Free download Nutrition for Sport & Exercise (5th Edition) by Marie Dunford & J. Andrew Doyle in pdf.
Nutrition for Sport and Exercise is primarily intended as a college-level textbook for upper-division courses in sports nutrition. It clearly illustrates the connections between exercise, nutrition, and key objectives such as recovery, peak performance, and overall health.
Beyond just explaining the reasoning behind nutritional recommendations for athletes, this text equips both instructors and students with the tools to translate these guidelines into practical plans—detailing the appropriate types and amounts of foods, beverages, and supplements to support training, recovery, and performance.
While grounded in scientific research and evidence-based principles, the book also offers practical nutrition insights and is structured to facilitate effective teaching.
To understand sports nutrition, students must have a solid understanding of both nutrition and exercise physiology. For instance, carbohydrates, which are present in food, serve as a primary fuel source for exercise.
The type and quantity of carbohydrates in food fall under the realm of nutrition, while the effects of exercise intensity and duration on carbohydrate utilization pertain to exercise physiology. Sports nutrition bridges these concepts, as factors like the timing of carbohydrate intake or the amount needed to delay fatigue depend on both disciplines.
This book aims to seamlessly integrate the principles of nutrition and exercise physiology into a structured, scientifically grounded, and practical guide to sports nutrition.
The fifth edition of Nutrition for Sport and Exercise includes a thorough review of the most recent published literature so that the material included in the textbook represents the most current, cutting-edge scientific information, up-to-date guidelines, and evidence-based recommendations.
Learning objectives have been closely matched with major headings and multiple-choice questions to help students recognize and learn the major concepts of each chapter. Current guidelines and position papers appear throughout, including the 2020–2025 Dietary Guidelines and the 2016 Nutrition and Athletic Performance position paper.
The analysis of a 24-hour diet of a male collegiate cross-country runner, which is used as an example throughout the text, has been updated to make it easier to compare goals with intake.
