The top 1% leanest males in the United States have only 10.9% body fat (where you can barely see the top abdominals), which is pathetic as a fitness industry outcome, especially since 18% of males have used anabolic steroids but still only 1% can achieve below 10.9% body fat

PhDs in biomedical research don't have medical licenses to practice medicine because they don't practice medicine; rumors that Jaquish lost his medical license are false because he never had one

Peer review removes author identity to prevent bias based on name, race, or gender, making it one of the fairest processes in professional life and potentially a model that should be applied more broadly

Most people criticizing X3 online are driven by jealousy (seeing someone else succeeding) rather than legitimate scientific critique; they are excluded from being customers because they can't overcome their own jealousy

Blood flow restriction (BFR) bands are unnecessary when using X3 because variable resistance already produces hypoxia through constant tension, and combining BFR with X3 provides no additional benefit while adding recovery cost (1+1=1, not 1+1=2)

A study showed that people eating every 48 hours (one large meal every 48 hours with same total calories as control group) gained 4 kilos of muscle over approximately 18 weeks with zero exercise, while the regular eating group lost 4 kilos of muscle, demonstrating anabolic signaling from fasting patterns

Variable resistance training stimulates both myofibrillar growth (from heavy loads) and sarcoplasmic growth (from high reps) simultaneously in a single session, whereas traditional periodization required alternating between these two growth mechanisms on different days

Carbohydrates are not truly a macronutrient but rather exist in nature to get you fatter when it's advantageous (before winter) and are not essential for most bodily functions, which is why only fat and protein are real macronutrients

Most amino acid products on the market don't have the proper formulation to be usable by the body, with only a couple companies (besides Jaquish's) making properly formulated essential amino acids

People who do not lift heavy enough even to use the white (lightest) X3 band and return it represent a deconditioned population that has become normal, indicating the severity of fitness failure in society.

The book avoids mentioning p-values and detailed statistical significance measures because the general public cannot understand them and would lose comprehension

X3 has a 1% return rate compared to 30% for most consumer products, indicating very high customer satisfaction; most returns come from people who couldn't even use the white (lightest) band

Fortagen was developed with help from a cancer treatment company that generates hundreds of millions in sales using amino acid formulations to prevent muscle wasting during chemotherapy and radiation

A competitor product (neon green colored bands) exists that offers only about 30 lbs of resistance compared to X3's 600+ lbs in the strong range, making it significantly inferior despite having marketing appearance and attractive models

The fitness industry attracts misinformation because scientists and researchers largely ignore it as unserious, leaving it vulnerable to marketing-driven narratives and pseudoscience without academic scrutiny.

Veganism is an eating disorder comparable to anorexia and bulimia, it is malnutrition that will go down in history as such, because billions of animals are destroyed in vegetable farming (birds poisoned, mice ground up by tillers, deer shot) making the claim of ethical veganism fraudulent

Branch chain amino acids (BCAAs) do nothing and are worthless; you need all essential amino acids at once or they go to waste and turn into nitrogen waste, which is why Fortagen (proper essential amino acid formulation) is effective despite being only 4 calories

Heavy is relative to the range of motion in variable resistance training; using a 540 lb resistance band at the strong end of the chest press range is 'heavy' even if it takes 20+ repetitions because the band is light at the weak range, so higher rep counts with bands do not indicate light training

Myostatin is regulated by cardiac axis (the heart and its connected nerves determine myostatin levels based on blood flow signals), so blood flow restriction affects the entire body systemically, causing muscles not directly involved in BFR to grow even when only arms are restricted

Isolation exercises like leg presses (where the body is stabilized externally) miss an entire growth hormone regulatory process that requires self-stabilization, which is why athletes perform better than pure bodybuilders for general athletic capability
