Learn more about The Muscle & Strength Pyramid: Nutrition by E. R. Helms | Evidence-Based Gains
Navigating the available fitness information online can be confusing and time-consuming at best, and a minefield of misinformation at worst. One inherent problem is that information online is always presented as supremely important and as the next ‘big thing,’ without context or any understanding of priorities.
Enter The Muscle and Strength Pyramid books. The foundational concept of these books is understanding priorities and context, so you can take all the pieces of the puzzle and fit them together into an actionable plan.
• No longer waste time and energy with your nutritional efforts
The structured order of importance is what makes this book different. Learn what matters and when.
• Use our science-based calculations for optimal setup
Whether you’re headed for the bodybuilding stage, cutting pounds for a weight class, or about to go on a bulk, we’ve got it covered.
• Achieve continued and lasting changes
Learn how to balance adherence, consistency, and flexibility so you can live your life while progressing toward your goals.
The chief author of the books, Dr. Eric Helms, has not only the academic understanding of training and nutrition as an active researcher but also extensive practical experience. He has been a personal trainer, powerlifting and bodybuilding coach since 2005, helping hundreds bridge the gap between science and practice to reach their goals.
In addition, he has the minds of Andrea Valdez, and Andy Morgan to ensure the concepts are communicated clearly and effectively and no stone is left unturned. Andrea is a lifelong athlete with extensive coaching experience and her Masters in Exercise Physiology, and Andy is a successful writer and consultant for body composition change with a unique grasp of how to communicate topics to diverse groups, as he produces content for both the Japanese and English speaking fitness communities.
Together, they bring you The Muscle and Strength Nutrition Pyramid, the hierarchical, comprehensive, evidence-based guide that is a must-have for every serious lifter or trainer.
