<p>If you&#8217;re sick and tired of walking onto the field and playing in a body that gets squashed like a Ford Pinto, change your habits and eat big to get your Abrams Tank armor upgrade.</p>
<p>Listen, training is only half the battle. If you don&#8217;t supply your body with the best &#8220;construction material&#8221; (i.e. food) you&#8217;ll never get the armor upgrade you desire. If you show up to workouts with zero nutritional habits, you might as well stay at home and pick a different activity. Eating to add size is a job!</p>
<p>This 116-page, no-nonsense, nutrition guide is loaded with research, meal plans, grocery lists, case studies, recipes, and strategies designed to help you add size while simultaneously improving performance through a sound strength &#038; conditioning program. Some of what you&#8217;ll find inside is:</p>
<ul>
<li>How good food choices and nutritional timing can simulate the benefits of &#8220;anabolic steroids&#8221;</li>
<li>Why breakfast is the most important &#8220;muscle meal&#8221; of the day</li>
<li>How skipping meals will keep you &#8220;scrawny&#8221;</li>
<li>How to employ your &#8220;construction&#8221; cells to work overnight to build your body as you sleep</li>
<li>How muscle shakes can &#8220;kick start&#8221; the growth and repair process during workouts</li>
</ul>
<p>And way, way, way more&#8230;</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s be real, high school sports like football are dangerous. You compete against athletes who are &#8220;juiced up&#8221; and intent on hurting you. We designed this nutrition guide to protect you. As you&#8217;ll find out, there are safer and healthier alternatives to drugs that will keep you on the field longer and make you just as strong (if not stronger) than the &#8220;cheaters&#8221; out there.</p>

<p>Register for our email newsletter on the right hand side of the screen to get updates on the eBook, webinar, and other bonuses we&#8217;re throwing in the mix. &#8212;&#8211;&gt;</p>
<p>Playing high school sports is akin to going to war. Every time you step across the lines, you&#8217;re in for the fight of your life&#8230; why not surprise your opponents next year, and show up in a body built like a tank?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;ve made the connection recently that an athlete&#8217;s workout tempo and how they spend their time between workout sets is an indicator of athleticism. When I observe athletes who have lean and muscular physiques they almost always seem to hop around the weight room stretching and moving between sets. In contrast, the athletes who have a &#8220;softer&#8221; look always seem to drag their way through a workout and often get penalized for sitting down. </p>
<p>When examining performance data, the athletes who have &#8220;hyper-tempo&#8221; (a word I&#8217;m coining) all test in the top 95% on the vertical jump, 10-yard dash, 20-yard shuttle and pull-up rep test. </p>
<p>It&#8217;s my belief that more factors come into play when talking about slow workout tempo (like nutrition status &#038; personal stress outside the facility), but if it becomes habitual an athletes&#8217; body doesn&#8217;t look or respond the same, often times exhibiting what I call the &#8220;drag effect.&#8221; </p>
<p>Educating my athletes on optimal nutrition, hydration, supplementation and mental focus while &#8220;in-training&#8221; has become a priority. Some have made the necessary changes and seen the results, but for others being &#8220;chill&#8221; is just a way of life. Unfortunately, their athletic window also seems to be closing. </p>
<p>Bottom line, athletes who want results &#8220;get after it,&#8221; even when they&#8217;re resting. </p>
