I've been following the author for a while on Facebook and Instagram and find him to be educated and earnest about sharing his knowledge with others in easily understandable ways. He explains strength training and nutrition in depth and lays out the *what and why* for each topic he covers. His knowledge sharing has impacted my life in positive ways as I work to create better health with nutrition and body recomposition. I am glad to have some of his knowledge in easy book format so that I can reference the information easily and repeatedly so I can learn more about what I need to do for myself. I can't recommend it highly enough.

Gosh, I just worked through the first module. Made lots of notes, printed out the lessons so I can review them at leisure. I feel that in future lessons, too, there will be many times I need to look back to fully bore into this material. Completely enjoying how you're messing with my mind and giving the science that blow up some pre-conceived notions.

You can't have too much information. The important material you are covering can't be done in the little sound bites that we've trained ourselves to consume with our scrolling. Your scholarly approach is much appreciated. (My husband just wandered in and commented on some guidance you gave regarding workouts that resonated with him.He's very much enjoying and soaking in what you are teaching us.) I find the format easy to follow and appreciate the ability to make notes so that I can go back in the future and look at those and see how any thoughts I jotted down might have changed. Keep being authentic, Duey. Write the way you want to write, please!!!

Hi Duey! Doing good here. I’m staying right on track with nutrition and strength training. My weight went up 3 pounds but I know it’s normal to jump up and down a bit. I’ve been stalled for about 5 weeks and will probably ask my doc to increase my Zepbound dose to 7.5 mg. I’ve been staying at the 2 lowest doses since March. It’s been a busy week for me. The information you are posting is wonderful; I feel like I’m enrolled in a university class that is geared toward people learning what their minds and bodies are capable of achieving. I’ve skimmed so far but plan to print out what you’ve shared over the last few days so I can fully absorb the material; it’s important. My only issue with workouts right now are exercises like the dead bugs still pinging my back despite the great hints you gave me. But I can also say that I’ve made positive progress in that area, too. Have I told you that I’m 76 and started strength training at 75? I feel so much younger than that. My husband, Don, is 81 and we work out together at the fitness center and in our home gym. He’s exercised his whole life and I’m fairly new to the game, but I love it. As our kids tell us, “You two aren’t like our friends’ parents.”You keep me inspired. My husband is enjoying your content, too. This might be more than you want to know. But I appreciate you asking.
