About this listen
Are you not seeing the results you want — despite hours and hours at the gym, and hundreds of dollars on supplements per month? If you want to build as much muscle as possible, as quickly as possible, then keep reading…
Have you been going to the gym for months now, but don’t look any different? Do you feel like, for the time invested, you should be bigger or more muscular than you currently are?
If you’ve ever felt like you’re missing a piece of the puzzle, know this: Building muscle isn’t as complicated as the fitness industry wants you to believe. You already know what to do. You just lack the confidence to do it.
This book will dispel the nonsense and reveal the truth about building muscle, so you can stop trying to identify what works and what doesn’t… and start sculpting a more muscular, more confident, and better you today.
Referencing 35 of the best scientific studies available, discover:
- How to avoid the most common programming and training mistake.
- Why “new and revolutionary” is a marketing gimmick. And how old the newest training intervention really is.
- How to tell good research from bad, so you never fall for broscience again.
- What the ideal rep range for muscle growth really is. Spoiler: It’s not 8-12 reps.
- How to quantify your training using the new, scientific formula for volume.
- The advantage hardgainers have when it comes to building muscle.
- How to make up to 63% more gains changing one training variable.
- What supplements you should consider, especially if you don’t eat meat.
- Why bench presses aren’t enough for the chest; an underrated triceps exercise for bigger arms; and why overhead presses are a waste of time.
- Simple training applications you can use right now, as well as a sample 5-day program.
- The principles of muscle growth. Understand and apply these concepts, and you will build muscle.

Story
“Eat less, move more” is incomplete. You can lose weight eating more. How? Through a process known as diet-induced thermogenesis. Diet-induced thermogenesis, the calories burned digesting and absorbing the food you eat, has a greater impact on “calories-out” than exercise. But when you restrict your caloric intake, you restrict diet-induced thermogenesis. Thus, the principle of weight loss is not consuming a very small number of calories - especially when “calories-in” increases “calories-out”.

What’s your max squat? How much ya bench? What’s your best deadlift? Can you press your body weight? Today, pushing quantifiable expressions of strength, like your maxes, is becoming increasingly ubiquitous. However, though strength may be specific, real strength is much more than a powerlifting total - it’s about resilience, capability, and adaptability. It’s survival of the fittest after all, not the strongest.

That critical point in his career launched a passion for high-intensity interval training (HIIT), allowing him to stay in shape with just a few minutes of hard effort. It also prompted Gibala to conduct experiments that helped launch the exploding science of ultralow-volume exercise

“Eat less, move more” is incomplete. You can lose weight eating more. How? Through a process known as diet-induced thermogenesis. Diet-induced thermogenesis, the calories burned digesting and absorbing the food you eat, has a greater impact on “calories-out” than exercise. But when you restrict your caloric intake, you restrict diet-induced thermogenesis. Thus, the principle of weight loss is not consuming a very small number of calories - especially when “calories-in” increases “calories-out”.

Simple, Useful, but Basic.
It gives you the truth and covers the basic things that you need. It has no gimmicks, and says everything simple enough so even a complete meat brain can understand. If you are looking for a deep dive into the science (as I was) look elsewhere. It gives you the facts that will allow you to succeed at building muscle nothing extra. Can recommend.

Invaluable reading
If you want to build muscle, this is the only resource you will need to understand what is required as it works with the principles of hypertrophy. It also provides some methods and touches on other stuff like periodization, but understanding the principles will set you up for life.
The negatives of the book are two fold,
1. It is meant to apply to everyone but as with 99% of these types of books, there is nothing mentioned about 50% of the population.
Female body building isn’t really touched upon so you have to filter out recommendations for horseshoe arms accordingly, and go elsewhere to understand how to train within your cycle.
2. The narrator has a weird reading habit of pronouncing every single letter. When he says ‘and’ within a sentence, the D is overly pronounced anD that gets really irritating.

Good refresher
Solid feedback on simplicity versus over complicating through all of the various studies out there. Stick to a process know your way if hypertrophy is the goal, progressive overload and specificity; end of story.
