Ok, so I read Twight's piece first (mostly because it was published first) and then moved on to JF's piece, which I only glanced over. I think the reason I read the first one through and the second one...not so much is because, well the first one had a better opening. I mean as a writer you need to grab the reader's attention, but maybe I think it was better because it was new at the time, whereas the second piece is so similar to the first that it made it less interesting.

Anyhow, there are things that are very similar in both pieces, such as the tone of the article. I would expect it from Twight because Gym Jones seems to be able attitude. Whereas someone like JF you would see would want to inspire people, but make his writing geared to a broader market (even though this was posted at Elite FTS). The ideas were generally the same...you know what I'm done. At least he didn't use the quotes from the songs that Twight did....

I wouldn't necessarily call it plagiarism, but the idea of the piece was very similar. But then again 899/900 fat loss articles are the same rehashed bullshit as well...
