KNIFE, FORK, MUSCLE_ Book I_ DI - Brooks D. Kubik (1)

FOREWORD by Bill Hinbern
If you are at all familiar with this famous Iron Game author, then you have
read Dinosaur Training: Lost Secrets of Strength and Development. After
reading and applying the weight training principles found in that book, you
undoubtedly increased your overall strength. From there, you moved on to
many of his other publications and garnered even more valuable secrets, tips,
and time-tested strength training routines.
Most of the valuable information that he provided was on the subject of
exercise, with little specific content regarding nutrition, unless you read his
daily emails or blog posts. While the author would often suggest eating plenty
of wholesome food and staying away from junk food, many readers may have

All of Brooks’ publications are a product of extensive, painstaking research.
As a close friend, I am well aware that he has been working on this book for
over five years. He has done an enormous amount of research, study and

Therefore, you can expect, as with all of his other publications, a well-written,
in-depth discussion on all of the aspects of, not only eating for GREAT
STRENGTH, but also, and more importantly, eating for GREAT HEALTH!
While some weight training authorities will touch on this subject, much of the
information contained herein simply cannot be found in any other book
covering diet and nutrition for strength training and muscle-building. For
example, the author’s research and advice on the issue of food allergies and
