But...but...JP said that a high fat diet, starving yourself for 23.5 hours and doing 1,000 Atlas XIV pushups with a weight vest and using his seatbelt would only produce results like that.   In fact, he's got more muscle and is more muscular than ever before!!!


And a vegan??

(...ok, time for Bruv to weigh in)

He's not a body weight training guy, just for the workshop because it's more convenient to get everyone working out, it's only $5 to go.

This is the Gym he'll be at (not my style) ...

Cheek follows a diet very close to what Dr. John McDougall, MD, recommends if I'm not mistaken.  (And I very well could be.)

Hell yeah! "People have lived on potato as the sole source of nutrients"! You betcha!

I believe magician Penn Jillette( so?) used a potato only diet to jump start his disappearing act of over 100# of bodyweight
