field of immunonutrition Sport Nutrition, Third Edition, includes a number of tools to facilitate student learning. More than 300 figures, tables, and photos offer visual illustration of important concepts, methods, and research findings. Updated and new sidebars provide in-depth coverage of selected topics, making it easier to grasp the scientific concepts presented. Each chapter also includes learning objectives and key points to help students retain the information. In addition to being mindful of students, the authors remained conscious of the needs of instructors. With years of experience in teaching sport nutrition, the authors constructed chapters in a natural progression, making class lectures easier to prepare and deliver. Instructors will also find an ancillary package consisting of an instructor guide, test package, and presentation package plus image bank to further support their efforts. More than a simple prescription of recommendations, Sport Nutrition, Third Edition, offers a systematic presentation of the science supporting nutrition guidelines. It is an ideal book to provide a comprehensive understanding of nutrition as it relates to sport, exercise performance, training, and recovery.

And came on time! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Curso Universitário Completo *by X***N on 3 May 2019* É um curso universitário completo de nutrição esportiva. São dois profissionais com muita experiência lhe dizendo o jeito certo de fazer dieta. Inicialmente, fiquei na dúvida, pois Jeukendrup e Gleeson sugeriram que eu praticamente dobrasse a minha ingestão de calorias e de que eu praticamente triplicasse a ingestão de carboidratos. Ingerir todas essas calorias é um desafio, é comida até demais. E mesmo assim, comecei a perder peso novamente; coisa que não acontecia faz um bom tempo. Também consigo uma excelente recuperação até de treinos intensos. Aos poucos vou amentar a ingestão de calorias até alcançar o equilíbrio de nem ganhar e nem perder peso. Estou dois meses da próxima maratona, e não é ideal perder ou ganhar peso no momento. Tem muita coisa técnica e científica no livro, que levaria um tempo para estudar. Pessoalmente, estou mais interessado na parte prática, que é muito bem escrita. O livro tem certo volume, mais de 600 páginas. Este livro, junto com o The Triathlete’s Training Bible de Joe Friel, são os únicos livros que o corredor, nadador, ciclista vão precisar para obter sucesso. ## Frequently Bought Together - Sport Nutrition - LWW - ACSM's Guidelines for Exercise Testing and Prescription (American College of Sports Medicine) (Lippincott Connect-ACSM) - Essentials of Strength Training and Conditioning --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ie/products/187439670-sport-nutrition](https://www.desertcart.ie/products/187439670-sport-nutrition) --- *Product available on Desertcart Ireland* *Store origin: IE* *Last updated: 2026-10-16*
