I just scanned it & most of it seems consistent with much of what my friends here have taught me. Like I said, I did not get into reading & trying to digest it in detail yet. It does seem like a good everything-in-one-place summary of important information if accurate. I just wanted my trusted gurus to check it out before I start using it as a reference. What say you guys?

After reading it one thing I've noticed, especially on nutrition. It is no different than anything I or many others have suggested. They state that cals in cals out will determine if you gain or loose, there is no arguing that but they also state macro's will determine if that weight gain or loss will be fat or muscle. If you notice they also mention the 40/40/20 breakdown. Again everyone has their views but if you keep searching on line you will start to see a trend, there will be many that suggest vegan diets on one end to eat anything you want, just watch the cals on the other but the mainstream will be as in the article you posted. Different things will work for different people but watching cals and MACRO's will work for everyone.
As for the weight training, again nothing different than recommendations by me as well as others back in the new years thread. It is a very typical workout, using large muscle groups without a lot of isolation lifts. These programs work very well for gaining overall strength and size. If you go back to the new years thread, look at the two basic programs I listed, it is almost identical.
Don't keep looking for a magic fix, follow these guidelines and you WILL reach your goals, it's not easy and takes time and dedication but it WILL WORK!!!
