By Tony on August 7, 2009
This book is packed with lots of helpful advice. The author dispells many of the myths and fads surrounding nutrician and getting fit and replaces them with sound, common-sense, practical, effective and time-conscious advice. If you're serious about climbing, then this is a must read.
