Otherwise, the advice he provides is generally correct. The highest safe amount of protein one should eat is about 30% by grams. Matthews recommends a diet that is too high in protein. I agree with Matthews comments that there are way too many branded diets. Michael Matthews on Nutrition: good advice in general. I just gave you general background information - not terribly useful. And like Matthews, I still didn’t tell you exactly what to eat. That’s why research has shown that so long as they’re eating less energy than they’re burning, people lose fat equally well on high-carbohydrate or low carbohydrate diets.Įverything Matthew’s writes on his Myth and Mistake #1 is correct, but it can be said much more succinctly.

They just don’t want to be bothered with having to count something or worry about whether they can “afford” one food or another, and I can understand that.Īccording to the laws of physics underlying this principle, if you give your body a bit more energy than it burns every day, a portion of the excess energy is stored as body fat, and thus you gain weight slowly.

The First 50 Pages is nothing but a lot of general information. That should tell you how much of this book is page filler and derivative information. Bigger Leaner Stronger took me only 30 minutes to read through its 494 pages. I’ve read a lot of fitness books, 116 fitness books cover to cover. Writers, your reader’s time is valuable, don’t waste it with page filler. My Bigger Leaner Stronger Review is only a 6/10 because of the poor editing. Matthews doesn’t provide original responses to overcome any of these excuses, nor is he is a psychologist to actually provide you information. Page Filler: There are way too many pages talking about “this excuse” or “that excuse” for not exercising. The majority of this book is just reiterating generally understood weight training principles.

There is no original research or information in this book. Negatives: Bigger Leaner Strong is completely derivative in its information. Bigger Leaner Stronger covers nutrition, basic exercises, and supplements.
