Work Out, Pig Out: A Year of Losing Fat, Gaining Muscle, and Eating Lots of Ice Cream (Home Gym Strong, #1)

Work Out, Pig Out, the first book in the Home Gym Strong series from author Chad V. Holtkamp, is an often hilarious, warts-and-all look at his quest for health and fitness. Unlike most fitness books that only TELL you what to do, this book SHOWS you the reality, digging deep into the details of his daily life -- the good, the bad, the sometimes ugly -- holding up a mirror to our cultural obsession with exercise.

With the Internet providing endless options, most people pinball from one program to another, never satisfied, always wanting to try the latest miracle breakthrough. Chad was no different.

Over the course of a year, he tried nearly a dozen diet and exercise plans from the likes of Dan John (40-Day Workout), Pavel Tsatsouline (Simple & Sinister), Lyle McDonald (Rapid Fat Loss), John Romaniello (Feast-Fast) and many more from a host of other health and fitness experts. Of course, he couldn't help but tweak these programs, making modifications of his own along the way to help with losing fat while gaining muscle.

Most even let him eat his beloved gooey chocolate caramel almond ice cream.
