About this listen

The bestselling fitness book for men who want to gain 25-35 pounds of lean muscle and lose as much fat or more in just 3-5 hours per week—and without giving up delicious foods or doing grueling workouts.

Is Bigger Leaner Stronger a body building book that can help you pack on brain-shrinking amounts of muscle in 30 days flat?

No.

Is it a fitness nutrition book full of dubious diet and exercise “hacks” and “shortcuts” for melting belly fat faster than a roided hornet?

Absolutely not.

But is it a science-based strength training book (and nutrition book) that’ll demystify building muscle and losing fat and show you exactly how to get a lean, strong, and muscular physique without spending hours in the gym every day?

And while still enjoying your favorite foods, like hamburgers, pizza, and ice cream?

Yes.

And you’ll see visible results in the mirror and gym in your first month on the program.

Here are just a few of the things you’ll discover inside this muscle building book for men:

● The 10 biggest fitness myths and mistakes that keep guys frail and confused. For example, “calories are all that matters,” “carbs and sugars make you fat,” and “some guys don’t have the genetics to get big.”

● The primary driver of muscle growth that forces your muscles to get bigger and stronger. And no, it has nothing to do with “muscle confusion,” “functional training,” or any other pseudoscientific fitness nonsense.

● How to create meal plans for building muscle and losing fat with foods you love so you never feel starved, deprived, or like you're "on a diet" (and especially a “bodybuilding diet”).

● A 12-month workout program that shows you how to use principles and methods taught in the book to build a full chest, wide shoulders and back, powerful legs, and strong arms.

● A no-BS guide to fitness supplements that’ll save you hundreds if not thousands of dollars on useless (and sometimes even dangerous) pills, powders, and potions.

And that’s not all, either . . .

Bigger Leaner Stronger is one of the most popular bodybuilding books of all time, with over 800,000 copies sold in 16 languages, and it has helped tens of thousands of men of all ages and abilities transform their body composition, fitness, and health.

338 peer-reviewed scientific studies support the Bigger Leaner Stronger system of eating, training, and recovering for losing fat and building muscle and strength.

Bigger Leaner Stronger is regularly revised based on the latest findings in nutrition, exercise, and supplementation research, with the latest version (fourth edition) released in 2023.

Here’s the bottom line:

You can get that head-turning “Hollywood hunk” body without following weird, extreme, or complicated diet, exercise, or supplementation methods or strategies.

And this workout book for men shows you how.

So, get your copy now, and start your journey to a bigger, leaner, and stronger you.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

No - some of the chapters on diet, routine & supplements are filled with information - I had to listen to these chapters several times over to check I was doing everything correctly.

Any additional comments?

I've been doing it only a month (5 times a week plus HIIT x3 times a week) & already seeing good results - I plan on completing the year and then re-revaluating my progress. I'm fairly new to body building so it was a perfect introduction for me. I'm very grateful I found this book. I feel more confident in the gym & just focus on my gains. Don't worry what other dudes are doing - just focus on your progress & your relationship with your health/body - this book is a good guide for that; no doubt about it. I think most PT's are scam artists, I've learned more from this book than any trainer I've ever had.

Really changed things for me...
