  • Strength Training: Sports Nutrition - Using Cheat Meals, Not Days, to Keep Your Cravings in Check - I have found when corresponding with many gym goers and fitness enthusiasts, that there is a massive disconnect in what they say and practice depending on the day of the week.

Eating in this manner is about as effective as World War 2 Carpet Bombing runs. The problem is inaccuracy. (I like the name “The Carpet Bombing Diet.” Hmmm...I think I see a book in the making!) In my opinion it’s become a dangerous “half-truth” because it’s only half of the picture. What does eat big mean? Do you follow the aforementioned See Food Diet and eat anything and everything? And by get Big, what exactly gets big?

Part 1 - Everywhere you look, it’s either the best supplements to get ripped, or top foods to max muscle gains – it seems like eating to boost health and performance simultaneously isn’t important, isn’t possible or it’s simply too boring to talk about. Don’t become another victim to eating just for looks and performance. It’s very important to eat the right foods for the right reasons, and staying healthy is definitely one of those reasons. Remember, if you aren’t healthy, everything you’re working towards, and all the training you’ve done means nothing. Let me explain.
