Paperback 176 pages

Long-time authority on raw foods, superfoods and truly natural bodybuilding, Thor Bazler outlines numerous techniques and strategies on how to gain muscle and strength completely naturally, eating a diet of raw foods and superfoods. The author explains that every natural-living creature and organism on planet Earth is eating a raw-food diet--and so can you! A gorilla has the strength equivalent to bench-pressing 4,000 pounds. Where does he get this super-strength? What does he eat? Raw Power! provides unprecedented information on the link between diet and bodybuilding fitness. This highly informative book contains chapters on: a raw-food diet, protein, minerals, hydration, Thor's personal workouts, Thor's raw bodybuilding menu plan, Thor's smoothie recipes, and much more. Also included are comprehensive lists of the best raw bodybuilding foods, supplements and superfoods. Message from Thor: "My book Raw Power! was originally published in 1998 under my former name, Stephen Arlin, and has been out of print for several years. I was working on a new book (tentatively titled Raw Power 2), but instead decided to include all that new information in a completely re-written, up-to-date, Raw Power! book. This new Raw Power! 4th edition contains several new chapters and a lot of new material based on my experiences with raw foods, superfoods and strength training over the last 13 years."
