Resumen del Editor

You’ve been lifting for a few years. When you take your shirt off, do you look like a professional athlete? Do you even look like you work out?

Many so-called fitness experts defend weights and cardio like they are infallible. But where are the results? Why does almost nobody look even marginally athletic?

Fitness may be the most failed human endeavor, and you are about to hear how exercise science has missed some obvious principles that, when enacted, will turn you into the superhuman that you've always wanted to be.

In Weight Lifting Is a Waste of Time, Dr. John Jaquish and Henry Alkire explore the science that supports this argument and present a superior strength-training approach that has been known to put 20 pounds of muscle on drug-free, experienced lifters (i.e., not beginners) in six months.

One of the best books on the topic

As far as the title is concerned, I haven't read a ton of books on the topic but very few books that I re-read (or re-listen in this case) over and over. Just to make sure I absorb the information well.

This is one of those books.

Lets see if it works.

Profound

This was the first health, fitness and nutrition book I was able to finish in the last decade! It's maybe the 20th I've started. I usually get hung up on un-verifiable assertions that seem to be more interested in evangel-lastic tellings of their systems to get me to buy something. I already bought the X3 bar and was using it for 10 weeks at the time of reading this book, but I loved the verifiable research mixed in with sprinkles of relatable narrative!

Good stuff.

I learned a lot. Worth the time. Give it a try. Four more words required.

Yes it's a sales pitch.

You should be sold on a better way to load muscles that requires an X3 bar or high quality, well made replica. X3 bar doesn't look like much. And even the arguments in the book don't sound like much. Yet when you put it all together you end up NOT wasting your time and money on gyms, equipment, coaches, and diets. You can actually look good (have the body you want) and not spend countless hours slaving away to get it. Everyone who is into fitness as a business or lifestyle will not like it. No gym. No weights. No cardio. Just real world results.

Lifts should be a LOT HEAVIER where you are strongest.
Animal protein should be the focus of your diet.
Consistency + Heavy = > you healthy

Don't waste your life. Don't hurt yourself.

10% ad, 90% data

yes, it has afs for the X3 bar, which I already own, but the science and data backing it up is very informative and interesting. half the book is actually about fasting and the carnivore diet. good listen.

Incredibly thorough research and imspiring!

Well researched and thorough. Inspiring and well presented. I am certain that the unflattering reviews are egos not able to admit they have been wrongly following ineffective and outdated workout advise. Learn and adapt to new fitness technology, just as we do in all other disciplines. Thank you For this revolutionary work.

Helpful, but John should have read it.

I had already purchased the X3 Bar when I listened to the book. I found the book helpful overall. It explained some things I didn't understand and reinforced some that I did.

A few things were awkward: It definitely sounded like an infomercial. I didn't care that it wanted me to buy something, but I struggled a bit because the narrator has an infomercial voice/tone/cadence. At one point I looked him up because it sounded like it may have been read by AI. Also, most of the book was written (or read) in third person referencing John and Henry, who were the authors of the book. That seemed very strange to me and gave it even more of an infomercial feel.
