Myself & John were talking about this the other day & I just came across this. Noth gone through the page yet but will & there's a chance to have a look inside the book to get a general sense of what its about.

Ive been talking to mark about nutrition having it aimed at strength but trying to limit fat gain

His remarks are, no carbs 3 hours before training, somthing to do with fat mobilisation or somthing, within half hour have some and then non in evening
The carbs from early in in the day fuel you then limit the later, just make sure protein is at 2.5g per kg

He did say however a runner would need them as there burning them off
