Hey Fellas,<\/span><\/p>\n

Forget everything you’ve ever heard about “eating healthy.” Most of what you\u00a0think<\/em> is healthy, is actually contributing to your bulging waistline, and preventing you from building muscle.\u00a0<\/span>
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

Finding that you can’t burn fat like you used to be able to?<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

Experiencing low sex drive and an inability to recover from your workouts?<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

Unable to pack on lean, strong muscle even though you’re working out hard?<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

Feeling run down and even depressed?<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

Chad Howse brings a different approach to men’s health. While aesthetics are important, they’re not his main focus. To be a man, an OPTIMAL MAN, you have to be optimal physically as well as mentally and spiritually.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0And that’s where fitness comes into the picture for Chad, and he solves the issue of excess body fat at it’s source: a lack of testosterone. Men can’t turn a blind eye to the fact that most diets aren’t made for us.<\/span>
We have to wake up to the fact that our testosterone levels are dropping at alarming rates. And Chad’s busting his arse to bring men all over the world a permanent solution to this pandemic.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><\/div>\n

If you answered yes to\u00a0any<\/em> of the questions above, or if you’re simply trying to figure out how to build your strongest, healthiest body, then I’ve got good news for you.<\/span><\/p>\n

I’m going to show you how to make simple changes to your diet that will give you MORE freedom, but allow you to burn more fat and build more muscle. You see, there’s one hormone that men\u00a0need<\/em> more than any other…<\/span><\/p>\n

Most Diets Are Made for Women, NOT MEN!<\/b><\/span><\/h1>\n

This hormone is so powerful for men, it\u2019s been show to:<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

    \n
  • Reduce your risk of cancer and disease,<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n
  • Lower your likelihood of suffering from depression,<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n
  • As well as dramatically improving our body\u2019s ability to burn fat and build muscle.<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    I\u2019ve helped guys from all walks of life, be they pro athletes or average Joe\u2019s, build their ideal bodies. And through my years of experience I\u2019ve discovered one constant\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n

    Men don\u2019t know how important testosterone is to their health, and it’s making them fatter and weaker as a result.<\/b><\/span><\/h1>\n

    Men are experiencing lower testosterone levels with each decade. We\u2019re producing less<\/i> of this powerful hormone that literally makes us MEN<\/i>, with each generation.\u00a0<\/span>Our bellies are getting bigger and we\u2019re producing less and less Testosterone\u2026 Coincidence?<\/span><\/span><\/h1>\n

    Of course not.<\/span><\/p>\n

    \"\"

    To fight the “LOW T” pandemic, doctors are prescribing injections. But they do more harm than good. Testosterone injections only provide a temporary solution, but they also STOP YOUR BODY FROM PRODUCING TESTOSTERONE<\/strong> in the long term. Keep reading to find out a PERMANENT SOLUTION.<\/span><\/p><\/div>\n

    As you begin to produce less testosterone, your body has a much more difficult time burning off excess body fat. To compound this, the more body fat you have, the more likely you are to suffer from \u201clow T\u201d.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    It\u2019s a vicious cycle that\u2019s only compounded by what you\u2019re eating RIGHT NOW.<\/span><\/p>\n

    And it\u2019s not your fault!\u00a0<\/span>Most diets simply aren\u2019t made for men.<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/h1>\n

    They don\u2019t provide us with the building blocks for testosterone. And if they DO contain the good fats we need in our diets, they fail to give us the good carbs we need to fuel our muscles.<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n

    Actually, much of what we\u2019re eating is KILLING OUR TESTOSTERONE, making us absorb and store more body fat, and stopping us from building lean, strong muscle.<\/span><\/p>\n

    There is, however, a solution, and I came across it when my<\/i> testosterone levels were nearing dangerous lows\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n

    I\u2019d been working out for a number of years and had already had some success. A new business took up most of my time, and my physical goals focused more around burning fat while maintaining muscle than anything.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    Always open to trying different things out, I began increasing my carb and protein intake, while dropping the amount of fat I was eating. This, of course, was at the recommendation of not only my doctor, but the health and fitness magazines we all look to for guidance.<\/span><\/p>\n

    <\/h1>\n

    Myth #1 – \u2018Good Carbs\u2019 Keep You Lean<\/b><\/span><\/h1>\n

    Are all carbs bad? No. They can<\/em> be GREAT and effective IF USED PROPERLY and at the right time. In fact, if consumed at the right time they can actually help you hormonally as well. But NO ONE seems to be consuming them when they should.<\/span><\/p>\n

    We eat carbs at breakfast (a no-no), we eat them right before a workout (another no-no), and we don’t eat them at night when we actually should be eating them<\/i>. I know this probably goes against everything you’ve heard regarding carbohydrates, and that’s why I’m writing this article.<\/span><\/p>\n

    If they aren\u2019t used effectively, even \u201cgood carbs\u201d can negatively effect your testosterone levels, hurt your insulin health, and make you carry more fat (which, in turn, will only further lower your testosterone levels).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    The solution is to use these \u201chealthy\u201d food groups when they\u2019re not going to be stored as body fat, but rather used to feed your metabolical and anabolic muscle, right after your workout.<\/span><\/p>\n

    \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    I didn\u2019t know why at the time, but I started losing muscle and gaining fat.<\/strong> Initially I<\/span><\/p>\n

    STUDY #1:<\/strong> Dr. Christina Wang of the University of California at Los Angeles, in studying the effects of testosterone treatment on men with testosterone deficiency, found that men expressed feelings of edginess, anger, irritability, and aggression prior to treatment.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>\u00a0After treatment, their anger and agitation decreased, their sense of optimism and friendliness heightened.<\/strong> Testosterone is not only not the rage-inducing hormone that it was (and is) believed to be, it\u2019s also vital to the health of a man.<\/span><\/p><\/div>\n

    thought I\u2019d just reached a plateau with my training, so I tried a new program. But nothing improved.\u00a0<\/span>I changed how <\/i>I lifted, what I lifted, and how often I worked out. But again, my results didn’t budge. And the decline of my physique was constant and scary.<\/span><\/p>\n

    This was a number of years ago, before the research about fats and carbs was made common knowledge. It was at the height of the \u201cgood carbs\u201d craze. When good carbs were the ‘be all end all’ for health.<\/span><\/p>\n

    Everything I read, everything my Mom read, everything everyone I knew read said that lean proteins and good carbs should be the staple of your diet if you want to get lean, ripped, and stronger. And this isn\u2019t entirely untrue, what is<\/i> untrue is to what degree these foods should be included in your diet.<\/span><\/p>\n

    But I digress. The point is, I didn\u2019t know what was going on. It was like my body was working against me, <\/i>rather than for me<\/i>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    I even went to the doctor to get tested for allergies. He found that yes, I had a number of food allergies, including an allergy to dairy. But his solution to my food allergies ended hurting me even more when he prescribed that I consume soy milk as a replacement for dairy.<\/span><\/p>\n

    \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    Myth #2 – Dieting Helps You Burn Fat<\/b><\/span><\/h1>\n

    Dieting, i.e. limiting your caloric intake, actually makes you\u00a0store more fat<\/em>, and burn muscle. You don’t need to dramatically cut calories to cut fat. Rather, you need to eat\u00a0more<\/em> of the right calories.<\/span><\/p>\n

    If you’re eating the\u00a0right calories<\/em> at the\u00a0right times<\/em>, you’ll force your body to burn fat and store muscle.<\/span><\/p>\n

    If your hormones are working optimally, your body works more like the well-oiled machine that it\u00a0should be<\/em>.<\/span><\/p>\n

    So don’t listen to your lady and cut calories. Instead, follow the diet that I used, The Man Diet<\/em>, to get in the best shape of my life.<\/span><\/p>\n

    \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    My body was spiraling downwards, which made absolutely no sense to me. I should have been at my physical prime, but I was getting weaker and fatter!<\/span><\/p>\n

    And then, as if by divine intervention, I had a scheduled trip to go see a buddy in New York. Actually, I was there visiting a young lady, but I scheduled a lunch with a mutual friend who was doing some pretty impressive things in the health and fitness industry.<\/span><\/p>\n

    STUDY #2:<\/strong> A study published by the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, studied the effect of dietary lipid consumption (animal fats) on levels of sex-hormone binding globulin (SHBG), free testosterone, and cholesterol in men. They looked at how eating more dietary fats can influence levels of SHBG, free testosterone and cholesterol.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>After consuming a diet with a high fat content (greater than 100 g fat\/day) for two weeks, the mean plasma cholesterol level increased (p less than 0.02) while the mean SHBG level decreased (p less than 0.02).<\/strong><\/span>Why are these stats important?<\/strong><\/span>
    About 2\/3 of your body\u2019s testosterone is bound to SHBG, and not \u201cfree\u201d.<\/span>
    Many in the scientific community believe that \u201cfree\u201d testosterone is the only form of the hormone that counts, as it\u2019s the only form of T that is actually ready to work on your tissue.<\/span><\/p><\/div>\n

     <\/p>\n

    I hate to paint a gloomy picture of my life at this time. I mean, things were going really well. I was dating a nice girl, I had a business that was growing, and I was doing some traveling and having fun.<\/span><\/p>\n

    Life was, overall, good. But my body wasn\u2019t performing like I wanted it to. It felt like I was in a hamster wheel. I’d work hard and “eat right”, but the results never came.\u00a0<\/span>More than that, I was feeling down in the dumps, I was stressed, I lacked energy, and every other area of my life felt the negative effects to a body that just didn’t perform how it should.<\/span><\/p>\n

    Anyhow, I went to my pal\u2019s apartment one day while I was in New York. We had planned to eat a quick breakfast at his place, then get some work done in his apartment.\u00a0<\/span>When I got there, we made small talk, laughed a bit, and then got to cooking breakfast.<\/span><\/p>\n

    Keep in mind that, for the past 24 years of my life, all I\u2019d heard was how bad fat was for you, how it makes you fat, and how it hurts your heart.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    \u2026 And then this guy fires up his stove, covers his pan in butter, and cracks open 16 eggs to split between the two of us!<\/span><\/p>\n

    I was confused.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

    I was looking at him. He was as fit as anyone I\u2019d seen. He was muscular, very energetic, and by all accounts happy, and this is what he ate?<\/span><\/p>\n

    Oh, and then he added bacon to the dining experience, and my mind was officially blown.<\/span><\/p>\n

    So I asked him, What\u2019s with all the fat. Isn\u2019t that bad for you?<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

    My entire life I\u2019d listened to health professionals tell me to avoid fat and eggs and cholesterol. But here he was, cracking open 16 whole eggs, and telling me that natural fats like saturated, polyunsaturated, and monounsaturated fats, DON\u2019T ACTUALLY MAKE YOU FAT.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

    \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    Myth #3 – Fats and Red Meat Lead to Heart Disease & Obesity<\/b><\/span><\/h1>\n

    Contrary to popular belief, the good fats you find in meats and fish actually prevent<\/i> you from gaining body fat and ward off<\/i> diseases like heart disease.<\/span><\/p>\n

    This myth is leading men to change their diets in a very ineffective and harmful manner.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    We didn\u2019t get into it in too much detail that day, but what he finished with saying sent me into a 4-year mission to discover how men truly need to eat. He said:<\/span><\/p>\n

    These fats actually help you naturally raise your testosterone levels.<\/b><\/span><\/h1>\n

    I was floored\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n

    Could that actually be true? Or was this guy just pulling my leg?<\/span><\/p>\n

    Could the single food group I\u2019d always been told to avoid, actually be the healthiest thing for me (and you) to eat?<\/span><\/p>\n

    Could ALL of the nutrition advice I\u2019d been given up to this point in my life be wrong?<\/span><\/h1>\n

    And what about testosterone?<\/span><\/p>\n

    I\u2019d always been told that testosterone isn\u2019t a good hormone. That it makes men angry, covered with zits, and filled with rage.\u00a0<\/span>Could this hormone actually be good for me?<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

    As soon as I got back from that trip I did one very smart thing – and yes, I still pat myself on the back for this: I got my testosterone levels checked.\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

    I\u00a0highly<\/em> recommend you do this too.<\/span><\/p>\n

    Now, I was in my early twenties. I was fit, active, and seemingly in perfect health. So when I got the results back, and my testosterone levels were far below \u201coptimal\u201d, I was crushed, confused, and I felt betrayed.\u00a0<\/span>I\u2019d been told to eat one way my entire life, now I\u2019m finding out that this way of eating is actually making me less<\/i> manly. That it\u2019s making me absorb more fat and burn more muscle!<\/span><\/p>\n

    I\u2019ve learned the dirty little secret that your favorite magazines, even your doctor, doesn\u2019t want you to know:<\/span><\/p>\n

    \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    Men need to eat differently than women. And most of the diets you\u2019ll find on the book shelves and online, are made specifically for women, but don\u2019t give men the nutrients, nor the foods that they want and need<\/i> to be optimal.<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

    \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    Why do you think this is?<\/span><\/p>\n

    Let me ask you another question:<\/strong> Who do you think is more worried about their weight, the guy on the left, or the babe on the right? Even though the woman is in great shape, and the guy isn’t, her weight<\/em> is an emotional issue, and emotion sells. Thus, the health and fitness industry,\u00a0my industry,\u00a0<\/em>panders to the group that will earn them the most money.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

    \"fat\"babe\"<\/p>\n

    We can’t forget about men!<\/span><\/h1>\n

    There are a few problems with most diets for men. For one, they aren’t sustainable. They’re filled with foods that we hate to eat. So even though we may be able to diet for a few weeks, we inevitably binge and fall off the wagon. Secondly, most diets don’t give us the foods we\u00a0need,\u00a0<\/em>like a hefty amount of red meat, fish, and other meats.<\/span><\/p>\n

    If we don’t supply our bodies with the building blocks for testosterone, we’re not going to have the healthy levels we need to be at our best, not just aesthetically, but with regards to our health and performance as well. Men need a guide, a plan, a way of eating that they can sustain and enjoy, but that will also help us become healthier, stronger men. And so I went to work to create the ideal diet for men…\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    Over the past 4 years I\u2019ve discovered how to naturally enhance testosterone levels with simple changes to diet and environment.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

    I\u2019ve written for Men\u2019s Health<\/i> on this very topic. I\u2019ve brought my own<\/i> testosterone levels to new OPTIMAL<\/em>\u00a0levels, and as a result I\u2019ve never been more ripped or stronger in my life.<\/span><\/p>\n

    I have more energy,\u00a0life<\/em> is better,\u00a0business is better<\/em>, and I can attribute each of these improvements to a way of eating, and a way of living that I now adhere to.<\/span><\/p>\n

    I don’t eat boring, bland foods, nor do I have a diet that’s exceptionally “healthy” by the standards of those female diets you’re probably following right now, but it is <\/em>healthy for men.<\/strong><\/span>\u00a0I’m able to stay in top shape year round, keeping my body fat levels low, and my muscle lean, even through the holiday season.<\/span><\/p>\n

    4 Secrets to Naturally Enhance Your Testosterone Levels<\/span><\/h1>\n

    \"d\"<\/p>\n

    Secret #1 – Take more vitamin D.\u00a0<\/strong>Most scientists and doctors agree that”free\u00a0testosterone” is the only form of the hormone that matters because it’s free to move around the body and repair tissue. Vitamin D helps “free” the testosterone in your body that’s bound to proteins. The problem: we don’t consume enough vitamin D. Consume 3,000 IU upon rising and before bed.\"s\"<\/span><\/p>\n

    Secret #2 – Take 2 cold showers a day.<\/strong> Your testosterone levels are highest between 4am-6am in the morning. Taking a cold shower at night before bed will help you sleep, but also help you naturally enhance your testosterone levels. Do the same upon rising to wake up but get your T levels boosted. Have the shower last for 10 minutes both in the morning and at night. And keep it as cold as possible.<\/span><\/p>\n

    \"bottle\"<\/span><\/p>\n

    Secret #3 – Avoid plastics<\/strong>. Plastics contain chemical estrogens that raise your body’s estrogen levels, which then lower your testosterone levels. Avoid carrying your water in plastic bottles and your food in plastic containers.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    Secret #4 – Take mini-vacations<\/strong>. This isn’t talked about very \"h\"often, but stress is one of the greatest inhibitors of testosterone because it results in the release of cortisol in your body. One of the way to measure testosterone is in relation to cortisol. If your cortisol is high, your testosterone can’t be. It’s important to de-stress once a month. Get out in nature, get off the computer, and unplug.<\/span><\/p>\n

    I’ve been lied to and ignored by the very industry that I make a living in. I know what it’s like to work hard in the gym, but not have those workouts show themselves in how I looked or performed.\u00a0<\/span>I know what it’s like to train HARD, but still carry around too much fat and not enough muscle. I know what it’s like to “eat healthy” but still feel lethargic and run down.<\/span><\/p>\n

    But I\u00a0also know<\/em> what it’s like to workout less, but get better results. To eat effectively and have more energy.<\/strong><\/span><\/h1>\n

    You don’t need to eat\u00a0less<\/em> to burn fat. You need to eat the right foods at the right times to build your ideal body through natural testosterone enhancement.\u00a0<\/span>And I’ve created a method that allows men to do just that.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    \"man

    The Only Diet Created Specifically to help Men Naturally Enhance Their TESTOSTERONE Levels.<\/span><\/p><\/div>\n

    I disagree. Thus, I created\u00a0the Man Diet<\/em>.<\/span><\/p>\n

    I’ve experienced first hand the lack of guidance to help men naturally enhance the most powerful hormone in our bodies. I’ve tried the fad diets, the quick fixes. I’ve tried them all. But nothing fixed the underlying issue that’s plaguing more and more men every year: We’re Experiencing Low Testosterone And No One Cares!<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

    Our doctors give us testosterone injections that make them money, cost us thousands, and create a dependency on said injections. If we stop taking them, our testosterone levels drop even lower!<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

    They prescribe diets that don’t work, that are meant for women, that lower our testosterone levels and make us less manly. Our environments, the objects that surround us, and the lives we live, create an atmosphere for Low T. What we need is a way to eat and a way to live that will help us naturally enhance out testosterone levels for the REST OF OUR LIVES.<\/span><\/p>\n

    That’s why I created the man diet. And boy, am I glad I did.<\/span><\/p>\n
