The Alternative to Drugs Steroids Wacky Diets and Everything Else Thats Failed
Steve Michalik

World-famous bodybuilder Steve Michalik - Mr. America - has put a lifetime of knowledge and skill into his powerful new book ATOMIC FITNESS. His extensive background of accomplishments and experience have led him to develop the concept for his Atomic Fitness System which utilised the basic theories of physics - energy matter space and time (reducing time and space and increasing energy will affect mass he says) to help people change their physiques in the shortest time possible. Part one of this lavishly illustrated book lays out Mr. America's personally developed theories. His easy-to-understand exercises start with preconditioning routines to provide a foundation of optimum fitness levels for the real work to follow and they progress from the beginning intermediate and advanced to super-advanced routines. Sections on abdominals hips and the bum are included in the exercises intended to create the ultimate physique. The author believes it's not the length of time or the amount of exercise that count it's the intensity of effort that improves an exercise and makes it successful. More is not better he says - hard work in brief intensive training sessions is what produces the best possible results from exercise. Part two takes up the body's basic anatomy and explores the role of nutrition in depth. This is followed by selected recipes for maximum benefits to the body testimonials from people he has helped a glossary of nutrition terms several appendices and a full index. Throughout this information-packed book the author's positive approach exhorts the reader to think do and be the absolute best possible.

NUTRIENT TIMING £12.99
NUTRIENT TIMING
The Future of Sports Nutrition
John Ivy and Robert Portman

If you are serious about weight training, you have probably experienced the 'plateau phenomenon'. You train harder, you consume extra protein in your diet but you just don't get the strength and power gains that you want. For the last ten years sports nutrition has focused on what to eat. The latest research from leading sports science labs now shows that when you eat may be even more important. NUTRIENT TIMING adds the missing dimension to sports nutrition, the dimension of time. By timing specific nutrition to your muscles' 24 hour growth cycle, you can activate your body's natural anabolic agents to increase muscle growth and gain greater muscle mass than you ever thought possible. NUTRIENT TIMING is the biggest advance in sports nutrition in over a decade.

By applying the principles of the Nutrient Timing System you'll be able to deliver the precise amounts of nutrients needed at precisely the right time to optimise your muscle building agents and maximise muscle growth, while minimising muscle damage and soreness after a hard workout. You'll even be less susceptible to colds. You can actually sculpt a better body with more lean muscle mass, less fat and more power without changing your exercise programme or even your total caloric intake. NUTRIENT TIMING will show you how.
