Product Description
What if I told you an amazing new breakthrough could make your body explode with new, dense, rock-hard muscle - faster than you ever thought possible?

What if I told you that you could accomplish this by working out as little as 30 to 45 minutes per day, no more than 4 times per week?

And what would you say if I told you that you could have a more powerful-looking chest, arms that impress nearly everyone, and confidence that makes you feel like you're "on top of the world"?

- all this, despite any rotten genetics, sloppy proportions, or measly budget?

And to top it off, all in just 28 days?You’d probably be skeptical, to say the least.Well, my friend, the fact is it's absolutely, positively true. In fact, I guarantee it!

That’s right. If you’re tired of banging your head against the wall--spending countless hours in the gym, with little or no success, I guarantee you’ll get a leaner, stronger, more muscular body than you ever imagined.

If fact, if you want to pack on new muscle, despite not being "genetically gifted" — even if you're considered a "hard gainer" — I guarantee you’ll be able to build the kind of body you never thought was possible.

If you already regularly work out at the gym (which I’m sure you do), I guarantee you’ll be able to break through any plateau and instantly move to the next level - where you’ll accelerate your muscle size and strength so fast your head will spin with disbelief.

I guarantee that my program is unlike any you’ve ever seen before and that you’ll get far better results in a shorter period of time, without working harder or longer - and with much less hassle. (Results that some guys spend year after agonizing year floundering to try and achieve!)

My program will work for you whether you’re fresh out of high school, over 40, out of shape, on the thin side, a husband, father, or single guy in your mid 20’s or 30’s or even 50's.

In the first 10 days alone, you’ll notice dramatic, noticeable differences in your physique. And, after just 28 days, you’ll be able to look in the mirror and actually be excited about what you see.

MAXIMUM GROWTH will show you exactly how to do it - to provide the answers you need to gain unsurpassed muscle size and strength, in the shortest amount of time!

Here’s a "preview" of what you’ll find in this breakthrough program:

1. Introduction: Overcoming the Most Disastrous Muscle-Building Challenge (Find out why most fitness advice is dead wrong!)

2. The 10 Secrets Laws to Gain Strength and Build Muscle (I’ll uncover the real, scientifically proven truths to smarter, faster muscle growth!)

3. A 30-page, day-by-day, 4-Week Blitz Weight-Training Program (this one-of-a-kind program has been personally designed by renowned fitness authority, and best-selling of author of ABSolution, Shawn Phillips!!)

4. Pre- and Post-Body Measurement and Strength Tests (Record and track your staggering results with these easy-to-follow journaling sheets!)

As a special bonus, this book also contains:5. A 30-minute audio CD, featuring an exclusive interview with noted nutritional biochemist, past-president of EAS®, and "step-father" of creatine, Anthony Almada (our interview goes in-depth about the science of muscle growth and how to maximize your gains!)

And that’s it. That’s all I’m going to teach you, because that’s all you need to know!

Now, take out your calendar right at this very moment!Count 28 days from today. Circle that date.Why?Because on the date, there’s a good chance you will be incredibly stronger, much more confident, and significantly more muscular!It will not be magic, nor will it be your imagination.It will be the hard work you put into following MAXIMUM GROWTH!

Muscle? This book spells out EVERYTHING!!
Incredible, is all I can say. This book laid out everything... diet plans, workout calendar, progress charts, strength tests, sets, reps, exercises. This plan made it so easy to follow. And the results, well, let's just say I'm over the moon happy. I wish I could upload a picture of my "before" and "after" so you could see me now! I really look night and day compared to before. Guys at the gym are asking me questions about lifting weights and packing on muscle. Me! Man, I love what Maximum Growth did for me and I'm certain it can do the same for you. ... Read more

From the supplier: The 30-second chair stand test has been found to be a reliable test for evaluating lower body strength of community-dwelling older adults between the ages of 66-97. The chair stand test measures the time it takes to perform a given number of sit-to-stand repetitions. Subjects were made to sit and stand for five to ten times. The study revealed that performance of the test was significantly lower for low-active participants than for high-active participants.

From the supplier: An experiment to determine whether acute-stretching exercise adversely affect maximal strength performance was conducted. Thirty female and male students were asked to perform one-repetition maximum lift (1RM) exercises accompanied by stretching exercises on knee flexors and extensors for two consecutive days. It was discovered that there was a substantial decrease in 1RM performance after an acute stretching exercise. The conclusion was that acute stretching can lower the maximal strength of the knee flexors and extensors.

From the supplier: There are two kinds of muscular strength tests: dynamic and static. Dynamic or isotonic tests require specific body part movement against a resisting force. Static or isometric tests measure the strength capacity when muscles are used against a fixed, non-moving resistance. Muscle strength and anaerobic endurance are related. The latter is short-term activity, usually for less than two minutes. It is not comparable to cardiovascular endurance that requires muscular exertion for a longer period of time. How many times an individual can 'repeat' an activity depends solely on that person's physical and physiological capabilities.

From the supplier: A study was conducted to observe the changes in the antagonist timing and magnitude of two components of antagonist muscles while conducting a ballistic elbow flexion. The participants include 17 right-handed men with varying ages which range from 19 to 32 and were asked to perform a ballistic elbow flexion. Results showed that constant practice may result to a significant improvement in limb speed by elbow flexion.
