The instructional materials section contains information on: (1) sports-nutrition essentials; (2) fitness assessment and conditioning; (3) nutrition and athletic performance; and (4) nutrition-fitness assessment skills training. A directory provides information on how to obtain nutrition and fitness education materials, audiovisual aids, and nutrition-fitness assessment tools. The reference section lists resources used to develop the kit. Additional reference information is appended, including suggestions for classroom activities; sample high-carbohydrate daily food game-plans; a chart of recommended dietary allowances (RDA) for adolescents; a Cooperative Extension Service (Arizona University, College of Agriculture) publication on nutrition and fitness; tables containing the nutritive value of foods; and a sports-nutrition posttest, with answer key.
