Revisiting "The Bodybuilding Diet & its Legacy" with guest, Bill Tocco.

Since the early days of Physical Culture, a diet evolved that produced the leanest muscle with the least body fat accumulation. Some of the best early bodybuilders and trainers in the world used it with amazing success. Vince Gironda, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Jack LaLanne, Chet Yorton, on and on. Today this same diet is used by bodybuilders worldwide. And it works just as promoted. Lean, muscular bodies not only look healthy but are the cornerstone of health. In the book Muscle, Smoke and Mirrors Volume 1, author Randy Roach sets out to show the nutritional origins and contributions of early fathers of Physical Culture to what would become the low-carbohydrate, low-inflammatory diet of today. Diets come and go like fads. But this diet has been around for over 100 years now and is the reason we finally realized that what you eat absolutely affects what your body looks like and whether or not you’ll develop diseases.
