Publisher's summary
Do any of the following claims sound familiar?
"I have bad genetics - I just can't build muscle or lose fat easily."
"You have to work your abs more to get a six-pack."
"When doing cardio, you want your heart rate in the 'fat burning zone'."
"Don't eat carbohydrates - they make you fat."
"Don't eat at night if you want to lose weight."
"If you wait too long between meals, your body goes into 'starvation mode' and you will mess up your metabolism."
"I'm overweight because I have a slow metabolism."
You've probably heard one or more of these statements before, and the sad truth is lies like these have ruined many people's fitness ambitions.
Muscle Myths was written to debunk the most commonplace and harmful gimmicks, fads, myths, and misinformation in the health and fitness industry.
Here are just some of the things you'll learn in this book:
- Why you don't have to completely cut out carbs or fat, or eat weird combinations of food to lose weight.
- The truth about supplements.
- The truth about the effects of fasting and the "starvation mode" myth.
- Why eating a substantial amount of carbohydrates every day won't make you fat as some "experts" claim, but why going low-carb can be beneficial for some.
- The scientific secrets of getting a six-pack.
- Training and diet methods that will completely shatter any perceived "genetic barriers" that you think are holding you back.
- What you need to know about alcohol and its effects on your fat loss and muscle growth. (Hint: It's not nearly as bad as some people claim, and you don't have to totally abstain if you know what you're doing!)
- And much more.
Special Bonus! With this book you'll also get a free 31-page bonus report from the author called "The No-BS Truth about Building Muscle, Getting Shredded, and Staying Healthy".

Story
You aren’t stuck with the body you have. You can make it better, even if you’ve mishandled it, and it’s far simpler than many people believe. Because here’s the truth: Every day, your body’s biology is changing. It’s getting stronger or weaker, younger or older, healthier or sicker, and the driving factor behind these changes isn’t your genes, environment, or even your age—it’s your lifestyle.

Is this a workout book that can make you look and feel like you’re twenty again in thirty days flat? Is it a fitness book full of diet and exercise “hacks” and “shortcuts” for gaining lean muscle and melting belly fat faster than a sneeze in a cyclone? Absolutely not. But is it an exercise and nutrition book that’ll guide you on how to eat and exercise to lose pounds of fat and gain eye-catching amounts of muscle definition and strength? YES.

Excellent book! Would definitely recommend.
Would you consider the audio edition of Muscle Myths: 50 Health & Fitness Mistakes You Don't Know You're Making to be better than the print version?
A must read if you want to know the truth about fitness, the myths that are holding you back and what it really takes to get super fit in the most efficient and effective way.

Another great one by Michael Matthews
This book does an excellent job filling in the gaps you may have in you fitness and nutrition knowledge. It is the perfect book to listen to after you finish "Bigger Leaner Stronger: The Simple Science of Building the Ultimate Male Body." I highly recommend it. The content, writing style, and narration are all top notch.

Decent material, but the reader sounds like a punk
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
If I had a friend who was dedicated to body-building, then I might recommend this book. My hesitation comes from the fact that the "science" the author keeps talking about is never cited.
Who was your favorite character and why?
N/A
How could the performance have been better?
The reader is very, very annoying. He sounds like a muscle-head and the entire time I kept thinking that there was something... condescending about his voice.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Not really/

Great book!!
This book is perfect for anyone looking to find simple yet in depth health and fitness information based in science and experience. And the narrator, Jeff Justice, guides you through it effortlessly. So easy to listen to and comprehend. I would definitely try other books by Mike Mathews given the integrity of this one. Thanks so much.

Good start to building the body of your dreams
If you are thinking of making a change to your body, then listen to this book. Might just save you money, time and pain. No quick fix but debunks some of the myths of building the body of your dreams. Don't just listen to this book as you need to do some more research which will probably confuse you but it is a great start.

great to the the point
Any additional comments?
i really enjoyed this read and the information makes sense and can be looked up for verification. i follow another fitness personality and their information if on the same page. its a great read and reminds you of a lot of things, you may have forgotten from bigger leaner stronger or thinner leaner stronger. if your new to Mike Matthews and not sure if you should invest, this book may be a good choice before bigger leaner stronger. i thought so. im a long time lifter and it helped me simplify and correct some of the mistakes i was making in the gym and in my diet while i read bigger leaner stronger.
