Nutrient Timing


I just finished reading the book, "Nutrient Timing". If you are serious about weight training, you need to read this gem. This book is written by Dr. John Ivy, and Dr. Robert Portman, so the science is solid. As the book says, "By applying the principles of Nutrient Timing, you will be able to deliver the precise amounts of nutrients needed to optimize your muscle-building agents and maximize muscle growth, while minimizing muscle damage and soreness after a workout."

The article presented here is a summary of the book. Many personal trainers, and health care professionals would benefit from this article if they do not have time to read a 212 page book. Although the article was geared toward the swimmer, it is a great summary of the book.
