As for Lyle, I think he's had some net positives too. But I find his meanderings to be insufferable; I just can't listen to 40 minutes of him attacking someone/thing, to listen for that nugget of insight (and I know its there...I just can't bring myself emotionally to listen to a rant. And yes, I realize the irony that my posts on getbig are long and come across as rants).

Lyle used to have a very nice forum but then social media took over. His Facebook group is downright oppressive and it's only for true nerds.

You're so right about the 'lost in the weeds,' most of this stuff will have no effect in the big picture. As one truly obnoxious guru said, "there's no magical lifting program or diet or drug protocol that a coach can give you." He was talking about aspiring bodybuilders, but it can apply to advanced too as some switch coaches frequently looking for the formula for success. I think a coach can be very valuable, even if just for psychological reasons.

When in reality, he's a dimwitted fat fuck who faked his PHD and convinced everyone he was intelligent.

This fucker says his IQ is so high he doesn't even know how high as they can only go to 160 and then it's unreliable. Saying something like this is ridiculous, even if true, which it isn't.

I couldn't find the original article of this, would like to read what it says.

I am not at all surprised. Hopefully they take down a few refs too.

Anyone who broke the law should be held accountable.
