Synopsis:

The author of The Warrior Diet shares his revolutionary approach to physical transformation, offering practical guidance on how to build and maintain a leaner, stronger, and healthier body
 
Diet and fitness books appear at a dizzying rate—and with a wealth of dubious claims—in a culture facing increasing health problems based on a sedentary lifestyle. Ori Hofmekler’s Maximum Muscle, Minimum Fat pulls out of the pack by focusing on the biological principles that dictate muscle gain and fat loss. Written for the widest readership—competitive athletes, bodybuilders, trainers, martial artists, sports nutritionists and coaches, dieters, and anyone concerned about their health—the book builds on the concepts popularized in The Warrior Diet.

In simple lay terms, Hofmekler how under-eating and fasting can trigger an anabolic switch that stimulates growth and rejuvenation; how to re-engineer the body at the cellular level to burn fat and build muscles; and how to naturally manipulate the body’s hormones for rapid muscle fusion and faster fat breakdown. He offers smart strategies for:

• Taking advantage of hunger to stimulate growth, burn fat, and boost brain power
• Turning insulin into a muscle builder instead of a fat gainer
• Shattering training and diet plateaus
• Improve metabolic function, performance, and your capacity to gain and sustain prime health
 
Challenging most common diet and fitness concepts, Maximum Muscle, Minimum Fat provides a revolutionary way of looking at human performance, shedding new light on how the muscle and fat tissues operate and offering practical information on how to achieve optimal physical health.
