What does this product claim?

Quote:
It is an Ebook guide that covers all the common mistakes made when people are trying to lose fat. It tells you in detail not just what to do to lose fat, but what NOT to do.
Where can I get it and how much does it cost?

19.99

Review:

Layout\Format


E-Book 5K. For the most part the formatting on an e-book has to be pretty darn bad to actually give a “happy” or “sad” face for. Over all this one plays on both sides of the court. The entire experience put me in mind of sitting across from someone and having them spew everything that they could possibly think of about a subject. It’s not always precise or wonderfully put, but you get every single thing that they consider relevant to the topic.

It’s wordy at times. If you’ve read Leigh’s blog you know where I’m coming from with this one. It’s not end of the world, but damn. This said, as the book continues through the wording gets more and more precise so it “is” an issue in the beginning but pretty well works itself out by the end.
The other noteworthy thing that basically falls into the same vein is the large font. It’s easy to read, but you’re going to be scrolling…a lot. Again, not a critical thing and not nearly as annoying as it would be in print (you don’t get the “stretching the content” feel).

Overall the formatting is adequate. Not fantastic, not retched.

Does it do what it says\Review

Novice\Enthusiastic Amateur:


I combined the two classes because in all honesty it’s pretty much the same as far as diet is concerned. Unless you’re looking for something really specific purpose-wise, we’re all in pretty much the same boat.

As far as fat loss nutrition goes this is about as complete a product as I’ve seen. For all the wording in the beginning, once you get rolling damn near everything you see is going to make you better at losing weight.

You learn the basics of nutrition itself (this is what each macro does). You learn about measuring success. You learn about nutrient timing. You learn about training. You learn what to do when things don’t go like expected (eating out\lack of progress).

As far as doing what it promises, yes. I don’t see any reason why anyone that follows the advice here would fail in their fat loss goals.

Final Thoughts:


Leigh Peele’s Fat Loss Troubleshooter isn’t filled with super duper info that’s going to tell you all the secrets of the…whatever the hell secrets there are to tell. What it does give is the basics (and not so basics) of what you “need to know” if you’re going to try to lose fat. It’s a terrific foundation of knowledge that maintains focus on the goal, not the method. Recommended to all.

Thanks for not ripping me to hard their Gob.

I would like to say that the detail of which Gob here went through my material was pretty impressive. He gave me a lot of detailed information and this review doesn't show have the time he took to throughly go through my matieral. I got very great feedback and when the 2nd edition of The Troubleshoot drops you are going to have Tony to thank for some of the improvements.

19.99 sounds like a value price. That's a good thing.
