Natural Bodybuilding Testimonials

At 21 years of age I have achieved a physique which I believe many guys aspire to, but never reach due to lack of knowledge regarding nutrition. I was one of those people at age 16, but thanks to the knowledge that I gained from MuscleNOW, I have achieved feats that I never thought were possible. I have experimented with several other programs over the years. However, if it's muscle size that you are after, I personally don't believe that there is another program out there which is nearly as effective as MuscleNOW. Furthermore, it doesn't take that much time ... since beginning the program, for a majority of the time I have been performing weight training only 3 days per week.

I really do find it amusing and unfortunate how some people continue to believe weird and crazy training and nutrition ideas, when people around clearly have the recipe for success (all your MuscleNOW users). So many guys have asked me how I've managed to achieve what I have, and I honestly do refer them to your site and briefly tell them how the MuscleNOW natural bodybuilding program works, but yet they refuse to believe that it's effective since they argue that by watching me train (by following the MuscleNOW routine) I'm overtraining, how my rep ranges are too low, how I don't do enough exercises etc. etc. I look significantly better than them by following your principles, and yet they are the ones asking me questions. But when you want to help them they still refuse to believe it (instead accusing me of steroids), and instead continue to smash themselves into a brick wall by following flawed techniques that pro bodybuilders have written, or which they've read in some bodybuilding magazine. I really achieved my MuscleNOW results all natural, and without the use of any supplements (except protein powder from time to time for convenience). Thanks for your support and assistance.​

My journey began after I was diagnosed with diabetes 7 years ago. I tore my rotator cuff working out incorrectly and the diabetes kept it from healing. I was already thin at 6ft 4in 165 pounds, but the diabetes made it hard to maintain my weight and impossible for me to gain weight. I bought the MuscleNOW bodybuilding program but the injury still prevented me from working out. I would always have to stop because of my shoulder. Finally 9 months ago after my weight dropped to 150 pounds I decided to try to lift again. This time I replaced bench press with dumbbell flies and another variation of the pec fly machine. I was able to workout consistently this time and in one month I gained close to 10 pounds. In 6 months I gained 35 pounds and I now weigh 185-190 (it fluctuates), but my goal is to be 220 pounds. And yes my rotator cuff is still torn. If it gets too sore I take a break for a day ice it down and get back to working out! Your MuscleNOW program was the best thing to ever happen to me in regards to working out! I can’t thank you enough. I want to hopefully be motivation to other people with diabetes.

Francesco's MuscleNOW bodybuilding program has done wonders for my life. It has turned me from a fat lazy alcoholic into a physically fit, confident go-getter! Just six months ago I started the program and I've noticed a world of difference not only to my physical health, but more importantly to my mental well-being. This program is not easy, but through example it has taught me the value of discipline and hard work in order to achieve a goal. I am currently striving to become a firefighter and I can honestly say that without MuscleNOW I would not have been able to pass my Fireman's Physical agility test, which involves for example wearing a 75 lbs vest and climbing stairs for 3.5 minutes! I could not have passed the test without this program.

Also this past week I helped the local pastor and his wife move everything in his house. Homemade oak furniture, 400 lbs pianos, and all. I was asked if I could help and what popped in to my head was, "My time to shine!" Whereas if you'd asked me to help before I started using MuscleNOW, I would have thought of possibly faking my own death to avoid the situation all-together.

So what once would have seemed a daunting task instead became an easy endorphin-filled rush for me. I urge all healthy men and women out there to run and lift weights to strengthen our bodies so that the mountains whose peaks seemed once too high to climb will instead become your next goal to stake a victory flag! Anyways, the pastor's husband could not thank me enough and I felt like a hero for those 3 days.

The program has also convinced me to stop smoking cigarettes to make my running easier, and I also don't touch alcohol at all during the 5 days a week when I workout. I could go on and on about the side-benefits which surfaced that were completely unknown to me at the time, but for now I'd just like to give my sincere thanks to Francesco and his program for all the wonderful things it has done for me. I'm benching 270 lbs for 8 reps now, and I feel great. THANK YOU SO MUCH!​

An average guy with a wife, kids, job, takes his obese and way out of shape body and turns it into that of a greek god, or at least as close as he can get in 4 months time. This was all done in the midst of the holidays, 2 weeks of downtime from illness, many more cheat days than what is allowed and yet, I was able to shed a total of 39 ½ pounds in 4 months time by following the workouts and diet, even though I cheated and had to stay out of the gym from time to time! I am now on a path of fitness that will get me to that perfect vision of fitness that we all want to have! I hope you get a chance to see my results so that they can inspire you to do what I did, which was to get off the couch and get to work!

I want to say thanks for the MuscleNOW bodybuilding program. This is actually my second time around with MuscleNOW. As you can see in the first picture I had let myself go. I am 5’6” and at the time I was 240 lbs with a 46” waist. I actually thought that I wore the weight well (self denial). At this particular time I was taking Muscle Milk (banana flavor) and thought that I was muscular (like a power lifter). I often found it hard to find clothes (at 46” waist with a 30” inseam). My ankles were always stiff and sore. I couldn’t walk a city block to save my life. I purchased Fat Vanish for my fiancée (whom has also gotten great results) and decided to start back on the MuscleNOW track. I will admit that it wasn’t easy. If fat loss were easy everyone would be skinny. You have to go 100% in the gym. You have to buy into the MuscleNOW program 100% also. If you give the MuscleNOW program anything less you will not see astonishing results. I want to thank my brother Phil (uses MuscleNow also) whom I talked to before starting (for inspiration) because I felt I was too far gone (aka FAT).

I now feel great. I walk around with my head up. My confidence is through the roof. I’ve been able to shop in the normal sections of department stores versus Big and Tall shops. I still have a couple of Fat Vanish and MuscleNOW phases to go. From there I will enter the maintenance phase (more pictures to follow in the future). Keep in mind that I did have Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners. I also went on vacation (good food). I also attended my fiancées company Christmas party (good food). In spite of that I went 100% in the gym and still lost weight/fat. FRANCESCO’S PROGRAMS (FAT VANISH AND MUSCLENOW) WORK!!​

I lost 85 lbs of fat and over 14” from my stomach in 10 months. You made it possible for average Joe's to become healthy. You did it without expensive gimmicks, gadgets or supplements. You came up with the programs and made them available for a very cheap price. I've personally had a lot of trainers in my life (spending about $200 apiece) and have never gotten the gains in strength, health, and most importantly pride that I have with your programs. I would be honored for you to post my testimonial so that I can let people now that you are the REAL deal.

I can't thank you enough for what you have done to help me live healthier and happier (self-esteem). I'm still getting compliments from the appearance changes that I've achieved with MuscleNOW. I've also made incredible gains of strength in the gym. I'm lifting more (with form) weight than I thought I ever could. Thank you, Thank you, and Thank you once again.​

After ten years of working out regularly and seeing less than satisfactory results, I spent three and half years devoting little time to fitness and put on 50 lbs of fat. I had tried spending two hours a day in the gym, several different diets, and countless supplements that promised to help me reach my muscle building goals. While I saw modest results from my efforts, I didn't feel that the return was adequate for the amount of time, money, and effort I was spending to achieve my desired physical improvements.

I eventually become disgusted with the amount of body fat that I had gained and decided to give body building another shot. I decided to count calories as a way to lose fat. While I did actually lose about 30 lbs, I lost quite a bit of muscle in the process as well due to a lack of nutrition. I was searching the internet for a way to get back on track with gaining muscle while not putting on too much fat in the process. I stumbled upon MuscleNOW and after seeing the testimonials paired with the 90 day money back guarantee, I decided that I had nothing to lose and purchased the system.

It took me about 2 days to read through the entire program. Everything is explained in a common sense fashion and can be understood by people looking to begin changing their bodies. While I had to make some changes in my schedule, diet and workout routine, the changes weren't overwhelming and after two weeks, I was following the program with ease. While the program offers a fat loss and muscle building phase, I decided to follow the fat loss program since I still had some unwanted body fat that I wanted to get rid of.

The results were incredible even after the first week. I lost a half of an inch of off my waist after just the first week! After following the fat loss phase for 9 weeks, I had lost 5 inches from my waist and was able to finally show off the six pack that I haven't had in over 6 years. If you would have told me that such incredible results could be gained in just 9 weeks, I would have thought that you were crazy. I achieved better results in 9 weeks than what I had achieved over the past year of working out and dieting.

After those 9 weeks, I received compliments from all of my friends and family. Now, after not even one year on your program I have increased my strength on all lifts by at least 50% and have lost over 13% body fat! MuscleNOW is continuing to transform my body and has changed my life. I am more confident in all areas of life because of the success I have been able to achieve using MuscleNOW. It is awesome to see how so many people are amazed at the results that I have achieved. Just look at the definition in my abs and obliques! What is also incredible is that I have gained over 10 lbs of muscle mass to go along with the 13% decrease in body fat. I cannot recommend this program enough. For anyone looking to transform their body, MuscleNOW will get you the results you have always wanted. Thank you for all of your assistance throughout the past months Francesco; I couldn't have transformed my body without your help.

MuscleNOW is the real deal and I can't recommend purchasing it enough. The price of this program is a bargain to achieve the kind of life changing results that you will undoubtedly see if you follow the system as it is described. Thank you Francesco for taking out all of the guess work and providing a system that really works...fast!

May God Bless you for dedicating your life to helping others live a more healthy and fit life!​

I purchased your program a few years ago, but as so many people do when they start a fitness program I got impatient after a couple of weeks and quit. Although your program had given me all the knowledge I ever needed to be successful, I didn’t sustain the drive and motivation to be successful. One day after telling myself that it was now or never, I picked up your book again and started reading. As I turned the pages it was as if you were speaking to me personally saying “if you trust in my principles I will get you to where you want to be.” I followed your guidelines EXACTLY as you instructed with regard to my diet and how I performed in the gym over the next twelve weeks and as anyone can see in my before and after photos I had DRAMATIC results. I’m very happy to say that I did this without costly supplements that can often be harmful to your health. I not only looked better, I felt better! An indirect result of your program is the confidence it gave me as a person in all aspects of my life and today I am better for it, so thanks!!

Friend of mine showed me your MuscleNOW bodybuilding program. I read it almost in one breath, transferred program in excel, filled up the fridge with healthy food and started to work out and eat as you teach in MuscleNOW. I cannot describe how astonished I was about the results in next few weeks!! In first 10 weeks I lost around 4-5 Kilograms of FAT! I was on some training routines before, but it was only one failure after another, and results didn't want to come, and than I got even my back injured and quit weightlifting. Those were sad days, but they are OVER NOW!! Your MuscleNOW program works like magic for me!! All the fat is now gone and I am gaining new muscles almost every new month. I even quit my regular job at the police and started personal training. That's how good is your MuscleNow program!!

And what's the best of it, I benefit from a lot of your advises also in other areas of my life! One can see very fast, that you worked real hard to put that material together into a wonderful working combination. Thank you again for all motivating words in your email. I even got enlarged the part about consistency and stick it to the wall in my working studio.

With kind regards and outstanding respect from Slovenia!​

My personal goal was to get definition, a little size and have low body fat. I would roam from one workout routine and/or supplements to the next. I was highly disappointed with the results and ended up skinny fat. In addition I battled through quite a few injuries over several years due to overtraining. I then came across the MuscleNOW bodybuilding program which promised to show you all aspects of weight training and dieting. It 100% delivers on exactly what it says.

MuscleNOW offers a complete system and you can make your goals whatever you wish. If you want to gain size adjust the diet according to the system. If you want to maintain and slowly build up keep the workout routine and adjust your diet. The system for me was able to deliver the exact results I wanted – decrease body fat and build muscle. The workout aspect of the system is comprised of fundamental weight lifting exercises with variations in reps, timing between sets and grip/stance depending on the exercise. The approach prevents from over-training and keeps you from plateauing. The most difficult part of any bodybuilding program (the diet) is straight-forward and easy to understand.

The best part if you have a question about any aspect you can send an email and within 24 hours you not only get your question answered but Francesco provides additional information that expands your overall fitness knowledge.

With any fitness training you have to be prepared to work. Do the work, follow the system and I guarantee you will not be disappointed.​

It’s just absolutely amazing how fast my body’s changed since starting with the MuscleNOW bodybuilding program. I have just started on my 3rd cycle so that means I’ve been doing it now for around 13 weeks. I was working out pretty hard core for about 8 months before getting this program. I did increase in my strength on my workouts but I also got fat and you couldn’t really see any of my muscle. Using this program, I’ve changed all that. I see guys in the gym working out pushing an enormous amount of weight but they look like fat couch potatoes! If I saw them outside of the gym I would never imagine in a million years that they’ve ever even seen a gym. I used to wonder when I saw them why they don’t look better than they do. Well, now I know. They’re not using a program like this to change the way they look. This program will transform you!!

​I’ve realized just how important it is to eat the right things, when, and how much. All of these factors play important roles. Francesco’s program has taught me how to do it all. Mind you, I NEVER knew anything about looking at food labels and measuring my meals or any of that before starting this program. It’s taken time and practice. Now, I’ve gotten much better. Francesco has been there every step of the way for me. Most every time I email him for something, I get a reply the next day.

I would like to tell you that life has taken me to start my own business as a publisher of a health newspaper here in Hong Kong. I bought the franchise from California and am operating here now. I would have never done any of this without your MuscleNOW program! I've gotten my brother in Florida onto MuscleNOW and it seems that he really likes it as well.​

I want to write you to thank you for designing this wonderful program. I had just finished six weeks of the fat loss phase and have begun a new cycle of the muscle building phase. The result has been both physically and mentally rewarding. I am 5'6" tall. My waist was 35" when I first started. By the time I had completed the first cycle, my waist dropped to 28". My chest and biceps, however, have grown an inch respectively, looking firmer and bigger as the fat level assuaged.

​I worked out with three trainers before and had tried many different theories, methods, and supplements. Last year, I had even given in to steroid precursors, which bulked me up to 180 lb. While my chest, arms and legs became massive and solid, I ended up with a 37" stomach. From a holistic medical standpoint, I also experienced side effects that were related to liver and kidney toxins, and had a compromised immune system. I found that a lot of steroid users who recommended ways to administer these products and workout programs were highly uneducated and misinformed. The result was that my body would entail an increasing dosage of these products and supplements, whereas the accompanying training was often so strenuous that attending a gym had gradually become a burden. I did quit training for half a year after a minor work-related injury. Needless to say, the cost of purchasing these supplements made one wonder if bodybuilding was equivalent to creating debts.

Your MuscleNOW bodybuilding program is a gift of which everybody who is interested in training would dream. It has answered every question that has been puzzling me for the past seven years. After reading the material, I have been feeling that you, a sagacious and earnest trainer, have been always with me to motivate my workout. The program has not only changed my physique, and has encouraged me to keep attaining an increasingly higher and practical goal with patience and perseverance. It has truly maximized my physical and mental potential. It has certainly boosted up my immune system, and I would not hesitate to admit that it has even increased my hormonal level in a positive, constructive, and natural way. I have also noticed a very affirmative energy within me that helps my life and creative work in general. In other words, what I have gained from your program is beyond a physical transformation.

Once again, I would like to thank you again Francesco for your work, and I am grateful to have the opportunity to learn from you. I am sure that this is only the beginning and I will experience something similarly or even more amazing as I progress by following your program.

I have not stopped using your program ever since I have purchased it seven months ago. My body fat level kept lowering and I have finally achieved a level of definition, especially on my abs and arms, of which I have never dreamt before.

Once again, this is a truly amazing program.​

I want to thank you for a great bodybuilding program. MuscleNOW has given me amazing muscle and strength gain in a short period of time. As you promised, I have seen weekly improvements, especially in the beginning. I had some training experience before I started, but the program taught me how to both eat and train properly, and the results speak for themselves. It WORKS. What made me buy the MuscleNOW program? I thought your testimonials seemed sincere and honest. Then I gave it a try, and in 5 months I gained 2.3 inches on my arms, 2.4 inches on my chest, 44 lbs on my bench press, 121 lbs on my deadlift, 55 lbs on my shoulder press and 85 lbs on my seated row.

​MuscleNOW alone is the reason behind my success. Best regards and God Bless.

Thank You! Thank You! Thank You! Thanks to your extremely well thought out MuscleNOW natural bodybuilding program I am finally on the road to having the body I always wanted. It's everything you said it would be and more. No, It's more than that. It's everything I need to know about eating right and working out to get the body I want and it will last me for the rest of my life. The funny thing is, I am not working out any harder or dieting any more stricter than I was in the before picture. I am just following your MuscleNOW system. On my path to develop an athletically functioning, strong, good looking body, I read a lot of muscle magazines and trained the way they said to train and ate the way they said to eat. All that happened was I got frustrated and burned out. Let me explain, after doing their "mass gain" diet and exercise routine I was at my fattest having put on almost no muscle (the only mass I gained was in my butt and belly!) Then after doing their "lean" routine (this is the before picture) you can see I have almost no muscle! My self esteem was in the dumps. I felt like I just had the wrong genes to look the way I wanted to look. I was really in the dumps.

​After a friend pointed me to your MuscleNOW site, I decided to invest money in myself and get your course. I justified the price with the fact that you said I wouldn't have to buy any supplements and since I was already spending over $200 per month on creatine, protein, and stimulant drinks (amongst others) I figured it would pay for itself right away.

I started using the system the 1st day I got it. I started seeing results on the 5th day, and the results haven't quit yet! What a bunch of B.S. in those magazines! What a bunch of B.S. about those supplements! Those models in those magazines must be steroid users, and those stupid routines and complicated exercises must be written to sell supplements. I think they give you bad routines then once you don't get any results, they tell you it's because you NEED these supplements! At least, that's what I fell for.

Now my self esteem is unshakeable because I know that the way I look doesn't have anything to do with my genetics or buying supplements that somebody wants to sell me, it only has to do with me using the MuscleNOW bodybuilding program.​

Hi Francesco, I just wanted to thank you. About three and a half years ago, I had nothing going for me, I failed out of a nationally ranked and renowned college, loved drinking, and ate whatever and whenever I wanted, and took up smoking to relieve stress. I was 5'6", and a very sloppy 210 lbs. Unhappy and depressed about my current situation, I knew I needed something to help boost my self esteem and my life, because if not, I was going to hit rock bottom, and it wouldn’t have been pretty. It was then that I accidentally stumbled your MuscleNOW website, and immediately ordered your program. It provided the backbone, information, and motivation I needed to lose just about 50 lbs of unwanted fat in about 7 months. I started looking better, feeling amazing, and surprisingly the way people treated me even changed drastically (it’s sad that people base so much on looks, but it’s true). I went from a sloppy 210, to a decently toned 162.

"I owe my bodybuilding success to you and MuscleNOW."

​Now, I have incorporated your basic bodybuilding principles to my life, and I am actually on my way up. I’m working toward my bachelors degree in communications, and I am a certified personal trainer at a local health center (a very respected one in the area at that) and love what I do. After I lost that weight, I went from a slim and slender 162 lbs. to a presently solid 225 lbs (still at 5’6”), and this was done naturally, which is the best part. I’ve been putting on weight so fast that people accuse me of being a steroid user all the time.

I just wanted to let you know that you have changed my life, and I’m very grateful that there are people out there like you. I always speak very highly of MuscleNOW seeing how I owe my personal bodybuilding success to you and your program, and I also know that the bodybuilding mentality that was sparked from reading MuscleNOW contributed to my personal success in life!

Thank you again. Hope all is well, and God Bless!​

I have to say that MuscleNOW is the best bodybuilding program out there on the market. I had started working out at age 18 at 115 lbs standing 6 foot tall. When i got to 21 I weighed 160 and hit a plateau for about a year. I did not gain an ounce for a year until I ordered the MuscleNOW program. Within the first two 6 week cycles I gained 15 pounds of solid muscle and I am on my quest to tip the scale at 200 pounds. I live by the truth and the MuscleNOW program is the best!!! Thank you, Francesco Castano for a life changing way of natural bodybuilding!!! It has changed my life!!!

"Thank you for a life changing way of natural bodybuilding."

I've had your program for about 2 months now and my results have been dramatic. Especially because I haven't really been able to follow your program to a "tee" because of time restrictions and injuries. However, I was at 6'1 206 lbs when I started and as good as I looked then, I look even better now. My abs are starting to show, my muscles are more defined and I even look bigger. It is such a relief to know that I no longer need to take supplements to look the way I want to. MuscleNOW is accurate, honest, and very affordable. Francesco has spent a lot of time talking to me on email, sometimes about nothing that has to do with weight training. He delivers everything he offers on his website, and then some!!!!! Good people usually deliver good things, and MuscleNow is nothing short of that.

The body is such a unique thing. It’s amazing how much it can grow and become stronger in such a short time, but what does it need to do this? Well i found out when I ordered the MuscleNOW bodybuilding program. It tells you exactly what you need to have for your diet and what exercises to do. When diet and exercise combine, the body explodes in muscle size and strength, and the best thing about it is no supplements whatsoever, NONE! I never liked the idea of taking supplements and never did even before I started this MuscleNOW program. I have worked out for about a year and a half and have never had gains in muscle size and mass compared to what this single program has given me. My strength in some exercises has tripled in just a matter of months! I’m living proof of what this system can do for anyone. Some people have spent years in the gym and have not achieved the size/strength gains that I have. Why?? Because you have to have the right diet and exercise, not advice from some steroid bodybuilder. All your answers are in the MuscleNOW program. So if you want to change how you look in the shortest amount of time and safely without steroids or supplements, then MuscleNOW is the answer.

In a matter of 3 months my arms grew about 2 inches, my chest grew 2 inches, and I packed on 20 pounds of solid muscle. Not fat, but pure muscle. Leg press went from 300 lbs on a good day to 920 lbs for a good 10 reps! Bench press has doubled in strength, from 105 to 215 lbs for a good 5 reps. Shrugs, from 180 to 430 lbs! Preacher curls, from 80 to 145 lbs.

I now have gained even more weight, another 20 lbs of muscle for a total of 40 lbs since I started MuscleNOW. You can see that my back has grown a lot, the muscles are bigger and more defined. My lifts have also increased a lot, as I am now bench pressing 275 for 4 reps, shoulder pressing 210 for 3 reps, and deadlifting 400 for 4 reps. I’m still amazed at how well the MuscleNOW program works, and the fact that I’m deadlifting 200+ lbs over my body weight is amazing. Dedication + MuscleNOW = the body of your dreams.

All I got to to say is that there is no other bodybuilding program that comes close to what MuscleNOW can do. I want to personally thank you Francesco, not only for all the time and effort that you put into this system but for answering all my questions that I had.

Thanks again and God bless.

I would like to thank you for your awesome bodybuilding program! Everything is laid out plain and simple. I followed MuscleNOW for a solid 9 months in preparation for the Mr. Idaho State Natural contest. When the day was over, I walked away with the overall title of Mr. Idaho. I couldn't have accomplished this without the MuscleNOW bodybuilding course (and your email support). I would recommend MuscleNOW to anyone who is looking to improve their physique. I have tried a lot of other programs out there, but nothing compares to this one. Also, I would like to inform you that my wife has been training with your program and is achieving phenomenal results. She plans to compete next year so plan on adding another testimonial. Thanks for your awesome program!

I just wanted to thank you for an amazing bodybuilding program that has changed my life. I was introduced to MuscleNOW by a good friend of mine who also has a testimonial on your web site. Before MuscleNOW I was as confused as anyone else on training techniques, nutrition, and supplements. I had spent countless hours in the gym trying to get results. MuscleNOW has given me the knowledge of proper techniques and nutrition that have gotten me to where I am today and where I'll be in the future. Proper nutrition combined with proper weight lifting techniques is the formula for success. I was always a hardgainer growing up, always worked out but just couldn't pack on any muscle. The diet and weight training techniques in MuscleNOW helped me to learn how to get over that and pack on good lean muscle. I'm glad I have the knowledge MuscleNOW offers because I'm no longer an easy target for supplement pushers. If you buy this program, it's the best money you'll ever spend. Have faith and follow what MuscleNOW teaches.

​Thanks Francesco!!!

This is my eighth week on your program and I am seeing awesome results. One body part that I've noticed really getting big is my biceps. Before they didn't have that much height, but now they look really awesome. I just wanted to say thanks for providing me with your help. I truly would have never made the gains I've been making without your help. I've tried all the pro bodybuilding training programs and diet programs, but have all failed. I've made more gains in this past 8 weeks than I have in 1 1/2 years. For everybody reading this, I really suggest you invest in the MuscleNOW program. ​Thanks and God Bless.

I bought your program three years ago. I have read a lot of training systems and I also have an ISSA personal trainer certificate. I consider your MuscleNOW program to be the best!!! I started to train again at the age of 38 years old, after 20 years of a bad life. During these years I was a jazz trombone player so I live on drinking and smoking a lot. Then after an operation of gall bladder that make me only 59 kg of body weight on height of mt. 1.75, I want to change my life, so I transform my cellar into a home gym. I know nothing about frequency, diet, etc. so I spent two years train hard but with no results, I don't transform my body, no muscles gained and no fat lost. I also read a lot of training systems and visit all the web's sites about body building and fitness. Finally I find MuscleNOW by Francesco Castano and all the things about training and nutrition became clear and effective. After one years I change completely my body at 42 years old as showed on photo!! Today I am a personal trainer ISSA certified. For those who like to deep the knowledge, there are thousands of programs to study, but for who want only change his body, the few pages of MuscleNOW are all you need. Whatever method, course, web site, instructor, personal trainer, it is good if he teaches the same things written by MuscleNOW, otherwise is complete rubbish!

I started at 145 lbs, and increased my weight to 175/180 lbs. All the muscle I gained was put on using your MuscleNOW bodybuilding program. I could never gain weight before I tried MuscleNOW. By the way, my brother who doesn’t workout still weighs 145 lbs. So it’s in my genes to be skinny. Following your MuscleNOW program, I put on about 2.5 inches on my arms and about 5 inches on my chest. Your program is the best I have ever used. Very straight forward, and no guess work. Also, the diet is very simple to follow. My bench press went form 155 max to 230, curl went from 40 lbs to 105 lbs. People actually accused me of being on steroids, including my mom and grandma who knew I was on your program. I would recommend MuscleNOW to anyone who wants to go to the gym and actually be productive. I appreciate everything you and your program have done for me. Thanks again!!!

I have been using your MuscleNOW bodybuilding program for 9 months and the results are incredible. Your program worked for me and everyone I see I tell them that I use MuscleNOW to keep myself fit and in shape. I am now pursuing a modeling career and I thank you for helping me by writing this program. I can't say enough positive things about it, my results speak for itself.

I just wanted to write you and tell you how amazing your MuscleNOW natural bodybuilding program is! I have been using MuscleNOW for around 3 years now and I have to say that I owe you a lot more than the money I paid for your program! Before using MuscleNOW, I had a thorough knowledge of bodybuilding and nutrition. I had worked at a couple gyms, and various supplement shops. I also had a bodybuilding show under my belt (which I placed 2nd in the northwest natural comp), but your MuscleNOW program has basically brought everything I knew into perspective while helping me see a couple new techniques and how to incorporate them into my lifestyle. MuscleNOW also helped me with my nutrition. I have had a couple different training partners in the last 3 years and both have made very impressive gains as well! My friend Jason started lifting with me weighing 300 + lbs. and is now at present, 230 lbs with approx. 15 % body fat.

I just want to say to anyone reading this: Francesco has truly made an easy to use natural bodybuilding program that can help anyone achieve his or her goals whether it is to compete or to get in shape. I don't care if you are 50 years old and think its too late to get in shape. This program will truly help you!​

With this program, I truly stay in shape ALL YEAR LONG. I never get above 8 percent body fat. And that is because, like Francesco, I have chose to make this program a lifestyle rather than just a summer program. Thanks again!​

I just wanted to say thank you for a great program. I have been following your MuscleNOW bodybuilding formula for roughly two years now, and I have been in the best shape of my life. Before I started MuscleNOW, I only weighed 137 pounds and was as skinny as a pencil. Once I began your program I saw immediate results. I now weigh 182 pounds and my arms, chest and legs have all seen muscle growth. My chest went from 36 inches to 44, and my arms are at 15. I even went from bench pressing 210 pounds to 320. Even with my busy schedule I am able to implement your program. It's easy to follow and I have recommended it to my friends. ​When I buy a product, I am usually skeptical, but with MuscleNOW, I have no reservations recommending it to anyone. I plan on continuing your MuscleNOW program and I thank you for helping me to reach my goals.

I purchased your MuscleNOW program because I was tired of being the 120 pound weakling I had been for the first 36 years of my life. After searching the web for different programs that I thought would fit my desire of adding a little beef to me I stumbled on your site. After reading it and the other testimonials I thought this would be the one for me. I had no desire to be a bodybuilder, and just wanted to add a little meat to my body. I also had no desire to start taking all of the supplements and junk the other places want you to use. I had used weight gainer at one point in time and gained about 10 pounds, and as soon as I stopped taking it I lost all of it. So anyway I ordered your MuscleNOW program and read it cover to cover like you said and when I was done thought "Wow this guy really makes sense." And so I started. I saw results almost immediately. I started at 123 pounds, a 27 inch waist and about 10 inch biceps. I am now 38 years old at 137 lbs, a 30 inch waist and 13 inch biceps.

​I know the slower results are of my own fault. I started lifting at home and due to my schedule I could only start lifting at about 9 or 9:30 in the evening. I also was lifting in my basement which got pretty cold in the winter, living in northwest Pennsylvania. With these factors it was often hard to get the motivation to go and lift. I have since joined a gym, which I really enjoy, and making myself get up in the morning and go in. I have found it gives me a lot more energy for the day after a good work out in the morning.

The MuscleNOW program is truly great for natural weight lifting, and I would recommend it to anyone.​

When I came across the MuscleNOW natural bodybuilding program, it was because I had been using supplements in a very dangerous way. In the end I blew out two nerves in my left shoulder rendering it completely useless. I could barely lift my dinner plate. I also damaged nerves in my groin area as well, which caused a lot of problems, however i won't go into details about that. But I started your program five months ago and worked very diligently until now. I ended up gaining about an inch in both arms and an inch in my chest. I was also able to get my washboard abs, and a butt which I was lacking in. I have so many people saying looking buff today bro, have you been lifting, dude you're huge! And to be honest I do not mind hearing it.

​I would encourage anyone to try the MuscleNOW program. Push yourself and you will see results! My progress has been so great that I've been accused of taking steroids twice! I just smile and say nope I'm on MuscleNOW. To just show you how much I have improved when I first started Francesco's program I only benched 115, now I'm up to 180. I squatted a paltry 135, now I'm up to 255. I could only curl 45 when I started and now I'm up to 95. You'll get the results you're looking for with MuscleNOW, I promise you! Last thing, anytime I had a question Francesco was more than willing to help me out, no matter how stupid my question was. He truly is a great man, and he will help you become what you wanna be!

This whole experience with MuscleNOW has made me want to switch my major into physical therapy or something like that where I can understand how different muscles work. You're the man Francesco, thanks for kick starting my lifting and dieting.​

My priority was to practice bodybuilding the way it should be, NATURAL, and that’s why the discovery of your MuscleNOW program has been for me a gift from GOD. In so many years I would never imagine I could get such results with my busy lifestyle and most of all without supplements or drugs and that’s why I thank you again from the heart. Your MuscleNOW program works, no need for supplements, no drugs, just dedication pumping iron and a strong diet. Your email support is worth 10,000 more times the price of your course. Thanks so much Francesco for sharing with us your effort to build a strong and healthy body and for helping us to achieve it!

​People notice my body changes and they worry that i will get huge! They keep telling me not to get bigger than I am now. Francesco, let me thank you again for all of your hard work and for helping me through email whenever I ask. The money I spent for your MuscleNOW course has been the best spent in 16 years of weight training, where I wasted thousands of euro on useless supplements and magazines before I found you.

God Bless you!​

It has been a while since I last wrote but I wanted to send you some before and after pics of myself. The first one I was 142 pounds before starting your MuscleNOW program. The second one is a year later at 205 pounds. But three months after starting MuscleNOW I had gained 30 pounds. Also my measurements in the first pic were 13.75 inch arms and the last pic 17.25. Chest first pic 38 inches second pic 44 inches. Legs first pic although not shown 21 inches second pic 27 inches. My calves never grew that well started at 14.5 ended at 16. People definitely accused me of taking steroids and said "you cant put on that much muscle that quick naturally" but I know otherwise. Thanks for everything Francesco and God bless. I will keep you updated on my current progress.

This is my story, and I hope it can inspire some of you. I began lifting weights when I was around 18, and after 7 years or so of your tradition 3 sets of 8 rep I managed to gained 10 or 15 lbs. Not a great deal, and I stayed like this until about age 28. Due to the nature of my office job I then piled on pounds of fat. I went from a lean 145 lbs to a fat 183 lbs and remained like this until I was 32, when I embarked on huge amounts of aerobics to lose it. Yes, within a year and a half I lost all the fat, but I also lost all muscle that I had built up previously too, and I weighed only about 135 lbs!!! I stayed like this up to age 38, but during those years from 25 to 38 I had tried all types weight training programs including HIT, some periodization methods, high volume and also consumed the supplement creatine. None of this worked on me. Sure I got a bit stronger with HIT, but didn't gain any size. So here I was thinking that maybe I'll never gain any muscular size, when I came across the MuscleNOW website.

​I thought that I had nothing to lose, so I ordered MuscleNOW. Within the first week, my body began to feel different, as if it was charged and pumped up. Another week passed and my arms had grown half an inch from 13.5 to 14. I was shocked but excited! 3 months later my arms were 15 inches, and my weight had gone from 135 lbs to 150 lbs. I had gained in 3 months what took me 7 years previously!!! Sure, muscle memory, but now came new ground!! After another 9 months of hard work my arms were 16 inches, chest was now 42 from 37 inches and my weight was 165 lbs, which is what you see in my picture. Just 1 year of the MuscleNOW program, and I totally transformed my physique at 40 years of age.

The MuscleNOW program gives you all the knowledge you need to grow, but only you can put in the hard work. I used to train at home, but now train in the gym. I see the same guys doing the same thing for 6 months with no progress, so you need to stop wasting time and start growing.​

After only one cycle of 6 weeks, I increased weight from 175 to 191, with my waist remaining at a constant 31 inches. My arms went from 14.25" to 15.125", so almost one inch, and my strength increased as well. Then, my brother from college who hadn’t seen me in a few weeks was very impressed with my new size. It's so great to know you're gaining muscle so fast. After three months passed by, I gained 3" on my chest, 1.5" on the arms, and added a good 20 lbs And this is saying A LOT since I was in an advanced stage of bodybuilding. At the gym we train at, I am now probably the largest guy and strongest in there.

​My friend Tom gained about 15-20 lbs as well, and nearly 2" on his arms and 4" on his chest. He's getting stronger each time we workout because of his beginning stage. He's hooked on MuscleNOW, and we complement each other perfectly. If one of us is tired or lazy, we get the other one going.

"If it's size that your after, MuscleNOW is the way to go."

MuscleNOW is the best thing that has ever happened to me. Tom and I get questions all the time, such as “how do you do this, man how are ur arms so big" and so much more.

As I write this testimonial, I have been on the MuscleNOW bodybuilding program for the past three years, but unfortunately due to other areas of my life I have not been able to be on the program consistently. I finally decided to get serious and I devoted four entire months to MuscleNOW. The results? I got bigger and stronger than I ever was, much bigger. In those four months, I gained 1.5" on my arms and 3.5" on my chest, and also gained 25 lbs or so, all muscle. These gains are exceptional considering I am an advanced lifter!

I think MuscleNOW is the perfect fast gain program that beginners seek for and advanced trainers dream of. The results are quite amazing when done correctly, as you will be growing by the week. The program is laid out step-by-step and Francesco did a great job answering all of my questions that I could come up with, which weren't many because the program really explains it all. The overall knowledge in this program is worth the price itself! I am so glad I finally stuck with the program.

In my picture I weigh 215 with a 44" chest, 17.75" arms, 28" thighs. I have a 345 bench press, a 505 squat, and a 615 deadlift. I do not have a before picture available currently (perhaps in the future) so just to give an idea of what this program can do for you, here are my before stats - 175 lbs, 38" chest, 14.25" arms, 23" thighs, 230 bench press, 315 squat, and 295 deadlift, so gained 40 lbs and 3.5 inches on my arms. By the way, this is done with nothing but food, lifting, and MuscleNOW!

I have tried many routines. Max-OT, HIT training, training twice per day, training all day on a certain body part, EDT training, Vince Gironda techniques...the list goes on and on. I can safely say that if it's size you're after, MuscleNOW is the way to go.​

My name is Stephen and I began using the MuscleNOW bodybuilding program in order to shed fat and gain muscle. My sister bought the program and asked me to try it out. I had been lifting and doing minor cardio prior to starting MuscleNOW. I am 6'4" and weighed 240 pounds and had an approximate body fat of 18%. I picked a few friends to do MuscleNOW with me. One friend had very little fat and was very skinny. The others had quite a bit of fat to lose and little muscle. We followed the nutrition and training program to the letter. Within six months, I was weighing 198 pounds and my body fat was down to 7%. I could not get my body fat this low even when I was a Marine. I am also lifting 25% more weight than when I began the program. ​The skinny friend who needed to gain muscle did and the others who needed to lose fat have dropped down to 9% body fat from approximately 22% body fat. MuscleNOW has given me the body and strength I have always desired and I finally feel great about myself. I am now going to introduce this to my father who is now retired and back in the gym. I look forward to sending you his before and after shots.

COMMENTS FROM STEPHEN'S SISTER

Stephen ended up having about 8 guys following him every day doing this stuff. Some were very over weight and needed to drop fat, and others were very skinny and needed muscle. Your program worked for them all.

I thought I'd share something with you that happened to me today that I have to admit I was not really prepared for - I was in the locker room at the local community college I'm attending and had just gotten out of the shower after a workout. I overheard two guys from the weight room talking about diet and protein, creatine and stuff of that nature when I heard one of them say "yeah I want to look like that guy. Hey what do you do to get so cut?" I looked up to find them approaching me!! A recommendation to your MuscleNOW web site soon followed. 

It's interesting how you can look in the mirror and not really give yourself credit for what you've accomplished but getting a complement of that magnitude was quite a reward. ​Thanks for sharing your knowledge through MuscleNOW.

I've followed the MuscleNOW natural bodybuilding program for the full 90 day trial, in which I was able to test what it was like at putting on muscle AND stripping fat for a bodybuilding competition. The results where quite surprising, as I found I easily did both. During the first 35 days I gained strength, mass, and only slightly elevated my body fat levels. I started with a 31 inch waist, and as the program outlined, only gained 2 inches around the waist before I started dieting. During this time, my strength increased consistently, and I gained 3 inches around my chest (and back), and 1 ½ inches on my arms, on the shoulders and the legs. As I ventured on with the MuscleNOW program, following the diet DID get easier. The amount of food, and consuming the natural sugars around my workout was something I was not accustomed to, but the results speak for themselves.

​After 1 week of dieting I lost 1 1/12 inches from my waist, so I was nearly back to my starting waist measurement, the fat just melted away. You don't realize how much you have, until you lose it. It starts from you extremities, revealing the separation and vascularity of you forearms, and works its way up. Immediately my abs became clearer, veins started to run up my legs up to my knees. My quads split right down the center. What took me 10 weeks to look like last year took me 4 using this system, and I still had 2 weeks to go!!

I would recommend the MuscleNOW program to any recreational bodybuilder, as it is efficient, easy to follow, AND healthy. Following this system, you will not put the fat on like common bulking diets have you do, you will not be cutting out any food group as all groups are equally important, and most importantly, you will remain healthy through a system of exercise, diet and rest.

First of all, an extension of thanks. I was overseas to support Enduring Freedom as well as to deter North Korea. Due to manpower configuration, most of the time we had descent shifts. While there I made a commitment to your MuscleNOW program. I have always been in great shape as I grew up on the beach, but never was I serious into bodybuilding. I read MuscleNOW page to page. Within a two week period I lost an inch in my waist, gained half an inch in each arm, gained an inch and a half across my chest, and gained almost a pound. I took measures five consecutive times, with assistance in disbelief. Strength took me by surprise as well. I kept a well disciplined diet and took NO SUPPLEMENTS. Upon my returning home, family members and loved ones immediately noticed. The photo posted was taken in a classified location (I am the individual on the far left). I would just like to commend you on your MuscleNOW bodybuilding program and again thanks.

​Take care and God Bless you.

In my opinion Francesco has discovered all the principles needed to do natural bodybuilding, or to have natural muscle growth, by using intelligent planning, smart training and food. The strange thing is that if you neglect only one of these principles, you won’t have growth or success. Most of us are confused by fake knowledge spread by gyms, magazines and supplement sellers. It still seems like a strange world to me, where I think about 90% of the bodybuilders are using steroids in which case bodybuilding is not an art at all.

​I think MuscleNOW is almost the only way to do natural bodybuilding (of all the other systems you will get sick and demotivated). You must be a person with the capability of introspection otherwise you would have never discovered all of these principles.

Thank you Francesco for sharing your knowledge. I am finally able to realize my life as a bodybuilder, which before seemed impossible. With MuscleNOW, it seems like one can get bigger and bigger, really addictive and freaky even.​

I am doing something I never dreamt to do, writing a testimonial of something that changed my life and that week after week continues to. The MuscleNOW bodybuilding program works, and more than that it does miracles. It’s the first thing I ever bought over the internet. MuscleNOW is a complete natural bodybuilding guide, from the day you start till the day you decide to stop. Well I have seen a great amount of gains. The first time I saw the MuscleNOW web site I felt that this program had something special, so I decided to send e-mail to Francesco Castano and that very same day I received an answer. I was amazed! ​As many of you might know not getting answers or getting 100 different types of answers will only lead to frustration. I used to be frustrated before but since I started the MuscleNOW program I never got frustrated again because I can e-mail Francesco the author himself and get a reply that very same day. This automatically keeps me going stress free.

I am writing this testimonial out of my own will because I think a person like Francesco deserves it. He puts a lot of effort in keeping everyone happy and also knowing that his main objective is that his MuscleNOW clients will continue to see gains.

With MuscleNOW, arms where 13.5 now are 16 inches, chest was 43 now is 46.6 inches, calf was 14 now it is 17 inches. I followed the MuscleNOW program instructions word by word and the results where amazing. I could not believe how much I have grown and yes I am supplement free. I just use a protein shake if I will be outside and cannot eat and that happens rarely. I have heard comments like you are on steroids you are growing to fast, and my mum even had suspicions that I was using steroids and she did a blood test and it resulted negative. Thanks for your amazing program. Seriously I was amazed, I never saw my arm this big.

Family members that I have not seen for some time did not recognize me. It’s good, it makes me feel proud that I live the MuscleNOW life.​

I've been bodybuilding for 25 years and having done pretty much every routine possible, I can say that MuscleNOW is the best. I like how you cycle sets so you're constantly increasing the intensity and I like the rep ranges also. I haven't been this excited about a bodybuilding program in years. You have everything structured very well. MuscleNOW rules the roost as far as training routines go, and you have it all in one routine - low, medium, high sets, higher reps, lower reps, and you even throw in the intensity principles to top it off. So your constantly manipulating the muscles. Back in the day it was just going heavy all the time even when I had injuries, so I wish this routine was around years ago as I would have gotten better results and suffered a lot less joint issues.

​I have trained in most routines, even HIT, Heavy Duty, and got no muscle size or strength. When I did HIT about 5-10 years ago I don't know how one could get strong because Mentzer had his clients (my friend included) doing the reps "super slow" to supposedly trigger the "growth mechanism" in the body. Whatever!!? I can honestly say I have made more gains in muscle mass and strength using the MuscleNOW system than any other routine, and as I've mentioned before I've trained like Arnold, Franco (who are my bb idols) Yates, Mentzer you name it I've trained in it and nothing produces gains in muscle size and strength like MuscleNOW.

The trainers in the gym are asking me what supplements I am using, and when I am doing my sets they quietly go through my workout chart and weight chart that you have provided me. I want to say that if you remember around 8-10 years back when my sister ordered the MuscleNOW program for me I was 55 kgs mostly fat, and now I am over 90 kgs with around 9-10 % body fat. ALL NATURAL. I remember there were days when I started out, I used to be on my knees and in tears because my mind wanted to give up but the heart wanted to continue always. That is when I always emailed you for motivation and you did that for me always. You will not believe me but when I felt I cannot do it, I always made printout of your emails for motivation. Sometime I secretly even took the printouts to the gym when I started out. The motivation made the difference because I knew it was coming from a top bodybuilder who is natural. I started believing in myself.

​All and all I just want to say there are no shortcuts. I used Francesco Castano's program to build the solid base and foundation for around 3 years and now I have modified it to my own. However the base foundation remains the same.

The one thing that makes MuscleNOW priceless is the lifetime support. I remember asking Francesco almost everything. I think most of my questions always missed the target and were based on some foolish questions other than bodybuilding most of the times, but he always replies back.

This is a 5 year transformation all natural with a lot of blood and sweet. Remember these are raw pics no fancy lights and no fancy camera.​

God Bless.​

We appreciate the help and great advice THAT WORKED!

I have been weight training since my early 20's, I've tried many different routines and programs but they all seem to have the same result after a short time, I would hit that wall where it seemed like there was no progress anymore. Again I thought I would try something new and purchased the MuscleNOW program. For me, the most amazing aspect of this routine is that I have never hit that wall. At the age of 50 I was in the best shape, still putting on muscle and was the strongest I have ever been in my life. The wall was broken and there was consistent change month after month that was not only felt, but able to be seen. MuscleNOW is the best bodybuilding program I have ever tried and would never change to another one. Another thing that is great about MuscleNOW is that it is built to give maximum results in a short period of time in the gym, no more 2 hour workouts with nothing to show for it, some days I'm only in there for 30 minutes and at the max I'm there for 75 depending on the schedule, and for me, no matter if it is the 30 minute workout or the 75 minute workout, the results are the same, AMAZING!

I have been on and off weights ever since I was 12 years old trying to gain weight. Many told me that it is fated to my genetics and impossible. I tried many techniques. I'm not kidding. I tried reading through all the bodybuilding articles I can find online from various very well known sites. But the problem is, every one has a different opinion. Everyone is telling you to do high reps, low reps, 1 rep and so on. I tried everything. From 1 hour in the gym to 3 hours in the gym. Everything with a goal to gain muscle. ​Finally I gave up trying until I found the MuscleNOW program. I don't know how I came across it and like most people I thought it was some sort of scam. But then again to have so many wonderful testimonies and so many back up reviews I was thinking what's the harm in trying it out? He gives a money back guarantee anyway. And once I got my copy, it blew my mind how simple muscle building can be. It is a VERY powerful piece of information I was trying years to figure out! The techniques are so straight forward that anybody will be able to do them. After I started MuscleNOW I gained an average of about 2 lbs per week in muscle (healthy weight). Every time I had question, I email Francesco and he will be sure to send me a long email to make sure I understand what to do.

After trying out MuscleNOW, I'm telling you I realized that I could gain weight and muscle mass! This program taught me how. This is a serious must have for anyone hoping to gain muscle and shed that belly fat.

Oh and not to mention, after reading MuscleNOW, I ASSURE you that you will have enough information to start your own personal training service too. It is THAT comprehensive! A lot of the things mentioned in this program are things not even personal trainers know about!! Thanks so much Francesco for your help in not only changing body shape, but changing lives too.​

I am 23 years old, and would first like to start off by saying that your program has made a huge difference in my life this past year. I originally purchased your program three years ago and after so many failed attempts, I was finally able to put all of your principles to use this past year. I started off at 240lbs. and a 43 inch waist. I was the type of person that looked kind of muscular and big with my shirt on, but off, I just looked plain fat and sloppy. So I decided to go on your fat loss program, and as a result of the rapid results I stayed on it until this day. I am currently 165 lbs. and have a 27 inch waist. Hopefully my testimonial will motivate people to get on your program and stick with it. I have told many people about your program and even swear by it.

​I think I will stick with the fat loss program just a while longer so that I can achieve more definition, especially in the abdomen region. Then I will switch to the muscle building phase.

I'm 54 years old so it ain't easy, but I'm motivated! Thank you for all you've done for me so far, I'm so pleased with the results. I've lost 117 pounds in 7 months now, I've lost at least 18" off my waist, I'm back to sleeping in a bed (before your program, I was sleeping in a recliner because my lower back won't let me lay in a bed). Yesterday I did 315 on the dead lift for the first time in probably thirty years, what a great feeling. Shrugs are up to 375. I just got home from the gym and I caught myself running up and down the stairs. Took a picture this weekend thought you'd like. Now you can see the improvements I've been telling you about. As you can see from the picture, I'm half the man I used to be, thank you Francesco.

​Before purchasing your MuscleNOW program, my back was so bad that I became dangerously obese. Listening to doctors who wanted to give me pain pills and then operate on my spine was pretty detrimental to my health. I read your web page and decided to go back to lifting weights, I hadn't lifted in at least twenty five years, but knew it was worth a try instead of surgery. Before your MuscleNOW program, it required both of my hands to pick up a gallon of milk. Now I do deadlifts with over three hundred pounds. How's that for progress?

This is a lifestyle, not a muscle building or fat trimming program. It's a lifestyle change that will add many useful years to my life, I feel like I'm 34 instead of 54 and there's plenty of 34 year olds down at the gym who can't even pick up the bar I do my deadlifts with, or my shrugs, all 375 pounds of them. Imagine what I'll be lifting next summer! I hope I can inspire someone to do it. It's not easy and you have to do it for yourself. Nobody can give you the motivation as it's got to come from you. MuscleNOW is the plan that saves a lot of heartache and pain trying to find something that works. I thought I knew what I was doing when it came to weight lifting, but you put it all together with a diet and detailed plans that work if I just put it into practice. Your workout routines and diet have made this possible for me in such a short period of time. I can't thank you enough for your personal correspondence. That has made this all work, as you've answered everything I've asked and it's pointed me in the right direction.

Thank you so much Francesco, I feel like a new man and a new man that's getting younger and stronger by the day. What a great program you have made, as I'm seeing the results quicker than I would have ever thought possible for someone 54 years old. I feel twenty years younger than that.

All I have to provide is the body and the time and effort, as the MuscleNOW program is flawless, your money back guarantee is safe, and anyone who works the plan will get the results. If they ask for their money back it's their personal failure not your program’s failure, you've done just what you promised, provided the needed diet and exercise program.

I asked my wife if she would try working out with me and eating the right way as Francesco had taught me to do. She was hesitant at first but said she would certainly try it. Much to my great pleasure she not only tried it but she tried it with such vigor that I had to contact Francesco about SLOWING her muscle gain. My wife took the the program with such determination that she was doing her sets to failure and fast reps, eating exactly what we were supposed to and making changes so fast I was amazed. This is a woman who has never lifted a weight in her entire life. My wife, Donna, has lost five inches from her waist in just four incredible weeks! She began to ask about the muscle mass gain she was experiencing. That is when I contacted Francesco for more personal help for my wife and I. The lifetime support I get from the MuscleNOW program has been invaluable.

My wife had the most amazing gains I have ever seen in ANYONE, man or woman. Needless to say I am very proud of her. I can not tell you how wonderful it is to have your mate sending the time and energy with you to improve yourselves and literally increase the years we will have to spend together.

Thank you again Francesco. You have changed my life forever, and now that includes my wife's life as well. We both thank you.

I'm now the national lightweight subchampion. I just won second at the National Independence Pro Cup. I just want you to know that the nutritional knowledge you provided was a GREAT HELP, THANKS! I've been comparing my before pictures with the ones of this competition and the difference in size and hardness are obvious.

I bought the MuscleNOW bodybuilding program years back, but could start it seriously only this April. I started out at 90 kgs, and have been 12 weeks on the fat loss portion of your program. My pics show a dramatic transformation. I must admit that due to fact that I had loads of fat on my body (and bad genetics, everyone in my family is really fat), I gave the fat loss phase a bit long, so all the previous 12 weeks I was on fat loss cycle. I have now lost all the fat I wanted, and as I write this I have started the muscle building portion. I am sure impressed by the fact that my waist (on the navel) has gone from 36 to 31.5 (I have a wide hip bone and can’t go any smaller, but there is hardly any fat). I have become quite defined and my abs are beginning to show. Just for reference in future these were my initial measurements:

​Waist at the navel was 36”, and now it is 31.5”. Waist at the pant line was 34”, and now it is 29.5”. Biceps were 13 1/8”, and now it is 13 2/8”. I guess my body fat at 20% when I started, and now at 7%.

I am still half in amazement that someone like me could show abs. Hats off to MuscleNOW. I have not gained in chest/biceps since I was on fat loss, but they have become solid and hard, while earlier they were quite soft (spongy, if you may). The measurements on the arms and chest are nearly the same, but as would be obvious from the pics, the fat has been replaced by muscle. Now I am looking forward to putting amazing muscle and do you proud.​

I first saw Francesco’s website in 2001 and I wish I would have taken him up on his offer then because MuscleNOW is truly the program that I had been searching for ever since I walked into a gym at the age of 16. After a few years passed by, I finally ordered the program and in my first three months achieved fantastic results. So much so that my arms were gathering attention wherever I went. Things were going great and then BOOM! I had a car accident that took me out of training for almost 2 years. Once I was cleared to go again I emailed Francesco immediately and he modified the MuscleNOW program recommendations to help ease my way back into the gym. I had put on some fat and decided to concentrate on fat loss. Within three months, once again I had great results and slimmed down to a size that was adequate for me to once again begin muscle building. Thanks to MuscleNOW, I was able to achieve my long-term goal earlier this year of reaching my first year college body fat measurement of 13% (I was at 20% when I started)! I was even able to lose a little bit more off the waist, even though I went on the muscle building portion of his program and am now able to fit into size 32 jeans! This is something I haven’t been able to do since I was in junior high!

​The MuscleNOW program works, plain and simple, and best of all no supplements are required. Just real food, time and equipment are all you need. The best part of the MuscleNOW program for me is that Francesco gives free lifetime personal training via email. You wont get that from a book you buy at a bookstore and even most online. I have probably emailed Francesco more than he would like and never once did I ever receive any rude emails or bad service. All emails were answered within very reasonable amounts of time. Don’t hesitate to try MuscleNOW for yourself, you have nothing to lose. I’m the biggest skeptic, but after having hit a plateau early in my training career, I needed help. I finally found it and now I am going to use Francesco's program to take my physique to new heights. I still have a way to go to achieve my ideal physique, but now I am sure it will be possible with MuscleNOW!

The MuscleNOW bodybuilding program is great and I would recommend it to anyone! I have seen awesome results. I went from 207 to 164 in weight and my waist from 36” to 31” in about 2-3 months. In a few more months I am going to compete in a bodybuilding show. It’s great, I am so happy.

I just want to thank you; I am a Doctor of Chiropractic and found myself grossly overweight. I was gaining weight slowly over the last several years, and my busy practice seemed to have distracted my attention. One day I found myself getting very tired after playing with my 5 year old boy. I knew then I couldn’t put off losing the excess weight any longer. Now as a doctor, I have some training in physiology and nutrition. However, I had very little experience in practical application of that knowledge. I began a search for information regarding application of nutrition and exercise to lose weight, and I came across your website MuscleNOW.com. After reading the information at the website and pondering for several days, I realized that what you had fit very well with my concepts and philosophy as a Chiropractor. I quickly ordered your program MuscleNOW, and waited patiently for it too arrive.

​After receiving your program, I sat down and read it immediately. I was very impressed with the depth on knowledge and with the ease of understanding. Once finished I began to apply the information for the fat loss phase, which I am currently working on. The results have been amazing.

I had a 46 inch waist, 35% body fat, and weighed 250 pounds at a height of 5'11 1/2". After following your fat loss program for a little under 4 months, I have lost a total of 58 lbs (current weight of 192 pounds), 12.5 inches from the waist (now 33.5 inches), and 19.5 percentage points from my body fat (currently 15.5%). I still have a few pounds to go before I reach my goal weight of 175 lbs, at which time I will start to sculpt the lean mass using the muscle building phase from Francesco’s program.

I thought I would show you my progress to date, which up to now is my 6th month. In my before picture (yes this picture used to be me just 6 months ago) my weight was 208 lbs with a 39" waist at 6ft tall. My after picture is 172 lbs and my waist is 33" inches. Fat has literally fell off me. I have started the MuscleNOW phase and so far I am growing gradually each week with very minimal body fat! I can't believe how much fat I have lost looking back now at how much I have changed! I would not of believed it at the start that your Fat Vanish program could be so potent and change my body so dramatically and also teach me about patience and discipline not just in training but all aspects of life.

"Fat has literally fell of of me."

​Thanks again for every bit of your help you have given me, even the stupid questions I may of asked!

I started my transformation weighing in at 412 LBS. My current weight is 180 LBS, I was able to lose 232 LBS in only 17 months with the Fat Vanish & MuscleNOW program. I feel so much better and happier, I have been able to do things that I would have never imagine myself being able to do. I have been fat since I was a kid and I was never able to do some of the things such as push ups, pull ups or even run for a long time. As I started to lose the fat and get stronger, I am able to do all of those things and more. I also feel great knowing that I can just go to the mall, order normal size clothes out of a catalog or online and purchase what I like and not having to settle for a limited collection of very large clothes just so they can fit my overweight body.

"I am eating foods that taste great and are very healthy."

​Sticking to the Fat Vanish recommendations has been easy because I am eating foods that taste great and are very healthy. I purchased the program but didn't use it until 4 years later. I knew that in order to change your body you have to believe in yourself and change your mind. The before picture that is posted as part of this testimonial is not me at my heaviest weight, as it shows me at over 300 LBS but not at 412 as I stopped wanting to be in photos as I got bigger.

Having Francesco Castano to answer all of the questions that I had was priceless. Francesco is very knowledgeable and helpful and continues to provide me with great suggestions. I have had the program over 5 years and he still answers my questions, now that’s what I call an amazing trainer. One of my regrets is not taking pictures of myself at the start of my transformation, when I weighed 412 LBS.

My before and after body measurements: starting weight was 412 lbs, and I now weigh 180 lbs. My stomach started at 59”, and it is now 35”, and my shirt size was 5-6 XL, and is now Large.​

I bought the MuscleNOW natural bodybuilding program about 10 years ago or so, when I stumbled across the MuscleNOW.com internet page one day. It was a random visit to Francesco’s website, but I found it very interesting so I just read the pages over and over again. I was loving what I read so much because it seemed legit and honest! I have trained many years with trial and error, and with injuries all the time stopping me from succeeding in building real muscle! ​So I emailed Francesco with tons of questions over a long period of time concerning the program. Guess what? He answered me every single time within 24 hours period. Always polite and in easy to understand words. So I decided to order the MuscleNOW program! I did the program for 3 solid months and gained more muscle than I ever thought possible! I show you here my after picture, no fake, no scam, just hard work day in and day out. Start to build the body of your dreams today. Don’t go through years of trial and error, because Francesco has already done it for you. If you are looking for an all in one bodybuilding program, this is it! I am proof that this MuscleNOW program works. Being consistent is key! If there are other people out there who want to build real muscle fast, buy this program today. Francesco is always helpful and polite, taking away all the guess work and gives you more then what you payed for. So my advice is, buy it now, because you will never regret it!

Your only worry will be that you will have to change your clothes when your arms begin to grow like grass.​

In my first month using Fat Vanish I lost 20 lbs and 4 1/2 inches. It is easy to follow and I still get to eat my favorite foods. My 14 year old daughter has been doing this with me and she has lost 15 pounds. Now it has been 4 months on Fat Vanish, and I have lost 38 lbs and went from a size 14 to size 6. Thank you for the awesome plan.

Several years ago, I found FatVanish.com and I became excited again about the potential to lose weight. I was doing great on the Fat Vanish Life change until I had a major life hiccup and fell into some depression after a bad break-up (you know how some of us women can be). Upon starting I weighed a hefty 225 lbs with a 45 inch waist. I am proud to say that by changing my lifestyle to match the Fat Vanish recommendations, I lost 93 lbs and now have a 25-inch waist. Because of the Fat Vanish weight loss program, I not only lost 93 lbs, but I also reversed my most recent health issue of high blood pressure, chronic anemia and a high glucose level. Also, my anemia and allergies are almost non-existent. With the grace of God, I followed Fat Vanish consistently, and have seen my body go from Flab to Fab!

I am a 27 year old male and have been FAT since I can remember. In the past I had tried the latest high protein diet with not much success, I also tried the protein drinks, and the good old starvation diet. Still I only lost a pound here and gained two or three there! So I surfed the internet and found the Fat Vanish site. I had to have read the site on five or six different occasions and I finally decided I would try it. I must admit I was very skeptical, but I agreed the money back guarantee could not be beat. So I received the program and I began implementing the information from Fat Vanish around two months ago. At that time I weighed 230 lbs. By following the system and implementing all of the information I received, the weight literally started vanishing! I also joined the gym and started working out, for the first month I did cardio (running). After the second week on the plan my pants started to loosen up and I was starting to get a real good feeling about this. Well three weeks turned into four and I had lost around 23 pounds. Well here I sit typing this and its been a little over 2 months and I now weigh 180 pounds, that's a 50 pound loss and I feel great!! I had to go clothes shopping and everything. My mother told me she hasn't seen me this thin since I was six! And everyone else I run into can't believe it either, I am always getting compliments and everyone wants to know how I did it and I tell them all about the program and where to get it! I have been told I look younger, completely different etc. Now I'm at the point where So to make a very long story short, the Fat Vanish program is great, Francesco is a huge help with any questions and the first step is to order it and find out for yourself, if you follow the program you will lose that unwanted weight and you will feel better. Thanks!!

Your great program is easy to follow and has changed my life. I actually purchased both the old MuscleNOW and Fat Vanish, before I got the updated version 2 years ago. I knew both MuscleNOW and Fat Vanish worked because I gained muscle and lost fat over the years with your methods. I struggled with depression for the longest and yo-yoed up and down with my weight just letting life affect me by overeating a whole lot. I would use your fat loss methods to go down in weight when I had it in me enough mentally. I lost fat but would always go back to old habits and being affected negatively by life. So I never made a complete lifestyle change until now, as I am mentally strong now and physically also. When I used your diet and exercise methods before it was never consistent like I did this time. I can say now that I have overcome the depression finally after all these years.

"This program is the only one you will ever need to buy!"

​My before photo was taken 5 months ago, when I was 263 lbs with a 54 inch waist, at a time when I decided to finally begin following your Fat Vanish & MuscleNOW program consistently. I was almost diabetic, with high cholesterol and blood pressure. Now, I am 179 lbs with a 34 inch waist, having lost 84 lbs and 20 inches from my waist, only 5 months later, and my blood sugar, cholesterol and blood pressure are all normal! Also, before at 263 lbs my resting pulse was in the high 90s to over 100, while now it's 59 to low 60s. The health benefits are all great.

I have not been this lean with veins and everything since I was about 20. Being consistent on your plan and seeing results weekly I have really gotten a drive and determination back for life and it feels good not having the depression and obesity keeping me down. I have surpassed people that have been working out for years, and your plan is definitely the best and takes the guess work, trial and error out of it.

Francesco gives lifetime email support and answers any questions you have. He is very helpful will ensure your success. Regardless of your lifestyle and schedule, this will work for you. I have 5 kids, a wife and 2 jobs and I accomplished AMAZING results in a short time. What’s amazing is that before, when I was stressed, I would seek comfort in food, but now, I don’t think like that anymore. My mind has completely changed and with my body getting better I’m feeling so complete. It just feels great!

Thank you so much again Francesco for your support and for your work in developing an awesome plan for achieving the physique I have developed. I’m so excited to reach my final goal where I can then maintain for life. It’s still surprising me how I keep improving. When I look in the mirror it seems like I get leaner daily. I was running around and sprinting with my kids, and I'm beating them in races and not even getting winded. My intensity in the gym seems to improve every week too.

I will definitely recommend your MuscleNOW and Fat Vanish plan to anyone trying to reach their fitness goals, and I thank you for your continued support, and for your vision to help as many as possible reach their goals. If you’re looking to change your life, then get this program, as it is the only one you will ever need to buy!

I'm just so excited and amazed with how things are going.​
