Customer Reviews

She is THE expert in getting lean!

If you've ever wanted to get in shape quickly but not with some silly or harmful gimmick, Gina is the expert in "leaning out". This term much more accurately describes what happens to your body on her program than merely "losing weight". It is not easy at first, but the quick results will inspire you to keep up the healthy (and portion-controlled) eating as well as the challenging workouts! Gina is the best!

Fitness results sooner than you every believed possible

Gina Lombardi has earned the reputation in Los Angeles as the go-to coach and trainer for show biz performers who need to shape up fast for upcoming appearances and projects. In Deadline Fitness the author reveals all of the secrets in a healthy approach that gets quick results. As a wellness coach, I appreciated her scientific approach to the whole topic of fitness. The author clearly has advanced knowledge and professional experience in diet and nutrition but avoided explanations that could easily confuse or bore the reader. It's all dropped in the reader's lap in a simple and easy to understand way. In fact the entire book has really advanced information about the whole topic. I consider myself pretty knowledgeable about exercise but Gina Lombardi opened my eyes to routines that have supercharged my workouts and allowed me to get more done in less time without ever falling into the same-old-same-old rut. This book would deserve praise by being distinguished simply as a guide to achieving fitness and weight loss goals in a short amount of time. But the author does not stop there. The final chapter introduces the keys to maintaining your "new body for life." Again, Ms. Lombardi teaches the reader to know the numbers and how to calculate the number of calories needed per day to maintain your new weight based on activity level. I can't think of anyone who is interested in dropping weight and toning up who would not find this book valuable and enjoyable to read.
