Alex Hutchinson

Publishers:
HarperCollins (USA)
McClelland and Stewart (Canada)

"Cardio or Weights is must reading for any serious runner. While not a running guide per se, it contains more authoritative and easy-to-use training information than almost any other book. It answers all the big questions."
―Amby Burfoot, Editor at large, Runner's World Magazine, 1968 Boston Marathon winner

Award-winning journalist Alex Hutchinson writes the popular biweekly column "Jockology" for the Globe and Mail and is a contributing editor at Popular Mechanics. A former competitive long distance runner, Hutchinson has a Ph.D. in physics and spent time as a researcher for the U.S. National Security Agency. A National Magazine Award and National Newspaper Award winner, his work has appeared in the New York Times.

From the Publisher (McClelland and Stewart):
Written by award-winning journalist Alex Hutchinson, author of the Globe and Mail's popular column "Jockology," Sweat Science answers 150 questions about fitness and exercise, providing hype-free analysis of common ("Can I freeze my lungs by exercising in the cold?") and not-so-common ("Can swearing help me push harder in a workout?") fitness questions, bridging the gulf between exercisers and the scientists who study them. For example, have you ever wondered:

• Which is more important, cardio or weights?
• Can I get fit by exercising just a few minutes a week? [Answer: yes, sort of]
• Should I stretch before excercising? [Answer: actually, no]
• Can swearing help me push harder in a workout?

With advice on how to get started, cardio, strength, injury prevention, nutrition, and performance, Sweat Science is an informative, entertaining, and insightful guide to all the questions about exercise that have long intrigued researchers, fitness fanatics, and anyone who has ever taken up a sport or set foot in a gym.
