Feed Zone Portables offers 75 all-new, easy, healthy recipes for
portable snacks that taste great during exercise.
When Dr. Allen Lim left the lab to work with pro cyclists, he found
athletes weary of processed bars and gels and the same old pasta. So Lim
joined professional chef Biju Thomas to make eating delicious and
practical. When the menu changed, no one could argue with the race
results. Their groundbreaking Feed Zone Cookbook brought the favorite
recipes of the pros to everyday athletes.
In their new cookbook Feed Zone Portables, Chef Biju and Dr. Lim offer
75 all-new portable food recipes for cyclists, runners, triathletes,
mountain bikers, climbers, hikers, and backpackers. Each real food
recipe is simple, delicious during exercise, easy to make--and ready to
go on your next ride, run, climb, hike, road trip, or sporting event.
Feed Zone Portables expands on the most popular features of The Feed
Zone Cookbook with more quick and easy recipes for athletes, beautiful
full-color photographs of every dish, complete nutrition data, tips on
why these are the best foods for athletes, and time-saving ways on how
to cook real food every day.
In his introduction to Feed Zone Portables, Dr. Lim shows why real
food is a more easily digestible, higher-performance source of energy
than prepackaged fuel products. He shows how much athletes really need
to eat and drink at different exercise intensities and in cold or hot
weather. Because the body burns solid and liquid foods differently, Lim
defines a new approach for athletes to drink for hydration and eat real
food for energy.
