The Cycling Chef: Recipes for Performance and Pleasure
Autor Alan Murchisonen Limba Engleză Hardback – 7 mar 2019
'I can't think of a finer chef to have written a book on nutrition and diet for athletes' - Tom Kerridge
A must-have recipe book designed for cyclists of all levels, written by Alan Murchison - a Michelin-starred chef and champion athlete who now cooks for British Cycling's elite athletes. His easy-to-make and nutritionally balanced meals will help cyclists reach their cycling performance goals - this is flavoursome food to make you go faster.
The Cycling Chef features more than 65 mouth-watering recipes - including breakfasts, salads, main meals, desserts and snacks, as well as vegetarian and vegan dishes - each designed with busy cyclists in mind. They are all quick and easy to prepare, and are made from ingredients that are readily available in any local supermarket.
A good diet won't make a sub-standard cyclist into a world beater, but a poor diet can certainly make a world class or any ambitious cyclist sub-standard. However, an optimised diet, whatever your potential, will help you reach your own personal performance goals.

Recenzii
I can't think of a finer chef to have written a book on nutrition and diet for athletes... His drive and commitment to culinary precision is matched only by his passion and expertise.
Alan's dedication to competing at the highest level of sport combined with the creativity and skill of his cooking, make his approach to nutritional cooking nothing short of incredible.
Alan's food is simple, yet tasty and powerful. He's been a key component for my training and racing.
I suspect journalists would put Alan into the category of "marginal gains" that British Cycling is so famous for, but proper nutrition is a huge gain.
Alan Murchison has been pivotal in my transformation from knocking around for Top 10s at national level events to winning World Cups. A game changer.
As an athlete your priorities are; nutritional value, ease of cooking and taste. It takes real creativity, passion and a true understanding of the athletes needs to combine all these priorities, you don't have to compromise when you follow Alan's recipes.
Working with Alan has completely changed the way I think about food and opened my eyes to new ideas. Ingredients I would have previously discarded as boring now feature regularly in a balanced diet. Eating well no longer feels like a challenge or a sacrifice.
Alan's unique dual background as a world-class chef as well as a high-performance athlete, means he has an extraordinarily useful empathy to understand and relate to the specific nutritional needs of the sports performer... I would not hesitate to recommend this book to any athlete and of any ambition.
Al genuinely wants to change the way athletes prepare the very food that fuels their performance, and this book is a massive leap in that direction. If you want to fuel world-class performance, do yourself a favour and get the basics right. Train smart and eat smart. Start with this book.
Murchison's "buzzing bars" are bloody lovely.and a piece of cake to construct
Alan Murchison is an expert both in the saddle and in the kitchen.
Whether you're always in the saddle or a fair-weather cyclist, these tempting recipes are great for topping up your pedal power.
The Cycling Chef bristles with nutritionally balanced meals that also happen to be delicious . an excellent book that treads the tricky line between healthy, performance-orientated eating and deliciousness . a very welcome addition to the world of sports nutrition recipe books.
