Does anyone else think John Basedow's pecs look like implants? Everytime I see his commercial on cable, his chest just doesn't look right.

who cares

the general public would like to look like him more than like a thick bodybuilder.

The general public looks like shit.

right they do. but there's nothing wrong with wanting to look like john basedow and nothing wrong with the fact that he makes good money selling his videos. are you saying that unless it's hardcore it's no good?

Not at all. Just a joke, but true. Most people who don't lift are weak disasters. I would take Basedow's paycheck, just not his boyfriend.

if you can make videos that sell and make money that's good for you too. everyone knows the chefs on tv aren't the best in the world too.

Basedow confirms that virtually anyone can generate revenue. I wonder how sales actually are, though.

you say that like basedow is so bad. he's in great shape, he probably has a good program for the average person who wants to lose weight and build a little muscle.

no clue as to his income vs. the monster amount he must spend on marketing.

i can say that he is going mass market instead of isolating a smaller target group. Going to cost a lot more to run commercials on MSNBC, FOX, and CBS in the same day, than to just aim for a certain demo. They must figure that fat people watch all of these channels.

My style is niche- find one group and use more resources on less people, with a higher rate of return than shotgun advertising, where you pitch flyers into a crowd and hope to get lucky.

Basedow is probably doing pretty well, though. Low overhead operation.
