Hail to the Dinosaurs!
I receive many questions from readers
asking about the best foods for gaining
muscular bodyweight.
Or for post workout recovery.
Or for a pre-workout power blast.
So, to save time, I'm going to talk
about something thing that will do
all of the above. It definitely
ranks as super food -- in fact,
it's probably the VERY BEST
thing that a serious lifter can eat.
No, it's not steak and eggs.
Not steak and potatoes.
And it's not the dreaded and
dreadful Get Big Drink.
This is something that not only
is good for you -- but something
that tastes good as well.
Here it is:
A special combination of milk, eggs,
and cream to give you a full day's
supply of power-packed protein and
high quality fats. And the protein
content is top quality. All the
amino acids on the amino acids
chart, and probably some that the
scientists haven't yet identified.
You can't beat milk and egg protein.
It's combined with just the right
amount of high quality carbs for
energy and optimum protein sparing.
It's naturally high in vitamins
and minerals, and loaded with
trace elements. And you can
add fruit and double or
even triple the vitamin
content.
And you'll be pleased to know
that it's inexpensive and
easy to find. If you know
your way around the kitchen,
you can even make it yourself.
By now, I'm sure you've guessed
I'm talking about that old
standby for serious lifters:
NEW YORK CHEESECAKE.
It's the very best thing a
lifter can eat.
Try one or two for breakfast and
see for yourself -- or carry a
few slices around and munch on
them throughout the day for a
continuous protein pump.
Have half a cheesecake before
your workout, and another half
a cheesecake 30 minutes after
your workout.
For weight gaining, double the
suggested dosages.
And yes, for an extra blast of
high octane super-nutrition, add
bacon!
Oh, and one more thing -- it is
indeed April 1st.
Thanks for reading, and have a
great day. If you train today, make
it a good one!
Yours in strength,
Brooks Kubik
P.S. If that cheesecake advice sounds
familiar, it is. I borrowed it from
Dr. Ken Leistner, who ran various
versions of the article in the April
issue of Powerlifting USA for many
years.
And every time he ran it, readers would
write in and ask, "What kind of cheese-
cake is best for increasing my squat?"
P.S. 2. In all seriousness, if you want
to gain tons of strength and muscle,
skip the cheesecake -- but grab
