I'm pretty new to Lyle's work (i.e. maybe 6 weeks).. this is actually the first I've heard of monkeyisland. I just registered. I was talking specifically about bodyrecomposition.com before.. apparently the new forum. I've seen posts about the split before so I'm familiar with what you're talking about. I just didn't realize until now that the 'old' forum still existed.

I don't care a whole lot if people are assholes; I care if the ideas, information, and advice are good. 2p2 hf goes something like this: read the faq, do SS, eat 10,000 calories a day, and whatever you do, do. not. ever. do. cardio.

There is very little creative thinking to adapt to any set of circumstances or any other set of goals besides GFH. And some of them (not all of them) come off as spoiled arrogant pricks as well. Which, of course, wouldn't be an issue to me if the content was good, but in my experience it usually just turns out to be the worst of both worlds.

Then again, I wouldn't seek out poker advice on a fitness/bodybuilding board either, so perhaps I'm holding them to too high of a standard.
