THE ART AND SCIENCE OF LOW CARBOHYDRATE PERFORMANCE: A REVOLUTIONARY PROGRAM TO EXTEND YOUR PHYSICAL AND MENTAL PERFORMANCE ENVELOPE

Book ID/图书代码： 12355714B76623

English Summary/英文概要： A Revolutionary Program to Extend Your Physical and Mental Performance Envelope. Our recent book ’The Art and Science of Low Carbohydrate Living’ was written for health care professionals, championing the benefits of carbohydrate restriction to manage insulin resistance, metabolic syndrome, and type-2 diabetes. In response, our athlete friends asked "What about us?" This companion book is our answer, and it could be titled: ’The Art and Science of Avoiding the BONK’. But actually, it is much much more than that. The keto-adapted athlete benefits from superior fuel flow not only when nearing glycogen depletion, but also during training, recovery, and in response to resistance exercise as well. "On a well designed ketogenic diet as recommended by Jeff and Steve, I consume up to 4200 Calories per day while maintaining 6-7% body fat. This transformation has increased my power to mass ratio and allows a high level of performance in a range of activities. Equally if not more important is the efficiency with which I operate in every facet of my life. My energy level in the keto-adapted state is constant and nver undulates." Tony Ricci, MS, CSCS, LDN, CISSN, CNS. High Performance Coach/Sports Nutritionist

Chinese Summary/中文概要： 这本书将为读者提供增强机体和心理表现的革命性计划。我们的最新书籍《低碳水化合物性能的艺术与科学》是为保健专业人士设计的，书中非常推崇限制碳水化合物的摄入对控制胰岛素耐受性、代谢综合症状、二类糖尿病带来的益处。而我们的运动员朋友也在问我们：“那我们呢？”这本书就是我们的答案。接受酮体的运动员受益于良好的能量流动，而且这种能量流动并不会只发生在糖原接近耗竭时，也有可能出现在训练、恢复和对抗练习中。“在这份由杰夫和史蒂夫推荐的生酮饮食中，我每天大约消耗4200卡路里，体脂维持在6-7%。这种转变增强了我的体能，也让我在许多活动中有了更好的表现，在生活的方方面面办事效率上也提高了不少。我的能量水平一直都很恒定。”托尼•罗西，高表现教练/体育营养师(XAT)

Awards/获奖情况：虽然有许多低碳水化合物的权威著作（例如加里•陶布斯和伦•柯登的作品），《低碳水化合物性能的艺术与科学》填补了运动员这一领域的空白。这本书写得非常吸引人，有许多令人信服的科学依据，却简洁精悍。它阐述了为什么低碳水化合物对于高强度的运动员也有效，着重解释了为什么碳水化合物在运动期间及以后并不是必要的补充品。书中建议运动员在训练之外的时间应该减少碳水化合物的摄入。作者提供了非常实用的建议，包括特定的食谱，如何根据每个人的身体情况节食，但同时确保足够微量元素的摄入。《低碳水化合物的艺术与科学》是一本非常实用的参考书籍。

While there are authorative works on low carb approach in general (see Gary Taubes and Loren Cordain in particular), this book fills an important gap for athletes. It is written in an engaging style, with enough science to be convincing but without being too long. It explains why a low-carb approach makes perfect sense even for those undertaking endurance effort, particularly why carbs are not necessary during or after exercise in those adapted to this type of diet. Much advice for athletes in the past advocated switching to carbohydrates in training while reducing their intake in other times. Authors provide practical advice, including specific recipes, on how to personalise a low card diet and ensure adequate intake of micronutrients. A very good read and an invaluable short practical reference.
