Success Story

Phil Roberts - Age 28
Sarting weight: 371 lbs.
Current weight as of 5-24-2010: 288
Total weight lost to date: 83 lbs.














(Phil left, Jeremy-Coach center, Alex-riding partner right)

My weight loss journey begin July 2009 when I went to my first Strongman Competition in Ft. Myers, Fl.  I watched friends of mine compete in the toughest comeptition of their lives. Seeing the commitment and determination of these people to never give up excited me and lite a spark in me to do the same for myself.

This was the beginning of my journey. I was now determined to drop the weight and get in shape. Not in the cliche' since but for real. A good friend of mine Jeremy Barnett ownes and operates CrossFit Thoroughbreds  here in Ft. Myers, Fl.  I asked him to help me get started on the right path. Jeremy and with the help of another trainer Danny Aguirre worked with me on my diet and training program.

I started the Metabolic Typing Diet and learned to eat 5-6 times per day. Smaller more well balanced meals that fit my specific metabolism.  This isn't a quick fix plan. This is a lifestyle change. I cant 'say I'm 100% perfect all the time on it but I have made postive changes enough to help me lose 83 lbs. in 10 months of hard work.

I tried various types of fitness training. I started with powerlifting, strongman training then tried CrossFit training. All worked well and helped to give me a solid foundation to build on.  The strength training helped to make me stronger, build lean muscle which in turn helped me to burn more fat and calories all day.

In January 2010 my friend and trainer Jeremy Barnett introduced me to road cycling.  He helped me pick out a bike to buy and all the necessary gear to go with it. He worked with me on form and technique, pace and cadence in the beginning. I started out only able to do 2-4 miles each ride. Jeremy taught me about proper cycling nutrition and also intoduced me to Hammer Nutrition supplements for endurance athletes. This helped my training rides tremendously. No longer was I dehydrated and fatigued on my rides. I now had enough energy and fuel to go longer and faster. Now 5 months into my cycling training I can now do 25-30 miles with no problem. My goal is to be able to do a century ride (100 miles) by the end of the year 2010.

So far I'm on the right track. I still have another 100 lbs. to lose but I now know what it takes to make it happen. Now "It's Time to Hammer it Out !"

Nutrition for Muscle Building




Nutrition For Muscle Building


By Doberman Dan author of the Hyper Growth Muscle Mass Training program.
Proper nutrition is vital for growth. It plays a very important role in the body's growth and recovery processes. To extract as much as possible from your meals they should be well balanced and well spaced throughout the day. In this way the body is better able to absorb the nutrients and there is less stress on the digestive system.

Protein - Vital for Growth - contrary to some expert opinions bodybuilders/weightlifters need lots of protein. It plays a crucial role in the recovery and building of muscle tissue. It is absolutely required by the body to repair and build new muscle tissue.

Physiological stresses caused by intense weight training leads to nitrogen loss. To grow and get stronger the body must be in a positive nitrogen balance. This means eating protein every 2 - 3 hours. For optimum growth you should be ingesting approximately 30-50 grams of protein, 4 -7 times a day. This is dependant upon your present weight and the quality of the protein you are ingesting.

Good sources of protein are lean red meat, whole eggs, dairy products, fish and chicken. A high quality protein supplement can also be used, such as whey protein or a good milk and egg mix. High quality protein supplements are absorbed well by the body and do not take as long to digest.

If you are trying to gain muscle mass and you have trouble putting on weight than use this diet with your Hyper Growth Muscle Mass Training program.


Free Muscle Building Nutrition Plan


The Huge Growth Diet
Meal #1
Oatmeal or shredded wheat w/milk
2-6 Eggs - use 1/2 yolks
2 Slices of Whole grain toast

Meal#2
Protein drink
8-12 ounces milk
1/2 - 1 banana
1-2 scoops protein powder

Meal #3
Lean Red meat
Baked potato or rice
8-12 ounces of milk

Meal #4
1-2 cans of Tuna
2-4 slices whole grain bread
Lite or no-fat mayonnaise
1 banana
8-12 ounces milk

Meal #5
Large plate of pasta
3-4 ounces lean ground beef
small salad w/oil and vinegar dressing
8-12 ounces of milk

Meal #6
Lean red meat or chicken
1-3 baked potatoes
1 serving of mixed vegetables
8-12 ounces of milk

This diet will provide roughly between 3500-5500 calories depending on the size of the portions. You may need to adjust the calories upwards or downwards, depending on your present condition. Here are some general guidelines:

To lower calories:
1) Utilize smaller portions
2) Increase fibrous carbohydrates while decreasing starchy carbohydrates
3) Eat less red meat

To increase calories:
1) Eat slightly larger portions
2) Use a weight gain supplement instead of protein powder
3) Use 2% or whole milk

We cannot stress enough the importance of being as consistent as possible about your diet. Do not skip meals, or eat poorly. Many of the hardgainers who have used the Hyper Growth Muscle Mass Training program and followed the dietary guidelines attributed a large part of their gains to this nutritional protocol.

All The Best,
Doberman Dan

ATTENTION: Hardgainers! Have your training results come to a screeching halt even though you are spending countless hours in the gym and wasting hundreds of dollars on useless supplements?
