Featuring insights from over 60 professional athletes, detailed macronutrient strategies, and 60+ recipes, this bestseller empowers athletes to optimize strength, recovery, and endurance without meat, eggs, or dairy. ## Description INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER The only research-based sports nutrition guide for connecting a plant-based diet with peak athletic performance, featuring interviews with professional athletes who've made the switch from meat to plants. The Plant-Based Athlete by Matt Frazier and Robert Cheeke reveals the incontrovertible proof that the human body does not need meat, eggs, or dairy to be strong. Instead, research shows that a consciously calibrated plant-based diet offers the greatest possible athletic recovery times, cell oxidation, injury prevention, and restorative sleep, and allows athletes to train more effectively, with better results. However, committing to a plant-based diet as an elite athlete, first-time marathoner, or weekend warrior isn't as simple as swapping vegetables for meat. Even the slightest food adjustments can impact performance. That's why Matt Frazier, founder of No Meat Athlete, and Robert Cheeke, founder of Vegan Bodybuilding and Fitness, wrote this groundbreaking book to guide those interested in making this important shift in how to do so with the best, most transformative results.
