â€œChris has been my in-camp nutritionist for two-plus years and has worked with me for five training camps in a row. With his help and cooking skills, Iâ€™ve been able to train harder and make weight easier. I was instantly amazed with how much food I was able to eat and still lose weight. Many of the recipes in this book are not only healthy, but they also look and taste great!â€

Â
â€œThis book helped me lean up and perform better during training and competition without feeling like Iâ€™m on a diet or having cravings. The recipes Chris give you are simple, delicious, and nutritious. Itâ€™s an easy-to-follow lifestyle and the results have been amazing for meâ€”and theyâ€™ll be tremendous for you.â€

â€œChris Algieri is one of the biggest and most fit boxers at his weight class and is a world champion. He makes me confident that not only will I make weight, but I will also perform at my peak performance. He made specific adjustments for my body type and has a great understanding of individual needs. This book will be a great resource for anybody.â€
â€” Dennis Bermudez, retired UFC fighter
Â
â€œChris has helped me with my diet for my entire 10-year career in mixed martial arts. He has helped with my day-to-day nutrition in and out of fight camps, my weight-cut protocol, and my rehydration program for after weigh-ins, which to me are the most important. Chris doesnâ€™t only tell you what to eat and when to eat it, but he also breaks down how every personâ€™s body is different and reacts to certain foods different and he explains why I should eat certain foods and why eating them at a specific time is so important. Having him on my team absolutely gave me a tremendous advantage over my competition. I wouldnâ€™t trust anyone else with my diet.â€
â€” Ryan LaFlare, retired UFC fighter
Â
â€œIâ€™ve been an athlete my entire life, but nutrition has always overwhelmed me. We live in a culture of fad diets. Consumers are taught to believe you need to starve in order to lose weight. As a result, the public, like me, gets overwhelmed and discouraged. We tend to starve ourselves to lose weight, and when we canâ€™t take it anymore, we binge. Chrisâ€™s book has made it finally possible for me to break that cycle. I realize eating healthy doesnâ€™t mean I have to be hungry. It doesnâ€™t have to be boring. Not only do I notice a difference in my physical appearance, but the difference in my mood is also amazing. I can think clearer and feel generally happier just by finally finding a way to maintain healthy eating habits. I think this book serves value to not only those competing but also to anyone looking to make positive changes in their health!â€
â€” Sarah Thomas, 2018 New York Golden Gloves winner
Â
â€œHaving known Chris and seeing the way he eats for a few years now, Iâ€™ve seen with my own eyes the superhuman capabilities it gives someone when they get their nutrition on point. I absolutely love that heâ€™s not only finally sharing a taste of his secret recipes but also a ton of educational content so one can make it relevant to their own lifestyle and delivered using a system that seems very simple to implement.â€
