I'll start with this: I am a firefighter, not a bodybuilder or extreme athlete. So, I do NOT make a lot of money. Your average parking meter makes more than I do, as a matter of fact. I also never cooked once before joining the fire service. Plus I come from a Mexican upbringing, so you can imagine the food I am used to eating.I bought this book mainly because I wanted a good cookbook so I could learn some cooking skills along with some healthy dishes. I am a pretty avid reader of Men's Health, and after reading Greg's columns I finally caved in and bought the book. This book is very greatly organized and gives some great tips for anyone who IS looking to increase muscle mass, or things like that. (such as tips on creatine intake) Now, it is also organized so it can also be a great resource for someone who just wants to get leaner or just wants to eat cleaner. The book starts by telling you that this book is also a diet program, which works in three phases. This program basically works by starting your diet nice and easy and then restricting it more and more throughout the workout program. By the most restricted phase of the program, you can only eat foods labeled "Ripped" in the book. And as I thumbed through the book, I thought to myself, "The ripped phase is gonna suck. There doesn't seem to be many recipes that you can eat in this phase."Well it turned it around on me when I really focused on the chapters. There are a great amount of options you can choose from for this phase and they all ROCK! Not too mention, the Ripped phase is only for 2 weeks! Now, let me clear this up even more: there are three phases to this program. They are:Relaxed: 1 WeekLean: 5 WeeksRipped: 2 Weeks.In the fire station, we usually never eat earlier than 11 PM. And even for me, the program was VERY easy to handle! I never got bored, or aggravated with repetitive recipes. My personal favorite recipe was the avocado toast. It is fantastic! My commitment was there, and I was sick of making excuses. If you have the same, this plan is EASY! Granted, you have enough money of course, which brings me to my next point.Greg gives you two shopping lists in the book: one for ingredients and another for tools and utensils. ANYBODY who has ever been in a grocery store will tell you: Eating healthy is EXPENSIVE! Some of these ingredients are actually not very expensive at places like a Wal-mart or Costco. But finding things like organic ingredients can be a pretty big chore. I am lucky enough to have a store that provides these close-by but it can get quite expensive. But honestly, the shopping lists save you quite a bit of money if you go into a grocery store blindly looking for healthy foods. I didn't see this until further down the road.Now, for my last point. You're not a huge fitness enthusiast? Neither am I! I hate counting calories like bodybuilders do. Greg made it VERY easy to balance out your meals for max effectiveness. The beginning of the book gives some priceless tips on general health, supplements, meal timing, what to eat more of and what to eat less of, etc. So even if you do not plan on following the diet like I did, the tips and recipes are worth it alone. I passed the book on to a fellow fireman because of his high cholesterol. Withing something like two months, he was a cardio machine. He did not follow the diet like I did, so the results were not as dramatic, but they were still awesome. Now I have the entire firehouse stealing recipes for our dinner from the Muscle Chow book. Trust me, that says a lot!In closing, what do you have to lose? The book is inexpensive and if you have trouble with affording the ingredients, just save for a while and you will see it was worth it in the long run with all the stuff you learn. Especially if you don't know the 1st thing about cooking. Try it and stick with it. You'll see what I saw. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars Solid info inside typical Men's Health write-up *by L***M on Reviewed in the United States on March 22, 2010* This is a decent book. It's written like a Men's Health mag, so if you don't like that "voice" then you won't enjoy this book at all. It's a bit silly but supposed to be inspiring, motivational, casual guy talk. Whatever.Some reviews have complained about similicity of recipes. Or that recipes when followed have no flavor. Or that they turn out bad when followed exactly. Well, let me address these points.1) Simple recipes are a positive thing for a busy man who is trying to balance a fast paced, demanding career with an active social life and a tough workout regimen. The more easy ways we can get full nutrition with high protein content the better. Less items to shop for, less time spent preparing food items, less time consuming them.2) For somebody who is focused on body building or athletic performance, food is fuel. It isn't a social occasion. It isn't something where you sit down and enjoy all the flavors and aromas. It's like putting gas in your car. Pick the quality grade you want, pump it in, and get back on the road.3) If you follow a recipe and it turns out bad, you probably did something wrong. If you follow recipes to the letter, you're definitely doing something wrong (unless you're baking). Recipes are guidelines. What is a "medium" tomato? Or a "large" egg? Or even "medium" heat? Food products vary widely by location, consumer-grade ovens can vary by as much as 25 degrees, stovetops vary in heat output.. you don't like cumin? Well then don't put so much in the chili. Enough said.Now I do agree, the organization of this book is somewhat poor. It seems good at first, but after you first look at it and then start using it, you wish things were in different places. Well ya know what I did? I used a razor and cut the pages out. Used a 3-hole punch and re-organized them into a binder. Now the pages are where I want them, with dividers and markers so I can find everything quickly. It's not a holy Bible, you can suit it to fit your needs, remove the junk you don't want. I also added pages from other similar books that I like and compliment this material.Also, this isn't a diet book per se, it's a nutrition book more than anything. If you're looking to loose weight by changing your diet, just eating the foods in the book won't be as beneficial as something tailored towards weight loss. These foods are to be paired with a strenuous exercise routine to build muscle in the serious athlete.And finally, everybody is different. While it's tempting to have a play-by-play which tells you exactly what to eat, when to eat it, what supps to take, etc.. that doesn't mean it's going to work for you. You need to work at it, take notes, and change things one thing at a time to see what effects it has, and over time you find the right combination for you. Yea it's good to have a starting point, but unless you're built like Greg Avendon (if you're reading this you probably aren't!), then you most likely won't benefit from his nutritional profile. Take the concepts he lays out and then do the hard work to make it applicable to you. ### ⭐⭐⭐ Only text, no images *by A***X on Reviewed in Canada on January 29, 2013* Good recipes but it's kind of difficult to choose just looking at plain black/white text.
