About this ebook

Mathew James Barnett explained that his book is a light year away from when he first started using weights to increase his size and strength. He said there is twenty years of working out between his first workout and this book. He has a stack of books and magazines that all promised they had something to offer. He recalls following all the systems with none really standing out from the rest.

Trial and error in the gym, lead him to the methods in his book. He stated that he knew he was onto something when he heard people asking those people around him, if he was using steroids. Eventually people also began to ask him directly.

He stated that there were people in the gyms he used, who were using steroids. To his surprise, Mat recalled that people were starting to copy his methods, including the steroid users. He explained that people in the gym saw his results and saw that he did some things differently to what everyone was doing. Also, that it was easy for them to copy him.

Mat explained the name of the book is from true events, but he agreed its an odd name for a bodybuilding book. Mat stated that when people know his story, theyll agree theres only one name for his book. Mat said there isnt a person in the gym, anywhere in the world, that wouldnt benefit from following his humble little book.

I appreciate the detail and the differentiation between muscle fiber types as well as the routine info. I've been training consistently for 14 years and I'm going to try the 2 day split
