‘The Colour-Fit Method’, which was published at the end of last month, describes how to identify, choose and then create meals depending upon your fitness goals.
Little, who took up his role at Bramall Lane earlier this summer, told The Star: “My young lad helped give me the idea. I was working on ways to try and make the whole process really intuitive, by using different colours and icons to illustrate the thinking behind it.

Little hopes his concept, which has already been adopted by Premier League clubs, Wales’ rugby union stars and soccer players in Australia, will now catch on among the general public.
“Genuinely, sometimes footballers can have worse diets that folk in the street,” he explained. “Often, they’re quite affluent and so they can eat out often and not necessarily the right things.”
“The process behind this is to show which meals are suitable for you, depending upon what your goals are. It makes it really simple.
