Product Description
Book Description
"An exhaustive job of researching and writing . . . Sliced has my highest recommendation." Lee Haney, seven-time IFBB Mr. Olympia "I almost wish I had the only available copy of Sliced, because it would give me a definite edge on my competitors at the next Ms. Olympia competition!" Anja Langer, IFBB European Champion, Junior World Champion, 2nd/Ms. Olympia, 1988 In a sport where nutrition represents 50 percent of the formula for success, rising to 90 percent during those crucial weeks just prior to competition, bodybuilders from beginners to seasoned professionals look to the latest nutrition strategies to gain the winning edge. Sliced represents up-to-date, proven diet programs and scientific data for achieving maximum muscularity and superior definition. Bill Reynolds, bestselling author and editor in chief of Joe Weider's Flex magazine, has teamed up with Negrita Jayde, former Canadian Overall National Champion, to give readers detailed and authoritative guidelines on nutrition for bodybuilders. Topics include the role of nutrition in hyping the immune system and improving between-workouts recovery, the seven degrees of muscularity from basic off-season shape to super-ripped, tips for increasing the basal metabolic rate and thus burning off excess supplements. In addition to more than 130 recipes and a variety of meal plans, this book offers Jayde's personal nutrition-training program for attaining peak muscularity. Now that drug testing is standard in competition, bodybuilders will particularly value the chapter on ergogenics achieving an anabolic effect naturally all in all making Sliced state-of-the-art in every detail. Bill Reynolds is the editor in chief of Joe Weider's Flex. His 15 years of work and travel with all the champions has resulted in more than 2,000 magazine articles and dozens of books, including Supercut and Joe Weider's Ultimate Bodybuilding. Negrita Jayde is a former Canadian Overall National Champion and author of numerous articles on the subject of nutrition.

Excellent natural bodybuilding book, nothing left to chance!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Sliced (Paperback)
Negrita Jayde writes a remarkably complete, concise, and approachable book on the intricacies of natural bodybuilding. She makes few assumptions about the knowledge level of her readers, but yet the book is so informative that even experienced bodybuilders/competitors won't be bored. She covers everything from visual impressions of the body, symmetry, nutrition, training, supplementation, lighting for training and photographs, definitions of physical (worth the price of the book alone!) condition, and presentation, plus some of the psychology of bodybuilding and that of the reactions of the general public to bodybuilders...the most complete and useful book I've seen...I use my copy continually.

I use it as my nutrition bible!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Sliced (Paperback)
This book is the only book I've found that goes deep into the importance of nutrition in bodybuilding. I refer back to it time and time again and each time I learn something new! It's great for those who just want to shed a little body fat for summer and for those who want to "cut-up" for competition. I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in learning more about diet, exercise and strength training!

I bought this book with the intention of using it during my cutting phase i plan to start in november as i'm currently on a bulking plan so can't really mention results but the book is full of so much info and way detailed then most fat loss books out there and is aimed at the bodybuilder but i think any gym junkie can use these techniques to get lean as hell !
