Achieving your best body ever requires that two elements merge as one: solid training and good nutrition. This book provides the nutritional component of that muscle-bulding equation, offering the Men’s Health take on food for fitness. Men’s Health Muscle Chow gives you more than 150 simple recipes for delicious meals ranging from workout protein shakes to healthy dinners the whole family will enjoy. Inside, you’ll find: - Eight easy-to-remember dietary strategies to keep your eating habits in line
- Filling breakfasts like Banana Protein Pancakes; energizing entres including Muscle-Bound Chili and Mahi Fish Wraps; hunger-killing snacks such as Malted Almond Bombs; even desserts like Key Lime Pie—all designed to help burn fat and build muscle
- A shopping list that makes it easy to stock up on essential ingredients and kitchen tools
- A troubleshooting guide for guys with more experience at the gym than in the kitchen
- Insider strategies, tips, tricks of the trade
And Men’s Health Muscle Chow is much more than just a cookbook. It offers a solid foundation for understanding meal timing and the effects nutrients have on your body. Author Gregg Avedon also outlines his program of 2-month diet cycles that help you set and reach your fitness goals.

 MUSCLE CHEW December 27, 2008
I accidentally ordered two, gave the other one away to a friend, whom raved about the book. I have two reservations about some of the recipes. Did anybody check these recipes out in a test kitchen? Reason I ask is some of the recipes leave out ingredients or don't tell you where to put the ingredient in or the recipe doesn't turn out right. Some not enough 'wet' ingredients for batter consistency. But this is all forgiveable because there are some really great recipes: Eggplant Lasagna (pg 142), Tarragon Chicken with Vegetables (83), Hearty Oatmeal'n'Bran (107), Eggs'n'Oats (107), Muscle Toast (42), Avocado Breakfast (38), Giant Scramble - I added asparagus (101), Tuna in Celery Stalks - I'll never make tuna the 'other way' again (209), Zucchini pasta (133). A hint for the Muscle Toast, which is like 'French Toast', make up all the soakings of the bread first before frying. I found more bread is needed than the recipe calls for, which is gr8! I freeze leftovers and warm later in the toaster. Last BAD comment, which leaves no excuse, the book is falling apart, terrible binding job, Rodale! Other books I'd recommend using with this: ABs diet books series by David Zinczenko - responsible for me losing 120 pounds. 'Powerfoods' Nutrition Plan by Susan Kleiner, addresses men's health and is a great resource/reference guide. I'm learning alot from it. 'The Portable Personal Trainer' by Eric Harr, daily devotional 'health' inspirations. 'Pilates for Men' by Daniel Lyons Jr., 'Anatomy Stretching' by Arnold Nelson, 'Powersculpt for Men' by Paul Frediani (CORE-lots of exercise ball illustrations and included DVD) OT: 'Deep Survival' by Laurence Gonzales - get a bicycle and don't forget the helmet!

Excellent book compiled by someone who knows both fitness & nutrition. Very good read with practical suggestions for properly fitting nutrition into fitness workouts.
You have to try this! October 6, 2008
Muscle Chow is the best cook book that I have ever purchased. The meals in this book are easy to cook up. It provides step by step explanations on how to make each meal, along with an effective program you can follow that ensures your muscles get what they need. If your going to purchase a cook book for your muscles, this is it.

This is an awesome book that gives REALISTIC information on health and fitness. I origionally bought this book becuase I wanted to impress our personal trainer friend with some yummy recipes that were also healthy, however I soon realized this book is much more then just recipes, it is filled with so much more useful information then I had originally bargained for! This book helped me learn what to eat and when to eat it so I stay looking and feeling my best. I have already noticed a change in my appearance after a few weeks of purchasing this book and that is WITHOUT rigerous cardio workouts- it's just eting better, walking a little further then usual and weight training!
