'James's pioneering use of food as fuel has transformed players' performances - and now he can do the same for you.' - Arsène Wenger OBE The secret of the sports elite - and how you can eat to win in your life World-leading sports nutritionist James Collins shapes the eating habits of Olympic athletes and Premier League footballers, so they are on peak form when it counts. After a decade of working with the likes of Arsenal FC, England Football and Team GB, now he's distilling his elite sports success into simple food principles that any of us can follow to feel at our best in our daily lives. Peak performance is all about energy and how to eat and exercise right for your body and your routine. By following The Energy Plan, you will learn how to fuel your body for your life, power through the 4pm slump and resist the junk foods that drag you down.

You'll feel more productive, sleep well, lose unwanted weight and avoid illness. Forget fasting and low carb diets. The Energy Plan is a whole new mindset that will forever change your relationship with food, exercise and your body, giving you a winning edge in everything that you do.

Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Liverpool FC & England 'This isn't a diet book, it's a guide to new ways of thinking and the science is easy to digest.' - Daily Express 'Who wouldn't want to jump out of bed early in the morning with vigour or get to the end of the day without feeling like the walking dead?

Much more goes into a successful strength training program than reps and load. How one thinks, breathes, eats, drinks, and sleeps has just as much impact on a person’s vitality as how one moves. Indeed, failing to get the biochemistry right dooms even the best exercise prescription to failure. While most others treat the athlete as though the musculoskeletal system functions as an island. Andrew’s approach is Holistic—inclusive of all key systems of the body & mind. Holistic Strength Training for Triathlon will teach the reader what is often neglected in both their pursuit of wellness and their pursuit of a place on the podium.
