Just a forewarning, Duchaine's writing style is a little aggressive, but the man was the only person who could justafiably be called a "guru".
It's a shame that he passed recently, as he was one author that I really follwed on a month to month basis to see what new theories that he came up with.
Dan Duchaine always was on the cutting edge of performance enhancement, and even published his own "Dirty Dieting" newsletter catering mainly to the hardcore bodybuilding audience.
His understanding of human biochemistry and the various ways to manipulate it thru diet, supplementation, etc. has yet to be equalled.
That said, BodyOpus is a great book, written with bodybuilding in mind, but still is the standard.
I also have to say that Lyle is the man too, but Dan Duchaine will always be #1 in my book.
I learned many of the "tricks" that I have posted here from his various writings over the years in (early, pre-BFL) Muscle Media magazine, Ironman magazine, as well as his web-based articles, and some personal correspondence.
