The weightlifting community has better diet and nutrition advice than 99% of nutritionists and those who are “experts” in this area. If you want to learn how to eat the most healthily, that’s where to look.

The reason is that they care about results and the results are obvious. And they have skin (and muscle) in the game. If you are eating correctly, you’ll be able to lift 150 pounds this week and 170 pounds a few weeks later. If you aren’t eating correctly, you won’t. In fact it’s likely you’ll even get worse in many cases.

I discovered this in the army when I worked out a lot and it’s really obvious when you get back into it again.
