He went off the rails several years back, was bitter, burned bridges and returned full force a year ago. I am going to buy the book as the guy is very intelligent and opinionated and strong for a lean guy. Should be an interestig read.

Went to download Spreadsheet. Appears to be the FLASH DOWNLOAD VIRUS

he never shut it down just stopped posting for a while. He came back late last year with site upgrade, started the patheon site he post on weekly, started sending out a newsletter and he is releasing his book on june 20th.

Well in typical Martin style, the book is late. But good news is, the book will be released on Monday on Amazon for those interested.

I read the book and would say it was meh. It was interesting to learn more about Martin's background, but the content I was looking for (LG method, diet, RPT) are literally cut and paste from his blog. The entire back half of the book is just his various blog posts.

Bottom line, if you just want the IF instructions, the diet plan, and the workout plan, they're posted for free on his website.

Damn you read at a quick pace.


And that's funny because the preface basically said that's what the book wouldn't be.

That’s why I’m super disappointed. Literally the entire second half of the book is blog posts and “recipes”. It didnt take long to read because only the first 6 or so chapters are new material.

I’ve honestly been pissed off all day today because I looked forward to this for months and I feel let down. It’s great for someone who is totally new to LG, but if you have followed Martin, it’s not worth the $10.

Ah ok. I'm familiar with 16:8 but how much more to it is there than don't eat for 16 hours?

Isn't that pretty much what LG is focused around?

i got the book. only a couple chapters in so far.

yea its a lot more than just the 16:8 fast. macro timing and percentages play a big part in his system.

i will try and edit the spreadsheet when i am done with the info.

and if you read patheon, he does a lot of new info on that now.

Man I don't agree at all. He has never talked about the thermogenic 7 like that. Not did he ever dwell into DIT like he did. Never talked about carbs around 100g not 60% protein diet. Not did he ever lay out his adjustments based on bf%, height ffMi and many others.


Nit done yet but so far From a scientific point I think the book is flawless and I'm not done yet.
