Most diet books teach you to set short-term weight loss goals. Whether low-carb or low-fat, the typical plan goes like this: restrict your food choices, exercise until exhaustion, and swallow stacks of supplements. These “solutions” do a better job of lightening your wallet than lightening you. Meanwhile, the healthcare industry fails to prevent chronic disease. Rather than showing people how to remain healthy and prevent illness through proper nutrition, the system offers drugs and surgery to manage symptoms.

After Eric Davis spent over 16 years in the military, including a decade in the SEAL teams, his family was more than used to his absence on deployments and secret missions that could obscure his whereabouts for months at a time. Without a father figure in his own life since the age of 15, Eric was desperate to maintain the bonds he'd fought so hard to forge when his children were young - particularly with his son, Jason, because he knew how difficult it was to face the challenge of becoming a man on one's own.

He studied what he called exemplary people such as Albert Einstein, Jane Addams, Eleanor Roosevelt, and Frederick Douglass rather than mentally ill or neurotic people.

Publisher's Summary
You’ve been lifting for a few years. When you take your shirt off, do you look like a professional athlete? Do you even look like you work out?
Many so-called fitness experts defend weights and cardio like they are infallible. But where are the results? Why does almost nobody look even marginally athletic?
Fitness may be the most failed human endeavor, and you are about to hear how exercise science has missed some obvious principles that, when enacted, will turn you into the superhuman that you've always wanted to be.
In Weight Lifting Is a Waste of Time, Dr. John Jaquish and Henry Alkire explore the science that supports this argument and present a superior strength-training approach that has been known to put 20 pounds of muscle on drug-free, experienced lifters (i.e., not beginners) in six months.

Nutrition fermentation of protein
I like the idea of the fermented protein want to try the protein powder, however do want to see more data related to this. As they say people can write anything and use science. I want to see that information that it is actually 4 cal to 50 g of protein if it’s true, it would be amazing.
I went to the gym today and did Paul movements decided to use a band at the gym for individual seated row with weights and attached strap to have constant tension with only 20 kg weight. I usually use 55 kg, hit failure and strip the weight over 10 minutes, 30 seconds , I did like the constant and understand the concept of weak and strong points of exercises and do agree with this. I got a great workout and hit failure and it was great to be able to just move a little bit at the end at the Wakepoint and still have constant, however I’m not willing to buy the X3.
I made 2 kg and coincidentally I’ve been trying to eat 182 g of protein which is very hard so if this fermented protein works, it would be fantastic and so much more efficient. The cost is expensive, however when you subtract food and supplements that you don’t need While using this product as they say, I’m willing to try it for one month
I use orange juice, 600 mil of pure orange juice to spike my glucose before a workout. Use blood tests fingerprint of blood like the diabetics use and I found it takes 15 to 20 minutes to spike my glucose intense workouts to failure on exercises over 2 1/2 minutes with one set , my insulin is great and I believe the insulin being an anabolic when released from the pancreas during workout is pushing nutrients into the cells. This is what I disagree on as they suggest after a workout, but you don’t need it. I’ve been doing this for six weeks and hitting fail on everything, and not getting sore or injured, but I do like the elastic bands. Add more tension through the whole range of movement.

Any semi educated fitness professional knows the answer information they are talking about in this book. The heavy handed sales pitch for their own product is a big turn off and ruins anything worthwhile.

Don't waste your time.
It's practically just a Denoz direct ad for an over priced piece of gym equipment. They promote a carnivorous diet while saying data can be massaged to prove any point. Then go on to use the data to prove their point not realising the irony. To top this, they say the fitness industry has a 99% failure rate, not realising they are in that industry. Seriously I would give it less stars if I could. Biggest waste of time, shameless advertising for a bar and some elastic bands. I'm disappointed in Audible for recommending it.
