    <![CDATA[A state-of-the-art weight-lifting and nutritional blueprint for &quot;skinny&quot; guys who want to pack on muscleLet's face it, naturally skinny guys are at a distinct genetic disadvantage when it comes to building muscle mass. But with the proper advice, these &quot;hardgainers&quot; definitely can realize their fitness goals. In Scrawny to Brawny, the authors draw on their years of practical experience as private strength and nutrition coaches to provide hardgainers with:o A progressive, state-of-the-art program that optimizes results with shorter, less frequent workouts that maximize compound exerciseso A unique, action-based perspective on nutrition that shows how to prepare quick muscle-building meals and snacks-and how to take advantage of several critical times in the day when muscle growth can be stimulated by food intakeo Vital information on how to identify and fix any weak links in their physiques that may be precursors to injuryDesigned not only for frustrated adult hardgainers but also-with its strong anti-steroid message-a terrific book for the large teen market, Scrawny to Brawny fills a significant gap in the weight-lifting arsenal.]]>

You ll also learn some up-to-date techniques on how to enhance recovery through nutrition and supplementation. This book also recommends some products that can be used at various times to enhance performance while healthy nutrition is being applied. Most importantly, readers will learn how to use these nutritional strategies on a daily basis and have them translate into real results.     Below are the chapter titles    Chapter 1 - The Intersection What All Good Sports Nutrition Plans Should Accomplish     Chapter 2 - Nutrition Basics     Chapter 3 - The Super Foods     Chapter 4 - Workout and Competition Nutrition     Chapter 5 - Supplement Strategies     Chapter 6 - Sample Menus     Chapter 7 - Food and Weight Management    Chapter 8 - Cutting Weight    Chapter 9 - Get Your Head Straight    Chapter 10 - Whats Next  One of the neat things about this book is a summary at the end of each chapter that touches upon the main points covered.
