What readers say.

Real results from real people

Seventeen years of writing about abbreviated strength training has reached a great many people. Here is what some of them have taken the time to share.

From readers

Training that fits real life.

"When I first began weight training in the mid-1950s, I did all the wrong things: too many exercises, too many sets, working out three to four times per week. As a result my progress was very slow. Because I performed too many heavy sets of bench presses I wore down the cartilage in my shoulder, which caused permanent pain and lack of mobility. My current workouts are limited to what you prescribe and I am now making excellent progress — even though I am 68 years old. Thank you for the excellent articles on your website."

Steve Kane

"Being a busy family guy, this really helps me improve my health while having energy for work and family. Thank you for the awesome material — already applying it in the gym."

William H. — Newsletter reader

"After incorporating your system into my routine, my strength has skyrocketed. Adding muscle and bags of energy — thank you."

Peter Staples — Western Australia

Across the work.

"Lee, thank you — an amazing workout. It helped burn 24 kg of fat and I was in the best shape of my life."

Pavel Blazek — Czechoslovakia

"I am a big fan of ultra-abbreviated training routines. After getting your Ninja Strength Secrets course, I agree that time is the most important factor. Why spend three hours doing something when you can achieve the same in less than one? Thanks so much."

Paul Karpovich

"Impressive collection of routines and diet information — reading this will save you a lot of time and money on other books. The author has put serious research into the material. Covers abbreviated training, static contraction, and dumbbell work. Diet information on intermittent fasting is particularly useful."

Oddbod

"Very informative and thought-provoking content, told in an entertaining way. The stories of the actors and their trainers made it real and inspiring to follow the training that turned them into the characters they portrayed."
