Stubborn Fat Solution
Who is this guy?
| My name is Lyle McDonald. For years I’ve sought out dieting solutions that worked and I’m known in the industry for producing exactly that. I use a combination of scientific research, personal experience (and experimentation), along with the feedback I’ve gotten from clients, trainers, and my test subjects.
People come to me for the cutting edge of nutrition and training for fat loss, muscle gain, and the science of human performance. My articles, books and newsletter have helped thousands to change their bodies for the better. You can also read my blog. |
What does this product claim?
| The Stubborn Fat Solution will not only answer every question you might have had about body fat metabolism and what makes stubborn body fat so stubborn, it will give you all of the tools that are needed to get rid of it.
The Stubborn Fat Solution is NOT a specific diet; rather it presents 4 specific protocols (of nutrition and training with some optional supplements) that can be integrated with your current diet and training program to attack and remove stubborn fat. |

Chapters 1-7 are essentially a physiology lesson. These chapters cover What fat itself is, fat’s role, distinguishing different types, and how these fats respond to hormones.
Chapter 8 briefly discusses diet, exercise, and supplements in relation to fat loss expanding on the previous chapters with specific examples of how fat reacts to different stimuluses brought on by the above topics.
Chapters 9-10 introduce the “stubborn fat protocols” with guidance as far as what is appropriate for whom and clear instructions on the implementation of these protocols.
Commentary:
Leigh Peele mentioned in a quick review that this book was not an easy read. I can’t speak for her but, I personally got through it in one sitting without fear of nodding off once. Lyle McDonald is pretty much the master of explaining incredibly detailed processes in a way that most people can understand whether you have a background in the area or not. He also has a fantastic way of drawing back when material is not necessarily contributing to the over all cause. There are several instances when a process might be described as “X is happening. It does Y and that’s all you need to know”. It’s refreshing to have access to a subject if you want to dive deeper into it for your own reference without being beat over the head with technical data that might not be particularly important as far as application goes. The over all tone is light and smooth. Topics transition and build nicely with the over all experience being comparable to a somewhat higher end article in a major exercise magazine.
The protocols themselves are intended for those that have already found success in their dietary adventures and have a solid grasp of nutrition and that’s pretty much laid right out there on the advertising page. This is NOT intended for someone that has no background in diet manipulation or no abs. You need both before passing go. That said someone desiring to know more about how fat…and who doesn’t?…could pick up this book and find out quite a bit of interesting and accessible information.
The book mentions that fat loss (especially males) is more of a patience game than a scientific game. With this in mind you’re armed with the information behind the approaches presented and given 4 different protocols that can be used independently or stacked depending on your personal motivation and needs. These protocols are a different approach to the relatively anal UD2.0, in that Lyle already assumes that you know your body and lifestyle (after all you’ve dieted to the point to where the information is relevant) and doesn’t supply a step by step blueprint but a general idea approach to what the reader needs to do to achieve those bottom two abs. Each protocol is progressive and well explained with appropriate guidance and warnings in a way that anyone could read the describing pages and implement immediately and effectively.
The Stubborn Fat Solution covers fat from a multitude of angles. The information is interesting and whether you’re interested in why your boobs are shrinking yet your butt is growing, or why some fat literally feels different than others, it’s covered. The book does what it promises, doing a great job as presenting information in an easy to understand way with specific guidance on who the information is applicable to. Recommended.
