FEATURED COMMENTS

We love getting comments from our growing BuiltLean community and we are grateful for everyone’s participation. If one of our articles inspires you to give a little more your next workout, or try something new, let us know. We’ve had some great feedback on articles that have come out this month and wanted to share a few of them.

1) “Excellent article Charlie! I also have done quite a bit research because so many people recommend this is the way to go nowadays (especially vegans). I found similar results as to yours (basically no hard evidence showing its great digestive benefits). I also agree with you that with the majority of people should keep it simple and just eat a well balanced healthy diet limiting processed foods. (or as I say do what bruce lee did!). Great article Charlie!”
-Carson: Is Food Combining A Diet Myth? Don’t Be Fooled.

2) “I just wanted to say that I love the site and the help that you guys have given me in achieving my weight loss. I came across the BuiltLean in the beginning of 2012 and went from 204lb (24.5%) down to 178lb (14%).”
-Adam, New York

3) “Hi, I really appreciate the time and effort you put in writing these really helpful articles.
Over a month ago I started facing a weight loss plateau that seemed like it would never go away, I tried very hard to break it but my steady state cardio wasn’t that effective, even though I used to jog for 35 minutes for 3 times a week there was no results! but after reading about HIIT and understanding that it is the best cardio to burn fat I decided to give it a shot, and this article helped me decide which HIIT workout I should choose. Right now, after one week if doing HIIT and some strength training I was able to break my weight loss plateau and lose 3 pounds!

Thank you very much for helping me continue my weight loss journey!”
