The May edition is up on the Express site!

Ok everyone, the May issue is up live on my website! I really want to thank you all for your support, as we just keep growing.

In this month’s issue:

  • Bill Willis writes about epigenetics. Bill once again delivers, you’ll love this.
  • Scott Stevenson writes about animal hypertrophy models – awesome as usual.
  • Ken Skip Hill is our special guest interview. I have known Skip for a long time, and I quite frankly think the world of this guy. He has been around a long time, and his field experience and logical thinking shines in an industry that needs it.
  • The workout of the month is a brutal leg workout for those who have squatting limitations.
  • Our behind the scenes contest prep details are on Max Fairchild. After this article went live, Max went on to sweep the Superheavy and Overall titles at the Ronnie Coleman classic last weekend!
  • And of course Q&A!

"I have known Johnny for close to 15 years now. I have witnessed countless times his methodical process on how to get lean, by seeing what he does to himself, and his clients. Johnny has a love for nutrition and seeking out the truth, that is unmatched. he is extremely passionate about his views on fats, cholesterol and many other topics. His views are not necessarily mainstream, but they are, in my medical opinion, the correct views. There are many so called "gurus" out there but Johnny's combination of experience, education and burning curiosity to seek out truth set him above the rest."
