Publisher Description
Reshape your body and mind by eating light during the day and filling up at night—the core tenet of this revolutionary nutrition program based on survival science.
Along with the many benefits of leisure-class living comes obesity and its attendant ailments. In The Warrior Diet, Ori Hofmekler looks not forward but backward for a solution—to the primal habits of early cultures such as nomads and hunter-gatherers, the Greeks, and the Romans. Based on survival science, this book proposes not ordinary dietary changes but rather a radical yet surprisingly simple lifestyle overhaul.
Drawing on both scientific studies and historical data, Hofmekler argues that robust health and a lean, strong body can best be achieved by mimicking the classical warrior mode of cycling—working and eating sparingly (undereating) during the day and filling up at night. The Warrior Diet Nutritional Program and the Controlling Fatigue Training Program can literally reshape your body and mind by helping you to:
• Find ideal fuel foods and food combinations to reduce body fat
• Gain strength, speed, and resilience to fatigue through special drills
There are also individual chapters on:
• Preparing warrior meals and recipes
• Sex drive, potency, and animal magnetism
• Personalizing the diet for women
Featuring forewords by Fit for Life author Harvey Diamond and Fat That Kills author Dr. Udo Erasmus, The Warrior Diet shows readers weary of fad diets how to attain enduring vigor, explosive strength, a better appearance, and increased vitality and health.
Customer Reviews
Great read for anyone serious about their body
This book may come off as strange to someone who isn't open minded or willing to make a serious change in their eating habits. Give it a chance, it's legit.
An extreme diet but motivational book
To sum up the Warrior Diet: barely eat anything during the day, close the night with a feast.
Most people will pass on that advice, even if it works. But, Ori does a good job on motivating you that one main meal is the way to do it; to me that that's where the book makes its money. That's why it's a couple hundred pages instead of a brochure. The historical studies are also fascinating, which separates it from other diet books.
Sometimes I can't help the feeling that some of his points are a tad quacky (rambling on about the boogyman of toxins in practically... Everything. and the only escape is organic this and that.) also his workouts are a little strange in my opinion.
Overall, good points are made and Ori doesn't insist on anything; he wants you to be in control, and that's what makes this diet worth it.
