Stuart McRobert (born 1958 in England) is a writer on strength training, best known as the founder and publisher of Hardgainer magazine.
In addition to Hardgainer, McRobert has published numerous articles in popular bodybuilding magazines such as Iron Man.
He has written several popular books: McRobert is focused on strength training for the so-called "hardgainer"; someone who is not a natural athlete (i.e. the vast majority of trainees).
He feels that most of the workouts that are published in the bodybuilding press and magazines are not effective for normal people (without genetic advantages and/or the use of steroids) and will either be ineffective or induce injury if attempted.
McRobert also endorses Active Release Techniques and Trigger Point Therapy between workouts to minimize discomfort and injury.
