I remember reading experiences from guys on this board and a few others that it worked really well for gaining lean mass provided you can really stick to it and not cheat.
I tried it for a bit and I did get stronger but I was having some real issues sticking to it so I cant be a good judge.

A friend of mine who's a world level powerlifter uses the original anabolic diet to help him make weight. However, I'm not sure you can find the original plan (unless someone has a copy to loan you); it's been re-engineered as the Metabolic Diet. There's a ton of information (some specific to bodybuilders) on this site:
http://www.metabolicdiet.com
Keep in mind, this is a site promoting the sale of the Metabolic Diet and DiPasquale's own line of supplements.
I'm a competitive natural bodybuilder, and I use the Natural Hormonal Enhancement plan - you can find the book on bodybuilding.com or on extique.com (NHE website) if you're interested. It's worked wonderfully for me - the main focus is increasing natural growth hormone production (and testosterone prduction, if you're a guy). It's more of a lifestyle change too though, not just diet.
You have to be willing to make some dietary sacrificies (like pizza and beer
), but it's worth it when you start making the lean mass gains without adding fat or even while losing fat.

I've gotten stronger off of it, but I didn't gain any real size. Plus I was at sub-maintenence cals.

Keep in mind I'm a female - and natural.
My last competition was in early May; I started the NHE program on May 25, so I'd already gained back water weight. I only had 5 weeks to try to put some muscle back on before I had to start leaning out for Nationals. I gained 1 lb./week (total gain of 5 lbs.), but my bodyfat only increased by .5% - not bad at all. I used to follow a high protein, moderate carb, low fat diet, and usually only added 1 lb. of muscle (maybe) between competitions, so I'm very happy with this program.
It also fit into the way I workout anyway, so the only major changes I had to make were to my diet. It's also been much easier leaning out on this diet - I don't crave carbs or sugar at all, which is HUGE for me. Normally, I'd have problems sleeping because I craved sugar so badly. I would also do cardio 6 days/week; right now I do cardio 3-4 days a week (although the first 7 weeks of dieting I only did cardio twice/week), and these are short, 20-30 minute sessions. Much easier to live with. I'm my leanest ever, with three weeks to go before competition. I just need to figure out the refeed process better - I started to hit a wall, and I don't think NHE allows for enough carbohydrate intake during the carb load. I'm increasing my intake to 3 meals during the last 6 hours of the day, and this seems to be working better.
Sorry for the long post.

The N.H.E is a low carb diet for increase the level of IGF-1.
thank Mr. Makaveli for the site , but I've order the book in bodybuilding.com
thank JJFigure for your reply also if was too long
The N.H.E is a diet high protein as a "anabolic diet" of Di Pasquale, but is a very lifestyle and is a very news in my country (italy).
I hope that it's work for me like you.
