Exercise And Blood Sugar Levels

“You mean I never told you the secret to gaining weight?”

The following is a write up by my friend Gant This nugget comes from JM Blakely, a bench press specialist who was known for gaining and losing significant amounts of weight depending on where he was in his training cycle. He wrote several articles for Powerlifting USA, including “The Big Boy’s Menu Plan“(reprinted ). The article is gold. The summary: there are no hard gainers, only undisciplined eaters.

Blakely is specifically addressing bulking cycles for powerlifting. But anyone on the path to 70’s Big can can benefit from this knowledge. Make no mistake, eating for mass requires effort equal to that which you put into your training.

In a recent article, Dave Tate tells how Blakely helped him over a mass plateau. Prepare to be inspired.
