In Fitness and in Health
Categories: Health, Fitness & Dieting
In Fitness and in Health is a guide by clinician and coach Philip Maffetone to building aerobic fitness, eating well and managing stress, drawn from his work with endurance athletes and patients. Maffetone explains his heart-rate-based approach to training, built around a simple formula for finding a maximum aerobic heart rate, and argues that building an aerobic base prevents injury and burnout. He links fitness with diet, carbohydrate intolerance and stress, offering ways to test and adjust each.
