A journalist who many iconic athletes have trusted to tell their stories (of both triumph and disgrace), Jim has had unprecedented access to the people, places, and extraordinary events in the world of sports. Asking tough but fair questions, he has broken numerous stories, and landed squarely in the middle of others, from the Ben Johnson and Barry Bonds steroid scandals, to Michael Jordan’s surprise retirement, to the off-the-court Kobe/Shaq feud which led to their on-the-court break up, to being part of the live broadcast for 22 Super Bowls.

Whether you are seeing a doctor, a nutritionist, or a trainer, all of them advise eating more protein. Foods, drinks, and supplements are loaded with extra protein. Many people use protein for weight control while others believe it gives them more energy. Now, weight loss expert Dr. Garth Davis asks, "Is all this protein making us healthier?" The answer, he emphatically argues, is no.

For Beginners
As a two year vegan, I struggled to finish the book. It is extremely repetitive and the information discussed is widely available on the internet.
The book states facts though and I feel it is intended for new comers to the vegan ways.

Great perspectives in the plant based exercise world!
This book is a refreshing look at so many amazing plant based athletes and how they fuel. I really had no idea that a fully plant based diet was the foundation of SO MANY record holding athletes. I’m no competitor, just against myself, and I’ve been plant based for many years. And I will listen to this a second, third, and forth time and probably but the hard copy. This book is jam packed with info about what and how people fuel, includes recipes, and to top it off, is narrated really well. Totally worth owning and sharing!
