My only complaint is that he doesn't write about any strength training exercises using weight machines at the gym. He just shows at-home exercises (which are also great and detailed). But some people like using machines sometimes.
I've read a lot of fitness/nutrition books and it's the same stuff, too complicated, or not interesting. But this is different. If you follow the plan, you'll see results!I'm a 36-year old mother of 2, and have been trying for the last few years to find a workout routine that would fit into my busy schedule. Before I had kids, I went to the gym religiously for step aerobics and weight training. I really missed being in shape and being toned. I started doing yoga, and then pilates. When I came across David's book on the internet, it caught my attention. I've been doing David's workout for 5 months now, and I feel great! I've received many compliments from family and friends on how healthy and in shape I look. I love David's workout because I can do it anywhere I recently took a pair of dumbbells and the book with me on vacation. I also love the fact that the exercises are designed for everyone, no matter what body type/shape you are. I highly recommend this book for anyone who is looking for the path towards physical, emotional and spiritual wellness.I only finished this book yesterday so I am just starting my 6-week program, but what I love about this book is David's sincere approach to helping people change, not only their bodies, but their lives. David's book has inspired me to stop making excuses for why I eat the way I do or why I skip my workouts and be honest with myself about my lifestyle. He makes me want to live a healthy, positive, inspiring life like his. But if you really just want to get in shape, this book gives you EVERY detail you need to do so. He even breaks down the workouts for 5 different body types so it's not difficult to understand. I have purchased several different diet and/or exercise books over the years and now I can throw them all away. David's book is my new bible.David's program is unique because he gives you all the tools, information and motivation you need to design your own workout. No set number of reps, no set in stone program. He gives great suggestions for making exercise enjoyable and they work! This book is about getting your best body and it delivers! He is a gentle motivator and emphasizes the spiritual aspect which is the key to the programs success. This is the first program I have followed that I have loved. Did I mention the absolutely delicious recipes? I've never eaten this well before or felt so good.
I have been a follower of pilates, the Zone and Ann Louise Gittleman but they all lacked something for me. This combines the mental stimulation of pilates with the punch of a real workout. It is sensible, delicious eating that isn't as restrictive as Ann Louises programs yet you get the same results ( I did). And it's realhe says when you are in a bind, a Big Mac or spaghetti bolognese is the best option when you are on the go and don't have a lot to choose from and I love him for saying that! After reading that, I knew this was a plan that I could live with.
This, like any lifestyle change, takes commitment but if you are a beginnerthis is the best place to start.
