Good Basic Information.

This book thought me a lot about supplements and the way they work in your body.

Great book, but understand what it is for...

I bought this book before it was generally released at a seminar Dr. Columbu held in early 1985 in Seattle. I was heavily into bodybuilding at the time and it was really a revelation. It is 25 years later now and this book still is as useful now as it was then.

However, most people do not understand what this book is for. It is not for pre-competition bodybuilders. It is for off competition bodybuilding. The nutritional requirements are quite different for the two types of bodybuilding.

If you are interested in understanding how your body works with the various nutrients it needs, then this is the book for you. If you are looking for a book that will take you to the next level or prepare you for your next competition, then you should look elsewhere.

In fact, even when I first read the book, I found Dr. Columbu's title to be limiting. The real title should be, "The Athlete's Nutrition Book". That is how useful this book is. Any athlete who is interested in a great, basic, no BS approach to good nutrition should read this book and take out of it what meets their particular needs.

I have given copies of this book to friends many times and highly recommend it!

Review-Bodyuilder's Nutrition Book

This is a good book. Franco goes into detail about supplements and what each of them do and how they are of advantage to a bodybuilder. This is old school, but there's still plenty of good info here.

Great simple and informative book

I have read a lot of book on nutrition for athlets.
This one has exceeded my expectation.
Very symple to understand and " back to the basic" type of approach.
