Rating:  - Very good basics
I was very interested in checking this book out once I first saw it. My background in is Dietetics and Sports Physiology so I was curious to see what was said.

Rating: - grappler's guide to sports nutrition
I learned a lot from this book. within the first day I started changing my diet around. I always eat healthy but this gave me some new info and ideas. I would def recommend this book. I am not a wrestler but I do brazilian jiu jitsu. but it helps a lot.

This is a book for people who want to be serious wrestlers, boxers, mixed martial artists or involved in any other type of combat sports. so before you go and spend the worthy price above, think to yourself if your going to be serious ...
