Used Book

I have tried every type of training regime and diet over 40 years and without a doubt this is the clearest and simplest training regime you could ever follow. It works, pure and simple.

I found this book a few years ago, and thought what the heck I will give it a shot, and literally 10 weeks later I was standing in a store and one of my buddies I hadn't seen in a while came in with his wife and they almost didn't recognize me? I went back to put on the pants that I was wearing when I started the program......They were too baggy to wear.If you read the negative reviews here it is usually from people that tried the program for a week and didn't follow thru. It really isn't a difficult program, actually it is quite easy to follow. You get to eat six times a day, and on Sundays, anything you want....Actually after a while you forget about the Sunday thing. The only reason I stopped the program was that I had hurt my back years before, and I finally went in to see a therapist, they tell me to stop working out, with out even asking me what kind of work out I was doing, (For the record the one I was doing was easier on my back then what they were having me do!) and they put me on their w/o, sure enough my back got worse and I gained 20 lbs. (For the record the therapist and their "Chain" are noted in the area that I live as the worst place anyone can go to for back issues, and this is coming from the local people at the local Hospital. Every time I mention the particular therapists name, I see Dr.'s faces cringe!)I have tried w/o with personal trainers, I have tried with PT's & I have tried Gym Memberships, but all I am going to say is this, this book and this program worked better then anything I have ever tried, it is a very easy program, you learn to go at your own pace, (With a Personal Trainer all they wanted was $400 and they pushed me like I was training for the Olympics?) This book is one of the few books on working out, eating a more healthy diet and staying fit that I have ever seen that is reasonable, and works.If you are trying to look like Arnold, this may not be the book for you, this is a book about overall fitness, not overall "Steroid" look. I have read thru most of the posts here, and I noted that the people that wanted an overall healthy life, and who were just trying to stay healthy gave this book a good review, the ones who wanted overnight results and wanted to look like Arnold were the ones that didn't like the book. If you buy this book, and use it for 12 weeks in the way they suggest's, one thing I can speak from personal experience is this, you will lose weight, and you will be more fit and look better then you have in quite a while. No Fluff, no external pills to buy, no special exercise machine, just buy the book, and have some basic work out equipment and you are ready to go. For the record, I used and still use an old Soloflex Machine that I bought off of ebay years ago. If you want, you can just use a basic set of weights. (This time because I am living in a different place and my Soloflex is in Storage, I will be using the "TRX Suspension Trainer". I am sure I will get the same results. BTW the TRX is a pretty neat tool as well, it lets you work out anywhere.)

"You can change your body, your mind, your life!"とてもポジティブになれる本です。週５日の運動（ダンベル＋有酸素運動）と低脂肪・高たんぱくの食事をメインとしたダイエット法なのですが、手にされた方は何よりもまず表紙裏のbefore/afterの写真に驚かれると思います。私は実行してまだ間もないので、本当にあれくらいdrasticな変化を得られるかはわかりませんが、プログラムのメニュー的には無理なく実行できる範囲だと思います。ただ、１日６回小さな食事を取ることや、本に出てくるのと同じプロテインを飲む、といったルールは、時間的・経済的な面を考えて個々人でカスタマイズする必要があるのではないかと思います。私はダイエットの本としてだけでなく、著者の言葉のひとつひとつがシンプルながらとても強い力に溢れているのに感銘しました。読んだ後、人は変われるんだ、私も変われるんだ、というパワーがもらえる本だと思います。自分を変えたいと思っている方や、モチベーションを上げたい方などにお勧めです。
