“The results were awesome and I’m more confident now!”
How many months’ progress do your pictures represent? What were your stats for each picture?
These pictures represent 1 year of progress.
April 2016, I was 170 lbs and 19% body fat.
August 2016, I was 150 lbs and 10% body fat.
April 2017, I was 160 lbs and 10% body fat.
What has happened so far on the program?
All of my lifts increased significantly.
Bench press: 110 lbs to 198 lbs
Deadlift: 132 lbs to 340 lbs
Overhead press: 88 lbs to 132 lbs
Squat: 110 lbs to 265 lbs
I also did a reverse diet after my 2nd cut but didn’t after my first cut because I’d never heard of it before.
What workout split from the book did you use?
The 5-day split and 1 extra day to train my weak points.
What, if anything, almost kept you from buying the book or starting the program?
I had been lifting for 8 months prior to my first picture–as you can see I wasn’t getting any results. My personal trainer never taught me about counting calories and macro nutrition breakdown. Basically, he just asked me to eat very clean, as in: boiled chicken, broccoli, and baked sweet potatoes.
After I came across your MFL website, your articles seemed to be interesting. So I decided to buy Bigger Leaner Stronger and give it a try. It worked like a charm!
The most important thing is that I can eat what I like–no more plain, boring food!
What do you like most about the program?
The program is easy to follow and straightforward. The results were awesome! I am looking forward to April 2018 to see how far I can go!
How does this program compare with others you’ve tried?
I like how the diet works, you can eat what you like as long as you know how to count your calories and balance your macronutrients. However, try to have 80% to 90% of your calories come from healthier options.
How has what you’ve achieved with your body changed other areas of your life?
I am a more confident person now and it has been a wake-up call to me. If you want to achieve something, you have to work for it and it takes time to grind. There are no shortcuts.
Who would you recommend this program to and why?
Everyone; this $10 book has everything you need to know about how to build a good physique–plus, it has a 1-year workout program too.
Is there anything else you’d like to add?
Nailing down your diet is the first thing you need to do. Then, subscribe to MFL–you won’t regret it, haha!
Did you use any Legion supplements?
Pulse. It helped me set new PRs on my big compound lifts.

Clinically Effective Doses
Great ingredients aren’t enough to make a great product—you also need correct doses.
That’s why we use the exact doses of every ingredient that have safely produced the desired benefits in peer-reviewed studies.
Made in USA
Where your supplements are made matters, because rules and regulations regarding quality and purity differ from country to country.
And if you want to ensure the supplements you’re swallowing every day are safe and effective, you want products produced in the USA.
That’s why all of our supplements are made in America in NSF-certified and FDA-inspected facilities that operate in accordance with the Current Good Manufacturing Practice (cGMP) regulations.
We pay a premium to work with the best manufacturers in the country, but it’s the only way we can also produce the best all-natural sports supplements.
Lab Tested
Did you know that studies have shown that many supplements contain dangerously high levels of toxins like lead, arsenic, and cadmium?
Not ours.
Every ingredient of every supplement we produce is tested for heavy metals, microbes, allergens, and other contaminants to ensure they meet the strict purity standards set by the FDA.
Naturally Sweetened & Flavored
While artificial sweeteners may not be as dangerous as some people claim, studies suggest that regular consumption of these chemicals may indeed be harmful to our health and that more research is needed.
That’s why all of our supplements are naturally sweetened and flavored and contain no artificial food dyes, fillers, or other unnecessary junk.
Science-Backed Ingredients & Doses
Unlike some supplement companies, we don’t sell dubious white labeled or off-the-shelf formulations.
Instead, our custom and unique formulations are the result of extensive reviews of the scientific literature to discover the most effective ingredients for each.
