Yes but he probably did not consume a diet made up of 99 % EAS products...

for a program that promises one thing (mainly, abs), it sure delivers better than a program that says it'll turn you into mentzer (hit).

 Bill Phillips is a marketing genuis with the B4L program.

 It's such a household name even Grandma BlockHead once asked me about it...I was like..."Whaaaaat? You know about that?"

 It's such a basic cookie cutter diet. 6 meals a day. 3 solid sensible meals, a decent program and 3 liquid shake meals. What the mags been preaching for YEARS.

 He knew how to market it to the baby boomers and mainstream America and cashed in HIGH ROLLIN' style!

it's desirable to have a swimmers build.  it's not desirable to look like coleman or gutler.

my friend just completyed it 3 months. wenmt from 122lbs with prob 18% bf to 155 with 10% max. all in 3 months ill get his pics on this. his story is also incredible reads like a movie script.

basically grew up in miost underprivilaged area in europe in the early 80'2
3x irish boxing champion he was renowned as a myth in ireland for his boxing prowess and natual talent
then his mother died very young
father was murdered
brother was murdered stabbed to death
he was in a psychiatric hospital
was a drug and alcohol addict
attackd by a much much bigger man with iron bars cos he beat him in a fight
this man came back when my friend was sleeping and attackd him with hammers. bit his ear off. he also broke many ribs and his neck
doctors thought hed nver walk again
6 weeks later he had neck brace off and was walkin...month sbefore the docs thot he would if at all.

this BFL has transdfoprmed him physically and mentally.he sent his tranformation away 3 weeks ago . one week ago he recieved a pack withj 100s of dollars of clothes gear supps and bopoks. the results will be announced in 2 months. the fact the sent it out looks good and seems to suggest he done well at least in ireland and the uk.

You know what Power Rod, I followed BFL back in 2000 and like you said, it is a very good & balanced approach to getting lean and in pretty good condition. Best thing about BFL is that it can be incorporated as a lifestyle! Your not going to get burned out and fatigued from it after 8 weeks, you can do it for years.
However, the reason alot of bros on this board are dissing it is because it is not in-line with their goals.... most bros on this board are early 20's - early 30's and are more interested in packing on mass and lifting HEAVY weight... nothing wrong with that , but BFL is NOT that kind of routine, it advocates 1st thing AM cardio, Very small portion-pro/carb each meal , 6 x day and 1 min b/t weight lifting sets. Lift 3 x week and cardio 3 x week and Cheat day on Sunday.
I think you would be well served to adopt it for a good 12 weeks Power Rod, you would look and FEEL your best after 2 months into it.

i've done it right after college.  i was around 215 of fat, and got down to a nice 195 after 12 weeks.
to be honest, i don't see why you couldn't get bigger and get leaner mass.  it would serve any goal fine.  the problem is most people here get too fat thinking they got huge, and live the proverbial "offseason" lifestyle forever.
i'd rather be 190 with abs than 250 with a gut and 20 inch biceps.

This is a good point however I would say that a lot of people also dis BFL because they feel a certain degree of "betrayal" (for lack of a better term) by Bill Phillips.  He went from a having a pretty cool magazine aimed at bodybuilders who didn't necessarily want to be a pro bodybuilder yet wanted more muscle, lower body fat, strength increase, and so on to catering to overweight housewives.  The magazine went from Dan Duchaine, Charles Poliquin, TC Luoma to basically reading Men's Health.   I never quite understood the move other than he was looking to sell the EAS/Muscle Media and wanted to make it appeal to the mainstream more.  Now the mag doesn't exist and EAS is owned by Pilsberry last I heard. 

Anyways BFL serves its purpose to the overweight housewife and corporate america, yet that is not the real bodybuilding market.

Some of the most deprived and underprivileged parts of Europe are/were in Northern Ireland ::) You have no idea how shitty these areas were and probably still are in comparison to the rest of the UK, or what kind of scumbags controlled these areas.  Perhaps you should stick to topics that involve inserting things into your anus...

You are honestly telling me that Northern Ireland is more 'deprived' than the Balkans? And don't you try and claim that the IRA/UDA etc are more dangerous than the serbian death squads. Lol, you've been drinking to much Guiness.

You might be able to fool the yanks with your romanticised version of 'the emerald isle', but not me.

BFL will work but obviously it's not for experienced bodybuilders. A lot of people seem to have a fear of change and resist the effort needed to get in shape and take charge of their lives, BFL is their support network. My wife goes on the BFL site which is nothing but a stroke fest of "You go girl" after some heifer loses 2 ounces in a month. I always laugh and think about the a-holes on here who would rip them into shreds if they posted their pics and routines.

Phillips wrote the Anabolic Reference Guide back in the late 80's and early 90's I still have a copy. Cycles seem pretty weak by todays standards but are probably a lot healthier/safer. Wish the prices he listed still were available, Sust for $10.00.

You ever been in the middle of West Belfast or the Bogside???  Things are a bit better now, but in the 70s and 80s they were shitty holes of places, didn't Goudy say the guy grew up in a deprived area in the 80s. He wasn't talking about the whole of Northern Ireland ::)

There is nothing romantic about it.  What is romantic about innocent civilians getting shot because of religious denomination or police officers getting shot or soldiers getting blown up trying to do their job.

And anyone who will kill you for no apparent reason is dangerous in my mind. Anyone who will carry a bomb into a butchers shop on a Saturday afternoon or walk into a crowded pub with a automatic weapon or open fire at funeral with a pistol is as dangerous as anyone ::)
