Hi Anthony,
I guess I have not been really upfront with you till now…Mainly because I enjoy your emails etc..One never stops learning…I really don’t need to gain too much, probably at a good size now esp for my age of 57…I train 4 to 5 days a week at my local gym and do some cardio from time to time…I am 5′4″ and weigh 77kgs and I can honestly say I am fairly muscular and reasonably cut..
regards
Murray

Excellent post Anthony. Very informative and some of the ideas are fundamental to life, thus they can be applied to different areas not just weight gaining.

Anthony,

Thanks for sharing such good information. The thing that changed me the most
When I was playing College Football from a pencil neck to Above Average muscle was
My mindset. I was able to fully commit mentally to the process of finding out what to eat,
Hang out with like minded people, lift heavier, and recover more aggressively. Email me as
I would like to discuss something with you. Thanks.

Thanks Anthony, your advices were extremely helpfull in changing my way of thinking, in fact I started anderstanding more about the body building mechanism.
However , there is a problem that made me still stop and think wisely about this body transforming process.
Im a skinny person who has got a belly that i would like to get rid of it, yet at the same time i want to build some muscles.
The question now is : What should i do first ?? lose some weight or gain weight ???
I really dont know what to do >>> looking forward for your reply

Has your muscle guide been updated recently? I bought it several years ago. Just want to make sure I have the latest. I really like how you lay everything out – the eating schedules, workout plans, etc.

Hi Anthony,
Of all the advise I seek for my hard gaining, yours is always the best and most applicable to me. But this latest email made me want to get all cheesy American religious shouting “Hallelujah!”

I’m going to get stuck back into it strictly now, and will stop over thinking and just stick to working out and eating lots of the right food. Simple.
Thanks Anthony!

I think every point is hilarious and sooo true!! I see Personal Trainers at my gym everyday putting women through some hooplas and more hooplas everyday and I shake my head!! Everyday some fance smacy move and weeks later – you don’t see them anymore. That thing with food – variety or results. I I know that an aeroplane will get me there faster, why take a bus!! It’s the primary reason why there’s such a high attrition rates in gyms – people want to do what they want and still get results. Sun freeze over first!!! Live charge! Put Christ in Charge
