28-Day Body Shapeover

I'm 59 and have been lifting weights 5 years. I've read and tried several authors' programs, but only this book has the complete program--like I've never seen before. It has a weight program for those who use the gym, and for those who work out at home--clearly mapped out, clear process instructions, with photos of the movements. It has stretching exercises after every exercise; this is very unusual, and I feel is so important to include to strengthen and heal muscles while avoiding injuries. The streches are also clearly explained and there are photos of these movements as well. The book has an aerobic plan for each week which increases in intensity (based on your personal measurement) to increase your endurance, and your fat-burning capability. Finally, it has a diet plan...and while I don't use it all, there are some excellent suggestions and full explanations for his suggestions. I highly recommend this book--young or old, a seasoned weight lifter, or a person new to weights, a person who works out at the gym, or one who works out at home--it's complete.

Excellent Book !!!!

I am very impressed with this book. Buy it today! It is so easy to follow. A person who has never worked out before would feel at ease using it. And, for those who workout often, it is a great way to hone your body sculpting skills and success in less than one month! Through the use of pictures, the author provides the reader excercises they can use whether at the gym or home. The nutrition plan is easy to follow and has "normal" food. No fluff in the book, no fad diets, no pushing of supplements - just the honest truth. He has done a real service to the public and the fitness industry by creating such a solid book.

Definitely see a difference!

I have gained so much muscle and toning since starting this program! It is easy to follow and really not that difficult. The best thing about it is that its not about "more" time at the gym or working out, its about making that time more efficient/effective! I take it to the gym with me, but it also gives at-home versions of the workouts so if you can't make it to the gym or don't belong to one you can still do the program! Definitely give it a try and follow it closely- you will see results!

The Real Deal!!!

I have done just about every program out there and none have come close to the results I've gotten from this book. I bought it for New Years and in my first go around lost twelve pounds in the month. On my second go around for February I lost another nine pounds. I now can see my muscles and I finally have triceps where the fat used to be! No more jiggly arms!!! I have gotten so many compliments from people in my office and I owe it all to this book. This is now a lifestyle for me and I now know the right way to eat and exercise to keep the weight off forever.

It works!

I have just finished my third week on this program and I'm really happy with the results. I've lost five pounds on the scale, but more importantly my body feels toner and my clothes fit better. The book is very easy to follow. It has separate pages for each of the 28 days of the program with exactly what you are supposed to eat and exercise. There are home workouts provided but I take this to the gym with me. It makes it really easy to just go through the workout knowing the exact routine. I really like the exercise descriptions which are clear and with good pictures to show exactly what you need to do. I'm excited to keep using this over the coming months. My goal is to lose a total of 20 pounds and get really toned for summer!
