About this ebook
John Joseph wants men to know, in no uncertain terms, that they don’t need to eat steak, burgers, wings, ribs, or any other animal product, for that matter, to be strong—in fact, he would argue, eating animals is for the weak. Because when your protein sources come from animals, you’re missing out on all of the nutritional benefits of a plant-based diet—a diet that can make you more fit, more sexy, and more manly.
In Meat is for Pussies, Joseph presents a throw-down of information, offering both personal and scientific evidence that a plant-based diet offers the best path to athleticism, endurance, strength, and overall health. In addition to handily dispelling the myths surrounding meat, Joseph offers workout advice, a meal plan, and recipes that make going plant-based easy. Flavor and vitamin-packed options like the Working Man Stew and Veggie Chili with Cornbread will keep men’s (and women’s) bodies healthy and energized, while workouts that emphasize cardio and strength training build endurance and stamina and prove that you don’t need meat to build muscle.
Joseph also offers living proof that living a plant-based lifestyle is badass, from super-athlete Brendan Brazier to MMA champion Jake Shields to Joseph himself, who is an Ironman Triathlete and still rocking out (at the age of fifty-two) on world tours as the frontman for his legendary band the Cro-Mags. Joseph’s passion for educating the world about the benefits of a plant-based diet comes through on each page, in a voice and a vocabulary that is uniquely his own. At the end of the day, he wants readers to live a long, healthy, happy life . . . and he won’t take no for an answer.

- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5Probably the worst book on diet and nutrition I have ever read. After over 20 years on a plant based diet and suffering with bad skin, dental issues, gas, bloating, dandruff, back and joint pain...l went keto then carnivore and saw everyone of those issues improve drastically and eventually disappear.
- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5Horrible advice. I felt so sick all the time following his recommendations. I’m going to try a meat based diet.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5A good hard hitting book on why to go on a plant based diet. Because of your health and your impact to our biosphere and suffering animals. The workout regimen is also good and challenging. The recipes use US quantities and are really something different. All in all, you will look to our current diet differently and what you eat on a regular basis.
