[quote] Many readers have asked if that’s really my arm on the cover. My answer is, “That was my arm - it’s actually bigger now!” I’ve continued to practice what I preach and use the principles and exercises I describe in the book - and the results have continued to pay off. I don’t take steroids, and certainly am not of the lucky ones gifted with a quick recovery ability and naturally huge muscles. What you see on the cover is simply the correct physiological principles in action - and a person that was smart enough to use them.
It’s also true that I spend no more than a total of 1 to 2 minutes A MONTH working my biceps, and a total of 1 to 2 minutes A MONTH working my triceps. Last Tuesday I worked my arms and was in the gym no more than a total of 20 minutes from the time I stepped foot in the gym to the time I walked out the door. I had a productive workout, going up on both the weight and number of reps - a productive workout that will most surely trigger my muscles growth mechanism, making my arms grow even bigger. In contrast, I know many people who have been regularly spending twice that amount of time on their arms for literally years - and have little to show for it.
While this may all seem unbelievable, it’s all based on sound physiological principles and it works. And so, I encourage anyone who has ever struggled to get their arms to grow bigger to give the book a try. Those who are willing to actually do the routine as prescribed, will see that making muscles grow bigger can be a quite predictable process.
Gotta love those Amazon reviews. If only I had know the importance of Exercise Tolerance; I wouldn’t have wasted so many years in the gym.

Trainer X is a wise guy at times, but the attitude he takes on is only there to get you reading. When you finish, you will understand that the wisdom in this book can increase your muscle mass, save you time, and overall change your life.
The book concentrates on the concept of exercise tolerance. This is a genetic component that we all have to consider when trying to get big muscles, but most do not. The problem most people have is they don’t give their muscles enough time to fully rebuild despite brutally working out. As Trainer X points out, this is usually because people are doing what the biggest guy in the gym is doing.
So you have to give muscles time to rebuild, but how much time? This book helps answer that question- it gives you a plan and a routine that will help you discover your exercise tolerance. While written for the “average guy”, the principles will work for anyone, with any range of exercise tolerance.
Since personally using the techiniques and exercises in the book, I now work my arms just once a week for just a few minutes, and they have already gotten at least an inch bigger. Want big arms? Follow the book and they’ll Grow!

REVIEW ANALYSIS: This review has hit the nail on the head. While there are several major reasons why people can’t get their arms to increase in size, perhaps the biggest mistake made is failing to stay within one’s exercise tolerance. To help solve that problem, the book’s plan and set of exercises will help the reader systematically figure out their exercise tolerance, which in turn allows the arms to finally grow bigger.
I take my hat off to this reviewer, as he had the cojones to put aside all the bodybuilding misinformation out there. and actually try FEWER exercises and MORE rest. Those who actually follow the plan and routine as outlined will also experience similar results. [/quote]

It would be great to have “Trainer X” in this forum and see him battling Professor X in all threads related to arm size growing.
I bet Professor X didn’t know about this exercice tolerance thingy!

Is it possible that Trainer X is Professor X’s white skinny guy alter ego? He gives out advice on how to get huge here on T-Nation, but that doesn’t pay anything so he writes a book so he can pay the bills.
Make up an exercise term called “exercise tolerance” and write a book about it
Come up with a pseudonym and google a skinny white guy’s arm
