Turbulence Training - This workout is perfect for busy men and women; but its not a routine that is going to turn anyone into a pro
bodybuilder. If you want maximum muscle and want to bulk up, try
another one of Craig's programs or I can help you create a plan. The Turbulence Training system is
best for burning fat without sacrificing muscle - so you end up lean,
defined, chiseled and toned. And its fun! So
many workouts are boring (i.e. long cardio) or repetitive (i.e. doing
the same bodybuilding workout over and over again). But Turbulence
Training uses a lot of unique (but not fluffy) exercises, including
some cool, killer bodyweight moves that will make you more athletic and
increase your functional and core strength - again, all with minimal
equipment needs. Many of the critical elements of Captain Quinn's Boot Camp were adapted from Turbulence Training.
Fit Over 40 - One of the best-selling fitness e-books in history, Fit Over 40 profiles 54 real-world role models dedicated to sharing their secrets to a life of fitness and health.
Fit Over 40 comes in two versions: E-book (PDF) format and an optional upgrade to the Success For Life Kit which includes a paperback
version. Both versions come complete with five free e-book downloads.
100 Ways to Boost Your Metabolism - The definitive
download-able guide to using dietary supplements, nutritional science,
and exercise secrets to melt fat, build lean muscle, and jump start your
daily metabolism! I've read several of Ben's books. He's a world class athlete and trainer and knows his stuff.
This book changed the way I think about running and reminded me of the simple joy of running we knew as kids but often lose as adults. Full of incredible characters, amazing athletic achievements, cutting-edge science, and, most of all, pure inspiration, Born to Run is an epic adventure that began with one simple question: Why does my foot hurt? In search of an answer, Christopher McDougall sets off to find a tribe of the world’s greatest distance runners and learn their secrets, and in the process shows us that everything we thought we knew about running is wrong. Will we all be running bare foot decades from now?
This book is the reason I was able to go out for drinks and dinner several hours after completing the NYC Marathon. Marathon running is a sport that many consider too daunting, better in the viewing than the doing. Olympian Jeff Galloway dispels such notions in a book that takes the mystery — and misery — out of distance running. "Marathon!" shows how just about anyone can run a marathon and, given the right attitude and training, finish the race. Galloway has designed a low-mileage marathon training program that has been used by over 10,000 people with a 98 percent success rate. The book includes the latest information on workouts, form innovations, pace charts, prediction tables, and motivation strategies.
