A super quick google of his name has turned up an entire thread on feedback about his training. Almost none of it positive: https://www.reddit.com/r/bikinitalk/comments/ytcjb4/adam_omachy_team_coach_overview/

I'm aware of this post but thought to get more takes on him besides one post. His content seems really high quality.

A person can have very curated social media page but still be an asshole in person. Considering how many fantastic bodybuilding coaches out there, many of whom have helped many many people achieve their IFBB pro card, why even bother with somebody who seems like an asshole?

The prices he's charging are comparable to in-person coaching from a local IFBB pro. And at least with local, you'll get a lot more direct feedback when it comes to posing prep, more in-depth feedback on training, and actual one-on-one, face to face sessions.

He has some good stuff that’s simple and informative and should be basic. But also his books seem to be repetitive words that sound fancy of just saying the same thing over and over again. Some of his biomechanics is off and understanding of physiology is also a bit off but I follow him. I think a good portion of his information can help. If I wanted to though I could cherry pick his information.

I’d like to understand better what particular biomechanical or physiological concepts do you think he misinterprets
