Yup, fully agree with all that! Or assume I will when I reach 61, i'm sure quicker than I thought. lol
This is the book i was referring to https://www.amazon.com/dp/B006XF5BTG I also got this one because I decided to commit to his program for a year and this just makes it easier since it's a year's worth of programming and log book. https://www.amazon.com/dp/1938895231 If you step back and look at it, it's not al that different from other beginner/intermediate programs like Starting Strength, Fierce Five, etc. But yeah, I'd say this book (the first one above) was as much a help to me as Gary Taub's book (another Grant favorite) was about 8 years ago. That's the one that really got me started. 6% I couldn't do! 10 would be a more realistic goal. I'm about 11-12 now but said that's enough and starting my first lean bulk. An hour a day M-F first thing in the morning before anyone else is up is all I have time for. Kids!!! lol On Wednesday, May 23, 2018 at 2:43:54 PM UTC-5, pb wrote: > > A few random responses. > > - Looks like Mike Matthews has built quite the marketing machine, with a > variety of books and variations.
