He took a leap of faith, and today Mountain Dog Diet sells products such as ebooks on training and diet, clothing and fitness equipment, training programs such as the $95, 12-week “Novice Workout Package” and Skype consultations for $200 an hour.

Sounds like a successful guy.  I think if he is intelligent and positions himself well in the industry, he can make a lot of money for a long time.  However, I would not pay $200 for an hour-long Skype consultation.  Not with him, not even with Jesus or Muhammad.

John is a really down to earth nice guy in person IRL.  You'd never know from talking to him that he was on a dead-serious mission to kill himself competing for and as a professional bodybuilding "career."  Very sad and will be tragic.

Do you mean he was willing to take any doses required to take it the next level?

“I’m conservative by nature,” says Meadows, 43.

Pfff, $200 an hr?

His info is not that cutting edge. Been doing many of the stuff that is "his claim to fame" but never coined them with catchy terms as he did.

Was never impressed with him or his info. Just an ugly dude with a physique that sucks and many can relate to him so they like him I guess...

A bunch of bitches hating on a decent guy who is doing well for himself, providing for his family, and who helps a lot of people.

PS: I do see the irony in the "conservative by nature" comment.   ;D

Maybe for a four-part skype convo with Joon, Shizzo, Wiggs and Goodrum?

Imagine the revelations about bitcoins, beepollen, hebrews being black and whatnot!

I would pay 200 dollars just to clean Goodrum's Jaguar
