Allen Lim left the lab to work with pro cyclists, he found athletes weary of processed bars and gels and the same old pasta. Biju Thomas and Allen Lim know this, as they've been working with professional cyclists for many years, and have developed a wide range of on-the-go recipes for ride nutrition, with a thorough grounding in the science of nutrition to back it up. D. and chef Biju Thomas, authors of The Feed Zone cookbooks, have spent decades working with endurance athletes to find the balance between taste, sport-specific nutrition, and portability. Rice cakes, baked eggs, cookies, and waffles pack in the nutrition you need without the taste fatigue and queasy stomach that follow a fistful of sports bars and gels. Each real food recipe is simple, delicious, easy to make—and ready to go on your next ride, run, climb, or hike.

Anyone who's been around the pro peloton at the start of a race will know that it's not just bars and gels that the riders tuck into their pockets: there are almost as many different foil-wrapped homemade snack choices out there as there are riders, some of whom have even been known to swap food with other teams on the go to get hold of stuff they prefer from a different team chef. Allen Lim and Chef Biju Thomas debut 75 portable foods that taste great, are digested quickly, and help you perform at your best. Feed Zone Portables offers 75 all-new, easy, healthy recipes for portable snacks that taste great during exercise. The start of the book is concerned with how in-ride nutrition works, and how to get the best from it.
