  1. Simple, to the point, really informative
    By Eliza watson on February 6, 2019
    Was a great first LTB course for me to take, full of science backed information, I learned loads from three short lessons!!
  2. A really thought-provoking course
    By Frank Quinn on July 19, 2020
    An excellent course from Danny Lennon. It's always interesting to get a more nuanced understanding of a topic that you previously considered fairly straight forward.
  3. Loved it!
    By Dawn Mcewan on March 23, 2019
    This really opened my eyes on the benefits of larger calorie deficits. Really interesting.
  4. Interesting!
    By Bethany Stevens on January 10, 2021
    Great way to look into calorie deficits, the studies also were interesting to see ways of which people benefited from more aggressive deficits.
  5. Great quick course
    By colt sainas on May 30, 2019
    great to the point course on what a calorie deficit is and how to create one, I really like how he used (%) for deficits rather than just a hard (#) of calories when creating the level of deficit.
  6. Short & Informative!
    By Angi Pilika on May 12, 2019
    A great course to top up your calorie deficit knowledge or to learn the basics. Covers some great scientific studies too!
  7. Short - Insightful - Practical
    By John Donaghey on July 25, 2019
    I really liked this course because it opened my mind to using aggressive approaches in the right manner for the right clients.

    I loved the studies that I can now use for reference for blogs and client educations.

    I was one of those trainers who always goes slow and steady but this has changed my mind quite significantly and I will try to apply the right strategy with each new client.
  8. extremely useful and in-depth short course.
    By Ashley Sabin on September 12, 2019
    I think the title of this review about sums it up. The comparisons between larger calorie deficits to shorter ones was looked at from a few different angles, with plenty of studies sited, and was actually thought of in real world scenarios.

    this course was a very productive use of time (especially considering its a short course) and definitely provided me with things I will use with clients.
  9. Great course
    By Erica Pease on October 6, 2019
    Calorie deficits can at once seem simple and mega complicated so this course was great in getting a few ideas and strategies . clear in my head.
  10. First one, really enjoyed it!
    By Philly Kinsella on November 8, 2019
    This was a really great way to jump in for my first Lift The Bar course. Every time I listen to Danny I learn something and this was no different. I definitely picked up some really useful lines of thinking here...my advice is grab a pen and paper, jot things down as you go and enjoy it :-)
