Hey Lee, Here’s my story I started working out 3 years ago I an 5’6″ and i was obese at 260 pounds i started working out hitting the weights and doing cardio and in 8 months i lost a hundred pound with my own diet and excercise routine then a year ago i tried a popular infomercial program and got down to 140 with very low body fat but do to the the massive weight loss i just didnt feel comfortable with the saggy skin so over the last 9 months ive been using you tips and trying to bulk ive put on about 10 pounds of muscle but i would like to take my training to the next leve and i believe that your program could help. your tips have already helped me raise my 1 rep max bench fron 245 to 300. right now im unemployed so buying a new program is out of the question . So even though ive accomplished alot in terms of my health and fitness i would love to gain more strength and gain more mass to fill out some more and help me feel more confident about my appearance I the type of person who is going to follow the program to a to the best of my ability i work home but i have a bench, power rack, cable pull down, dumbells and barbells so there are some movements i would have to improvise.
Thanks for all your advice

Hi, Lee and all people resding this!

Thank you all for your emails. I hope, that you agree with me in certain things. It is important for all human beings to enjoy life, to use their possibilities to learn and set a nice example for others to benefit of.

During the years (73), I have learned, that we have to pay attention to our neighbours and their best interests. If we manage to do that, our own happiness will grow and we can lead a more manageful life, than if we only look for our own good.

I want to do my best to develop myself both bodily and mentally, to set the best example possible to me, for old-aged and also younger people to see, that it can and will be done, if we only believe, that using certain methods, and being a faithful trainer, we can do a lot to change ourselves for better, strong and good loooking individuals.

I have used a lot of my time to study the various training methods and courses through the Internet during the last few years. I have a collection of about 40 files of printed material from about 17 Internet coaches, approximately more than 2000 pages of good advice, how to train. Many, many ebooks! Perhaps too many, but very interesting literal materia.

Sure, I have learned, that there are many different opinions, how to develop your body to its ultimate condition.

One thing, I have noticed by now, is that what ever you do, be wholehearted and keep going with patience! That, and only that will give you the results you are looking after!

Thank you, Lee, that you have shown the world a way to make the best of our lives. You have also been very unselfish to give out so much free information, both written and through videos, and all with a personal touch and good example!

Your friend in Spain, Aimo

Hi Lee

I am 56 years of age and have been training for 3 years now. For the last 12 months I have finally got the focus right good training programmes with the correct 6 meal daily food plans. My progress has been steady – following beginner – intermediate work out routines. I have watched your videos Lee and have learnt loads about correct form and technique you are an excellent teacher. My next target is to go to the advance training and build mass and strength and I know you are up their with the best to follow. I totally trust and know what you teach is spot on to get me to my goals. I hope I am one of the lucky winners.

One Thursday, I went to workout at the local gym. As I get ready to lift, I see a couple of friends from my high school a year younger than me working out. As I do my set of barbell rows, they approach me as I finish my set. “Hey Nathan, let’s go bench!” they tell me. “2 more sets and I’ll go over there.” As I finish my lift I approach the bench and my friends are already setting up the plates. They seem impressed by my rows and compliment me on how strong I am. They even poke my chest to see how tight it is. As we put a plate and 15lbs on each side, they tell me to go first. As I finish my way through my 6th rep huffing and puffing, one of them sits on the bench and performs 7 flawless reps! I was devastated. I could not grasp the idea that I come to the gym four days a week with perfect consistency for almost two years now and this kid still out lifts me. At that point I realized that looks are not all. I’ve had great nutrition since I started lifting and that’s why I’ve put on some muscle, but that does not necessarily mean I’ve gained strength. Using the Mass and Power Building Training System I will be able to show those kids who they are messing with, and that my muscle mass is actually more than pure show.

hi lee its james here ive always wanted to be in netter shape and stronger but always seem to get in a rut not being able to lift more or lack of results . ive been do lots of research and hope to help others to there goals and to inspire them so i want to use this program to help me and others like me to reach there fitness goals and this new program is the key

Hi lee, im 20 years old and my goal in life is body building, and im one to love a challenge. i know this program would help me in my strength gains an challenge me. I also want this program to help me get in great shape. I promised my best friend that when he comes back to the US from afghanistan that he would be surprised. I was in boot camp with him so i have the will power to handle anything you can throw at me lee. Body building is my way of life, i love it, and im always driven to learn more. Your program will help increase my knowledge of power lifting and keep my routines freash. So lee I have the will to succeed, just help me see the way.

What’s up Lee,
I want to get big but unfortunately my genetics kind of hold me down a bit. I’m a pure ectomorph, but I don’t care because I’ve made tremendous progress by following your tips that you give us. My Bwt is 118lbs. I’m currently 16yrs old. I’ve been what people call “dieting” since Nov. 4, 2009. On the other hand I’ve been lifting weights since I was about 14, but back then I didn’t really focus on hitting all bodyparts and also my nutrition SUCKED back then, but now I just keep it plain and simple, but I keep my Carbs really high along with Lots of Protein and Healthy Fats. I plan to compete as soon as I hear about a local show, but where I live at there hasn’t been any since a long time ago.
Building a a big, strong, muscular body is INDEED very important to me because of many reasons.
Reason # 1. Who doesn’t want to be BIG & STRONG!
Reason # 2. I want to beat my genetics.
Reason # 3. It helps ALOT! If someone tries to hurt you physically you can defend yourself because you ARE STRONG!
Reason # 4. If I follow this program I may get even more drastic results. Why? Well because I already made some good gains by following your tips so I would guess by following a program I would get WAY better results.
Well thanks Lee for uploading al of your videos on youtube and sharing with us magnificent tips about EVERYTHING! Thanks gain man!

wow Lee. just got this email a while ago and so many entries.
well, i’ll tell you why i need this program.

i am currently 165lb, 6′ tall. i’d like to get back into competitive martial arts (as a blackbelt in kenpo). when i was doing amateur kickboxing i was 195lb and solid. over the years due to lack of time, money, and training, i got a bit soft. lately, i was able to get rid of the excess bodyfat, but still miss that larger, useable physique i once had. i not only want to simply get stronger for the gym, i need to have the useable mass to hit harder and faster, get those takedowns and control guys that have a larger physique. i’d probably have to fight at 170 and i’m small mass-wise compared to most of the guys i know competing. i feel that competitive burn coming back and sadly i don’t have the finances at this time for a full personal training routine at the gym. this sounds like something i could totally make use of, it’s just that i don’t have the cash to get to 185lb, strong, solid and functionally.

cheers man, and thanks for the emails!

hey lee,
after watching your videos on u tube and reading your insights, you have unlocked a passion of wanting to be fit, i am much older than probably most of your followers, but i have a desire to be around for my youngest son and my grandkids, just a little about me i am 46 yo. and weight 311 i started working out when i was 16 got stupid had a couple of kids and stopped working out . recently i was told that i have diabetes a needed to take meds to control it so i decided that its back to the gym i go! so i’ve started and got the blood pressure down and the blood sugar back down no more meds etc.

so here i am at the gym and feeling no progress except the control of lifes major fluids. but i’m looking around thinking look at these older guys same age group and they are just going thru for what to say they are in shape i don’t wanna look like i’m just there. i wanna look like i did when i was in my 20’s and realistically i won’t but why not try and make it happen getting rid of the man boobs and trying to get rid of the spared tire that turned sideways when i swallowed it and now i need to get rid of it . so i ask you is there hope for a 46 yo man to get back into shape to feel better and look better for myself and my family.

I want to be big and huge. Power is a must. This is not drag racing where you have a beat up car with a monster engine. You want the look as well as the power. I’m 6’2″. At 21 I was 153lbs. Now at 29 I’m 240lbs. More muscle as well as power, but it’s never enough. I want to be 280lbs. 300 if it looks good. If you take this sport seriously, it’s nearly impossible to look at yourself in the mirror and say, ” Dang I look good”. It’s not lifting weights, it’s the pursuit of perfection. Perfection only exists in one’s mind. It’s the bigger man inside that makes you lift more than what you can. Sometimes you want to tell him to shut the f??k up, but the respect for him is to great. Reality will never let you know that this pursuit is never ending. People see you and say ” Your a monster”, but you see a boy. Power will look at you and laugh because Mass is telling you different. Mass is a bodybuilder’s friend, but Power wont even look at you until you ask him for forgiveness. Ask me if Power goes with Mass and I will tell you how long did it take you to figure that out. Power looks like nothing without Mass and vice versa. I will never stop and anyone that can help is my friend. Anyone that is in my way can only be me. Aspire to be better than yourself.

Ever since I saw Pumping Iron when I was 15 and a half years old I knew I wanted to be a bodybuilder. But not only did I want to look powerful, I wanted to be powerful. Now I am 19 and I have made excellent progress thus far. I went from 5’8″ and skinny fat to 5’9″ 190 pounds and at an 8% body fat. I achieved this progress from sheer determination and hard work and am still implementing these principles to this day. The problem is that no matter what program I do or how perfect I make my nutrition I cannot gain any more mass or strength. My diet at the moment consists of 270 grams of protein 250 grams of carbs and 120 grams of fat. All of this adds up to 3160 calories and is all from extremely clean sources. Lee, working out is my life and I know that I am perfect for this program. All of your tips so far have been extremely beneficial and I know that this program will be the solution to my problem. Thank you for holding this contest and for your consideration.

Sincerely,
Rob

Hey Lee! Just wanted to thank you for sharing your wealth of knowledge so selflessly with us. There are a lot of compelling reasons that the people above give for needing your program. I used the blast your bench program and added 30 lbs to my bench and really look forward to getting new training tips every week from your website. Information and inspiration all in one shot! I would love to use your new mass and strength program to see if I can finally join the bench 200lb and squat 400 club – ego trip I know but it’s on my bucket list. As a 135 lb chick who’s made it to the 180 bench and 280 squat I’d love to scare the pants off of my gym buddies and convince them to try your program!

Hello lee and mike,
I need this program because I’ve been dedicated to improving my physique. Strength, looks for years now, but don’t get me wrong I’ve lost alot of weight and gained muscle but I’m still t amatute level, and Im still not happy with my physique, I always put in 110% into my workouts with your tips I eat healthy enough and still not much is happening, that’s why I need this program to kick start my workouts again, so I can get the results I want and deserve.
Cheers guys,
yours sincerely kane!

Your body is your first impression you’ll ever leave on anybody. When you are working constantly towards reaching an amazingly fit, and strong body, other bad habits like lack of diet, over drinking, smoking, and lack of sleep disappear quickly. Proven mass and power building training system will give me the opportunity to challenge myself in every aspect of my life. I want to show others, that it is possible to build a big physique. This is a chance for me to become the best that I can be, an opportunity not worth missing.

The reason I need the, Mass & Power Building Workout Training System, is that I have been routinely going to the gym and pushing myself hard everytime I go. I eat right and folow your every email and try to use every valuable piece of advice I can find. Im becoming quite frustrated though, I have made a few gains and I am slightly bigger and stronger than most my friends, but only slightly, and most of them don’t even go to the gym. My friends are aware of how often I workout and how committed I am as they have sat infront of me eating BigMacs whilst I eat a bit of meat and some brown rice. I don’t smoke and rarely drink alcohol. The reason I am getting really frustrated is that I am more committed to my goals than anybody I know, yet I get compared to friends/people I know, who don’t eat right and just sit doing bicep curls in the gym and are noticabley bigger and more muscular than me and frequently get asked why I’m not larger than I am. I have never given up on my goals even when I think that I have no hope, I just continue to give my all to my dream of becoming large and strong. This is why I not only need this programme, but why I deserve to have it.

To be muscular and strong is a primal urge of most men. We have the choice to nurture this goal and to achieve our maximum physique or to sit on the sidelines and just lament the physique of neglect and no self respect. I have come to appreciate this urge for a great physique later in life than most men, but the fire is real and drives me to work daily to go as far as I possibly can in both muscular size and strength It took time for me to realize many men have the same elemental drives as I do, that the community of bodybuilders is supportive, and that successful bodybuilders, like Lee and his associates, want to help us all to achieve the best bodies we can. Serious bodybuilders, like me and many others, need coaching, sound advice, and healthful approaches to develop bodies better than when we started training. Lee and his associates offer all these services. I know the new program will be a blockbuster!

I equate size with strength. I know it’s not always true but with me it is. I’m not naturally strong so increases come as my measurements increase. I have really wimpy legs even with hard effort squats, leg curls and what I feel is good nutrition and rest. I want to set a new world’s record in the shot-put for my senior age group. My body doesn’t move quickly like a young person’s so I need double their strength to achieve the same distance. Besides that I want blow everyone’s mind as a model of what the ‘elderly’ can achieve with reasonable health, effort and a great program. I’m five years into my current self administered program with flexible experimentation mainly to increase my strength. Now finally all the muscles groups are responding with a good pump and visible muscularity.

But with an objective, seasoned new program I could achieve my goals quicker. It takes an outside pair of eyes to correct and guide your efforts sometimes regardless of your determination and grit.

Hey Lee! I am a big fan of your vids and the reason I should get this program, is because I’m a hardgainer still struggling in the gym trying to put some size on. I’ve made very minimal plateaus and would like to take it up to the next level! I want to feel extremely confident and not being overlooked as a small guy. I’m 5’1 132 lbs. I am learning everything I can about fitness and different exercises to compensate along with my training as well as learning new exercises. I can have a whole new beginning and pack on muscle mass faster than the average guy. You have actually motivated me to be more confident and to never give up. I will never give up! Everyone thinks I’m not able to acheive this, but I know that I can without question!!! I also need this so that I don’t get picked on or bullies and to be honest… I want to impress the ladies! Destiny for me is near… and with this program it’ll be endless possibility.

I’m 53 years old, and have been working out most of my adult life. Fitness is the true love of my life (don’t tell my wife I said that). I had shoulder surgery about 6 years ago, and couldn’t work out for 6+months. I trimmed down quite a bit, and have never been able to put the size back on. I eat very well and workout 4-6 days a week, depending on the type of training I’m doing. Most people think I’m in great shape; I don’t need to be as big as I was 20 or 30 years ago, but I would like to add some size. I’ve tried a lot of different workouts, I’m hoping yours will truly work. The only area that I “feel small” is my chest. Thanks for reading this,

Lee, I am going to be a junior in high school next year, and need your help. I am about 5’5″ 120, and I wrestle and pole vault for my school. The reason I need your book is to keep my Varsity spot on the wrestling team. There is a lot of people surrounding my current weight that i may have to wrestle off for the spot. I may be forced to bulk up huge to wrestle a higher weight. I really need to be able to get my posterior chain and legs extremely powerful. I would not mind improving my bench as well(160 with slight help). It would be a lie to say i dont want this to look great, but I need it for sports. Regardless of whether I get a Varsity spot or JV, im sick of getting stuck on my back during my match. Im sick of watching the other guy get his hand raised victoriously. I have seen your before and after picture, and right now I am pretty strong, so I think with this gift from you, I could improve my wrestling greatly. I hope you will choose me, but if not, Do NOT choose someone whose ONLY reason for this is appearance.

I want a mass building and strength program that works because all of the other ones that said they guarantee result gave me false hope. Not only that put I believe that I actually have one that works I can spread it to others like myself that haven’t found the answer to getting that mass. See I am 30 years old and went to my last football combine and didn’t make it because I got a grade of 5 on my size out of 10. So my size has crushed my goal and dream to play professional football. So in the end maybe I can finally get the size I have been kooking for for all these years

disregard this message

One reason that I would want to build a big,strong and muscular body is for my family.Being the sole breadwinner,I realised that I must get stronger,physically fit and healthy to support my family.The program will absolutely improve my life,changing me from being a weak person into a stronger person.I must become a role model for my children too.
With a better body,it would not just help myself tremendously but also helping others too in the gym,letting them know what working out is all about with my knowledge.

Thanks Lee.

The reason I want to get bigger, stronger, and more muscular is because I have been lifting weights for 2 years now and I work really hard at it and I just havent been getting much success and my chest isnt big at all and I cant get my abs at all. Everyone always tells me ( how come you are really strong and work out a lot but dont have a nice body or a chest or anything and I tell them i dont know) and I eat a lot of healthy foods and protein and everything I need to do to get bigger and stronger ill do. I’m going in to my senior year and I hurt my colar bone 4 months back and its fully healed and I just cant get my bench and all my upper body strength back at all. I went from benching 255×4 to 155×6 and I been working real hard for 2 months now and my bench hasnt gone up at all and my body fat hasnt gone done either.

I MUST be strong. Honestly, I am not (too) concerned about how I look, but I MUST be strong. My wife and I are both in our mid-seventies and she has been bedridden for the last six years. I am her primary care giver. I MUST be strong. My chief recreation is working out in my home gym. I measure my success by competing in the annual Nevada Senior Games. I compete in the “Power Lifting” and “Fitness” competitions. I point to that one extremely enjoyable and rewarding day every year.
