 With my book, you will have a new understanding of what I mean when I say "muscle". Muscle is more than the triceps, biceps and abs that immediately come to mind. Muscle is about preventing disease. It is about coordination, balance, agility, and staying active. In short, muscle is about all those qualities we equate to youth, such as endurance, energy and relatively easy weight management and it is the backbone of my six-week Feed Muscle, Shrink Fat Diet program. Fueling your muscle cells through nutrition and exercise helps you achieve an ideal weight and optimum fitness levels for life!
