Mark – THANK YOU for posting this. I’ve been reading your blog for awhile, and was a little disappointed you never addressed the fact that women were part of your readership too. I’ve been working out for years (Body For Life got me started nine years ago)., but recently got fed up with the lack of results I was seeing from running 15 miles a week.

Educating myself about strength training has resulted in changing myself into the lean, strong (but certainly not bulging!) and defined body I’ve been after. It’s boosted my confidence, and been a lot of fun, too.

However, I tried your M.A.N.S. diet and found it added body fat (not a whole lot, but still). Any suggested modifications for those of us belonging to the female persuasion?

Mark, hey.

I’ve modified my diet a bit — yet still low carb — after I found musclehack. I use your exercise program, also.

I’m up 9 LB. So, I went from 138 to 147 since the start of August. All muscle!

I honestly believe HEAVY cream is the best “steroid” no one knows about. I found this out thanks to your Web Site.

I make my own shake. It’s a bit higher in carbs, but it’s been my secret gainer —

I’ll post it and ya can take it down if you want too. But it’s delicious and has done the trick for someone who can’t gain a pound, usually. And, has cured my cravings for carbs during the week because of the other “secret” ingredient.
______________________________________________________
1 and a 1/2 cups of water
two scoops of natural flavored whey protein powder isolate.
2 Tablespoons of Hershey’s Cocoa Special Dark powder
3 Tablespoons of organic heavy cream (I sometimes add more)
5-7 ice cubes
1/4th cup coconut flakes
1/4th cup of blanced almonds
1/4th cup halved walnuts
2 tablespoons of ground flaxseed

Blend together for a quick, and delicious snack.
______________________________________________________
RESULT?
FAT=61 grams
CAlories=859
PRO=60.8 grams
Net Carb=7.7 grams

Later in the day, I take three table spoons of Udo’s Choice, also. I highly recommend researching it. A great Musclehack food, also. 14 grams of fat per tablespoon — and a great source of omega 6 and 9s.

So, yep. This has helped me gain 10 lb in 3 weeks. I take two shakes a day. Also, do the muscle hack workout.

If ya have any questions, plz e-mail me.

THANKS

JUSTIN

PROTEIN POWDER=BIOPLEX NATURAL FLAVORED ISOLATE, local company

FLAXSEED=BOB’s Redmill whole ground flaxseed (local company that rocks, too)

HERSHEY’s DARK Cocoa powder is a Musclehack must have in my opinion. Two tbsp in a protein drink makes me feel like i’m eatting a beautiful treat — but for 5 calories and ONE NET CARB!
