Anyone who watched the whole show would see that it works.

I wonder where the myth came from that one could gain 200%.

I disagree with always. Sometimes, yes, but others, I want to scream at Netflix for their ridiculousness. I stopped watching it a while ago, but many many episodes are just whack-a-doo with their method or baseline ideas. I have never heard such a ridiculous claim as 200%, most people don't believe 25-50% improvement is possible, let alone that.
