Rated 8 out of 10 Maximum Muscle, Minimum Fat By Author Ori Hofmekler Reviewed by Elizabeth Kennedy, Vice President, Modern Warrior(r) My favorite three things about this lifestyle plan: 1) Coffee (used properly) helps burn fat. 2) A very cold rinse after a hot shower helps burn fat. 3) You can eat anything you want, including a fried banana crème cheesecake burrito for dessert when you follow this plan. This book shows first and foremost one thing: The body is a MIRACULOUS engine, exquisitely balanced for maximum efficiency. As you read about how hormones, enzymes, cellular factors and nutrients work together to keep the body functioning, you can’t help but be amazed at the wonder of the human body, and the beauty of “Mother Nature.” I interviewed Mr. Hofmekler, the author and found him to be passionate about sharing the combined wisdom he’s accumulated over the years – from scientists, researchers, and his own dedicated efforts to learn about how to tweak the body for peak efficiency. This book is a challenge to read. It’s only 124 pages (the e-version) before the references and the index, but those 124 pages are packed with biology and chemistry, and peppered with common sense, practical tips for implementing this lifestyle plan, and suggestions for optimizing your own health, based on your needs. I asked Ori for the top 5 things that he wanted readers to walk away with, and he said “Five is too many. There is only one: It’s not what you eat and how you exercise, it’s when and how often. If you follow a proper feeding cycle and exercise correctly, you will take advantage of your own instinct and hunger to accelerate exercise-related fat burning and growth effects, and naturally select the proper foods you need for maximum satisfaction and health. You will follow your biological destiny.” And like Occam’s Razor teaches us, the simplest, most practical solution is usually the right one. The Warrior Diet lifestyle plan, as described in Maximum Muscle, Minimum Fat, cuts to the chase; it is simple, yet elegant. I won’t say it’s an easy lifestyle to get used to – it takes time, patience, discipline, as do any changes we make in our lives – but it is worthwhile. As a follower of this lifestyle plan for 18 months, it works for me, and can work for you too. In fact, it’s now working for many of my friends, colleagues and students, too, because you can adapt the plan to your needs- it’s user friendly! If you’re serious about gaining muscle, losing fat, and re-shaping your body, this no-nonsense guide will show you how, using a recommended feeding cycle and exercise, you can achieve it plus optimum health and satisfaction. -EAK Liz Kennedy - New York Instinctive eating w/immediate benefits Rated 8 out of 10 This new book from Ori jumps right into the science behind the ‘Warrior Diet’. I highly recommend this book to anyone looking to improve their health, those sick of feeding the mainstream way, and doubters of the beneficial effects of under eating and over eating. Not only will you learn how to trigger instant and long lasting growth in your body, you’ll uncover methods for developing ‘super muscle’. A must read for those willing to look beyond today’s ‘standard’ eating styles. Pietro Puzzuoli - Brampton, ON Canada Excellent resource for nutrition.
