I am writing this book because I messed up, and if it wasn't for me opening my mind and having a few people around me take the time to truly love me and help me develop, even in my worst times, I would have been a complete failure. Although I cannot physically be involved in your life, I desire that me-taking the time out to put this book together for you-will have the same and even greater impact on your life. As you're reading this book, I want you to remember that no matter where you are in your life, you have hope. If you are not perfect while or after reading this book, no worries because each breath is a new beginning, and no one is perfect to begin with. The main difference between winners and losers is that losers quit. You will never get to where you want to be if you quit. Everyone falls, but champions get back up. Are you a champion? YES! So, let's get back up, and make things happen!

A state-of-the-art weight-lifting and nutritional blueprint for "skinny" guys who want to pack on muscle Let's face it, naturally skinny guys are at a distinct genetic disadvantage when it comes to building muscle mass. But with the proper advice, these "hardgainers" definitely can realize their fitness goals. In Scrawny to Brawny, the authors draw on their years of practical experience as private strength and nutrition coaches to provide hardgainers with: • A progressive, state-of-the-art program that optimizes results with shorter, less frequent workouts that maximize compound exercises • A unique, action-based perspective on nutrition that shows how to prepare quick muscle-building meals and snacks-and how to take advantage of several critical times in the day when muscle growth can be stimulated by food intake • Vital information on how to identify and fix any weak links in their physiques that may be precursors to injury Designed not only for frustrated adult hardgainers but also--with its strong anti-steroid message--a terrific book for the large teen market, Scrawny to Brawny fills a significant gap in the weight-lifting arsenal.
