"Since I've been working out with James, my body has gone through a TOTAL transformation. I am stronger and more toned than I've ever been and since I am seeing such great results, it only motivates me to work out more. James has customized a program for my body with a different set of exercises every week, so I never get bored. I still have areas that need work, but thanks to James, I know I am well on my way to having the rock hard body I've always wanted."

"I've got to tell you, the workouts have really been useful for all these summer projects I've been working on. Friday, I helped my friend pour 18 yards of cement in his backyard and he didn't hire enough people so we were working our butts off! Even though I was a little sore in my rear delts, I didn't get overly exhausted while I was out there. Some of the other guys were huffing and puffing and they weren't even in the thick of the mud. So even though the workouts hurt and I cry and moan, I do appreciate the benefits!! Thanks."

"I have gone through all three of your shoulder workouts, and I have to say, 'WOW.' This program really works. Even after doing the first workout, I could instantly tell. My striations were popping, my nose was running (always a good thing on shoulder day), and I can start to see the cuts between my biceps and shoulders. I look a little bit wider, making my waist seem even smaller."

"Pretty much you are officially godlike to me. Every single exercise I do goes up by about 10-20 pounds each week. I am nearly benching 300 pounds. Whatever you say I will do."

"A quick note of thanks to you for your arm training from your book. I just finished one month of the routine that you outlined for biceps and triceps. The direct heavy work on my biceps and the work for the long head of the triceps really 'plumped' out my upper arm.
"I really enjoyed the comments from others who noticed. I am a 48 year old 'blinded veteran' who has been training for 25 years. Decent arms but we always want more, right? Thanks for all the useful info."

"The man is a hidden gem. So many You Tube vids show annoyingly cocky folks bragging about how much they can do. Well, this man not only has awesome ability and knowledge, but he shows himself to be nothing but humble, professional, reliable and really inspirational. Someone who can get you to the next level. "

"Sticking to your principles to the letter has helped me improve immensely. When I started lifting over two years ago I was 125 pounds and now I'm over 170.
"What I'm trying to say is that reading your books helped me understand what I needed to do to gain [muscle]. My dedication plus your expertise really worked out well for me."

"Your arm blast routine from Volume One that you pointed me to is phenomenal. Maybe it's just the pump, but I'm measuring 16 inches compared to 15 inches before - after just 2 trainings!"

"Early July I wrote for advice on your Shotgun Method. Now three months later, I must say that I am really amazed with what I achieved thanks to it. I gained about an average of 1.8 kilograms a month since then, and in August and September also lost some body fat while gaining muscle (woot!). I transitioned from basic lifts to Olympic ones. Overall it was a really great experience not only seeing the results but also the fun I had."
