Unless the complaint is that he isn’t being Billy Mays and shouting about the supplement in every video, or that he has plainly said many times that hard work and careful nutrition are all he really needs to be big and that isn’t sufficiently pumping the product? Yet I suspect that if he were loudly attributing everything to the supplement, the same people criticizing his marketing for supposedly being poor would be criticizing him for that possible alternate approach as well.
Also another factor to consider is whether he is being effective in promoting himself as a personality. It seems to me he’s being extremely effective in this regard.
I always liked his physique but really knew nothing about him. Due to the blog I now consider him an engaging, interesting, entertaining, and somewhat charismatic individual. Since his original goal in this was to get ready for an “action hero” movie role – I assume it is a small-scale movie – and he has had acting ambitions for a while, getting himself better known as a personality can only be a good thing. Quite possibly his movie will sell considerably more DVD’s thanks to this blogging effort. I might even buy one myself, when otherwise the chance of that would have been zero.[/quote]
Agree completely. Compared to guys like Jay Cutler (boring as hell) or even Vic Martinez (looks high most of the time but at least watchable and not monotone), he has one of the best personalities in bodybuilding at this point.

I won Mr. Maryland without taking any sort of supplement or drug. Some supplements can help your workouts, but Iâ??m living proof you can get plenty big without taking a supplement. If a supplement is safe and works for you, go for it â?? but supplements are not a requirement.
Yeah, Levrone is really pimping this product, all right.[/quote]
I’m with you. Don’t think he’s up to anything “diabolical”

I was cracking up looking at the skinny dude flex… Why the F would Levrone listen to that guy. He looks like a very skinny guy who has about six weeks training experience. lol. And if was some big time trainer who happened to be small… he wouldn’t stand there and flex like a spaz. Maybe Levrone didn’t know what he was getting himself into until he got there… I hope.
