How good food can help achieve fitness - from Michel Roux Jr, chef at Le Gavroche.
This cookbook is for anyone interested in getting fit - intermittently at the gym, running for fun, as a training sportsman or woman, or as a serious marathon runner. These recipes were developed by Michel Roux Jr as he started running, initially as a casual jogger 10 years ago, and now as a veteran of 8 marathons.
Michel developed the programme by trial and error, based on how his body feels and reacts to what he eats. While training he largely avoids red meat and animal fats, eats lots of fish, fruit and vegetables, some chocolate, plenty of bread and a reasonable quantity of wine. Some of the recipes have become regulars at Michel's La Gavroche restaurant.
