Eat to Climb by Mina Leslie-Wujastyk is a comprehensive guide to nutrition for climbers. Whether you're a weekend warrior or a seasoned pro, this book will help you cut through the noise of nutrition fads and make informed, confident decisions about fuelling your body. The book is split into two sections principles and methods. Principles explores the foundations of nutrition: energy intake, macronutrients, micronutrients, hydration and supplements. You'll gain a clear understanding of how protein, fat and carbohydrates support training, performance and recovery along with insight into key vitamins and minerals, fluid intake requirements and ergogenic aids. The methods section shows you how to apply these principles in real life, with a focus on flexibility and autonomy. Specific chapters look at crag nutrition, injury recovery, weight loss, intuitive eating and the specific needs of female climbers. Throughout, you'll find powerful insights from top climbers. From Shauna Coxsey's honest account of her struggles with food as a young athlete, to Molly Thompson-Smith's diligent approach to nutrition when injured, and Billy Ridal's tactics for eating when he freed the Nose on El Cap, their stories bring the science to life. Today's climbers increasingly recognise that long-term performance isn't built on calorie restriction or the chronic search for lightness. And as a community we can all be healthier, stronger and get more from our climbing as we learn to eat to climb. AUTHOR: Mina Leslie-Wujastyk has been climbing for 30 years and has a keen interest in everything to do with our sport. She qualified as a physiotherapist in her early 20s but instead pursued a career as a professional climber thanks to support from her sponsors at that time. She has climbed all over the world, both on rock and in bouldering competitions for the GB Climbing team at many world cups; she was ranked ninth in the world for women's bouldering in 2013. However, climbing outside has always been closest to her heart. Mina has sport climbed up to F8c and bouldered up to Font 8b. In 2017, she studied a foundational course to become certified as a nutritionist, followed by a further two years in postgraduate study of sports nutrition under the International Olympic Committee. Alongside this she is certified as an intuitive eating counsellor. Mina has worked solo and has also supported clients with nutrition services at Lattice Training, the world's leading climbing coaching company. In 2024, she published her first paper in the Journal of Science in Sport and Exercise which focused on nutrition for female climbers. Mina lives in the Peak District with her husband David Mason and their two children.
