Herbalife kind of bs? This method is in the Starting Strength book by Mark Rippetoe, so I'm sure it can't just be bs right? It probably works for some people.

And I already know the TDEE and calorie stuff that u mentioned,thanks.
Yea I've started, and so far everything's fine. Just improving my lifting form and figuring out calories in the food that I eat. I'm still learning more about many things though.

Is it really a troll trend? It's recommended by Mark Rippetoe himself in his book.  Although I also think 4 gallons of milk a day is too much, just wondering if anyone tried it before.
