I know people are going to ask for chapters on about everything, but there are just going to be some things I am not going to cover in this one.  Maybe for articles down the road, or something else.  But needless to say, I want people to be able to open this book for most training questions and find an answer.  

Everybody, do something worth fucking talking about on Monday!  

Hell yes.

  9. Dude I'm totally excited about this! I can't wait for this to come out. I will definitely be purchasing this - looks like a phenomenal tool. And I'd definitely be looking forward to a physical copy, even if I had to wait a little longer.

    Side note - in your chapter on deadlifting, you have a section called "jerking off" - I sure hope that was an intentional innuendo.

    Looking forward to it man! Congrats on this.

  10. You doing the podcast this week? I wanna know cuz I got questions for yoos guys.

    ReplyDelete
  11. When I saw the section "Strength and Women", at first I was thinking it'd be all about how to show off your muscles and strength to best attract the opposite sex. Then I realized it was probably something about the importance of strength training for women & dispelling common myths like "strength training will make me bulky", etc.

  12. Sounds sick Paul, can't wait to read it.

    ReplyDelete
  13. Sounds great and would be insightful thats for sure!,

    ReplyDelete
  14. OK here are my questions for the podcast.

    How old is the oldest chick you (or Jamie) ever banged and how old would you go overall?

    If you are looking for upper body "mass" development would someone be missing out by sticking with dumbbell presses over barbell presses?

    What would you consider "respectable" strength? Does that person have to be as strong as you? This is not to be confused with what you consider strong - I read that article.

    Which actors do you think juiced for these roles:

    Vin Diesel in "Pitch Black"

    Nicolas Cage in "Con Air"

    Ed Norton in "American History X"

    Mickey Rourke in "The Wrestler"
