What if you didn't have to suffer through low-carb dieting to get lean? In fact, what if you could eat all the carbs you wanted? In short, what if I told you that proper dieting - whether you want to maximize fat loss or muscle growth - is much simpler and more enjoyable than you've been led to believe? Imagineeating delicious, filling meals every daynever feeling starved or stuffedhaving great energy levels and workoutsand watching your body respond exactly as you desire, dropping fat or adding muscle each and every week. Well, I have good news. When you know how to diet properly - and this doesn't mean learning to eat boiled chicken and raw broccoli six times per day - getting lean and muscular becomes simple, convenient, and dare I sayenjoyable. And imagine finally understanding how proper dieting really works, never again falling for the BS, tricks, and gimmicks pushed by "gurus" and other shysters. And this book will show you the way.
"Great-tasting, SIMPLE recipes for the busy family. Want to be a commercial chef? Go to culinary school." according to Adam D. Koos. Contrary to some of the poor reviews that reference the lack of creativity in the recipes, I'm not a bachelor and I have two kids. I'm also an entrepreneur and between my sometimes failed attempts at being a great husband, father, and employer, I've never made the time to cook. So with that said, I personally don't need elaborate recipes with sexy garnishes. In addition, I don't enjoy prep, cooking, or clean-up. For all those reasons, I love this book. I went thru it and highlighted the best-looking recipes with the shortest prep time. I throw the ingredients on Wunderlist (on a grocery list shared with my wife), she d. "Needs another round of editing." according to Jamie. I like that these are high-protein recipes, but I'm not sure if I can trust the recipes. After flipping through, I settled in making the no-bake matcha green tea fudge bars first. I bought the almond milk and almond butter (already had matcha). Then, I realized that the recipe leaves out the quantity of matcha and protein powder that are supposed to be added. I could probably wing it and make something work, but it's not a good sign for the rest of the cookbook. I'll probably have to recalculate all the nutrition info so I can trust it.. "A great book for novice's in the kitchen" according to Amazon Customer. A great book with very simplistic and easy to follow instructions. The recipes taste great and there is a lot of variety to keep you from getting bored. Awesome book for a young bachelor who knows absolutely nothing about cooking. Also has great recommendations on how to meet your caloric goals for training. Highly recommended!
