I understand its really just an advertisement for a book purchase but are any of these claims anywhere close to true? This would be the first time ive heard of this

In addition to pharmbiak's article, you can also have a read through these. Whether you will really see any increased muscle synthesis and whether the extra rep/weight effect will last beyond the short-term is debatable. If you're going to try using bicarb like this though, be very cautious of the added sodium to your diet, and avoid using the higher doses used in the studies.
