Default My New Website - MR

Hey everybody,

I just wanted to let you know that my new website is finally up and running. What's cool about the site is that you can check out some pdfs of the interior of Muscle Revolution. So if you haven't picked up a copy, check out the Muscle Revolution info that's on the site. From there, you can purchase it with my shopping cart.

really nice looking site, just like your book I can see you put a lot lof thought into design. it'll be great to have a one stop place to refer people to when they ask about my workouts (I love t-mag but it scares some away).

Hey Chad,

You know that as a competitive bodybuilder I really appreciate that pose on your site. Awesome shouders, arms, back...you look great!

Not that I would insult you be calling you a bodybuilder of course

I don't own a copy, but I'd sign up to the forum just to be there.

Cynic brings up a point. Our resident buisness guru Deserve has mentioned it pretty much in depth but having a good electronic fitness site could easily be a really nice investment if the author really cared to make it so. You can argue the value of the single page ad pages with thousands of testimonials...IMO it might be true to sell an individual product, not a service. It's not going to get people to "come back". If anything they get hyped up on what they're buying (and do buy it) only do realize they were a dumb ass and bought into the hype...never to buy from that author again.

Chad (we're buddies like that, he calls me "T" and we go shoot pool and watch football and stuff...it's my fantasy...shut up) has done something that I don't think any other author has really done as far as development and interaction and putting up products. That being "listen to the consumer". The book is a solid, complete package. It doesn't have a bunch of filler garbage. It does what it sets out to do and that's good. It's a satisfying purchase.

The only obvious things that need to addressed (and the websight would be the PERFECT) place to do it would be to actually have the lifts described. If there were "pay to play" content downloadable logs (maybe with built in calculators for the math impaired, 80% of 1RM), interactive workout logs w\ occasional coaching, I could see Chad making a video and doing well. Sidetracked....

Anyway, he seems to be doing a really fantastic job of keeping in mind that the consumer is a person vs a wallet and wanting to appeal and serve the person vs simply getting money. While we all want a few bucks on our pocket, it's nice not to feel like the producer is god and "if you don't like the way I do it, then screw you, you already payed for it."

I agree with Gobbla. I've stuck with Chad's programs because I can understand them, what they do for me and they work for me. I've tried a few other programs but many of them make my head swim before I even go to the gym. No bull and helpful. Great combo!

Hey gobbla,

I really appreciate your post, and you can be certain that I've taken your words very seriously. I like what you said and I'll definitely keep that in mind as my website evolves.

Thanks again for yet another insightful and intelligent post!

I've been waiting and waiting for the new site Chad. Looks very, very good. I'm impressed. I certainly look forward to meeting you and picking your brain at JP's Summit. I have done a number of your routines and have been very happy.

Would this book be appropriate for a smallish female who wants to maintain and further increase definition, maybe get a little stronger without much size and just have fun in the gym?
