This book is great for parents and coaches, after commenting some details with other parents and my son's Basquetball coach, everyone asked for the name of the book. It is practical and simple, and you will find specific nutrition recommendations for different sports.

I have owned this book for 1 year and it is well worn. The concepts are easy to understand and make sense. I have loaned this to our swim coaches and the mom of our local High school football star. The recipes are easy to prepare and most important...taste good. I really like the section on Team Dinners...lots of great suggestions. Buy two right away because people borrow this little book all the time.

This gets more use in our house than any other cookbook . It's very basic and simple. Common sense stuff. I'm not known for my cooking, but this book is easy for me to use and put out quality meals that taste good and that middle school kids will eat. My daughter and her athlete friends are on board (sometimes) with the concept of eating well to improve performance, and they use these recipes themselves. I actually made the granola and it's awesome.
 Not what I had in mind. September 12, 2005

I was looking for a serious guide to highschool athletes and their nutritional needs. Instead I got a cutesy feed your kid celery sticks type thing.
Got Kids Playing Two Sports? - Need to Optimizing Energy September 6, 2005

Two kids, soccer and cross country, and problems keeping them fed enough during the fall athletic season. This book helps to identify the best bang-for-the-buck nutritious foods to keep them energized and performing. It details optimum schedules for the pregame/practice as well as post game/practice meals, snacks and hydration. The recipes are contrary to the typical American diet, and so what else is new? Now that they know what complex and simple carbs are and how they affect their levels of energy, at least they know the ice cream for post practice/game recovery isn't the best alternative. At least they are giving the bean dishes a try because they know that they are one of the best nutrient dense foods. The recipes are surprisingly good and I'm going to try more on my kids and expand their horizons.
A good book to use when you are trying to get 3000 calories/day into your children. The school lunch probably isn't going to cut it on game or meet days.
