DESCRIPTION:
Stage Two: Now You Are in the Fight. Countless marines have trained with Drill Instructor Walden—and now you can too. But he also knows that if you get off your butt, leave behind that sugary, salty, snacky food you’ve been chewing on, and follow his recipe for exercise success, you’ll turn your life around. Harvey knows all about excuses—from rookie marines to Hollywood celebrities, he’s seen every trick in t
He taught me how to push myself to places I didn't think I could go. "I wish everyone had a Harvey in their lives. I am lucky.". The day he came to my house to work me ou in my gym, I thought I was going to pass out. He's a cool guy and I am grateful we met. I didn't get upset with himIt only motivated me to work out harder the next time and know that I could DO IT. Harvey represents dedication, honesty, motivation, and strength. Harvey taught me to not give up
It is what it says it is Amazon Customer The title says "fitness workout" and that's exactly what you get in this book. You get a big serving of motivation, a little bit of bio, followed by a boot-camp style workout. There's only a small number of pages devoted to diet or offer recipes, but Harvey readily acknowledges he's not a nutritionist or dietitian. Fitness is his expertise. A fitness workout is what the book offers and you get a very effective one.What makes this fitness book different is:1. No equipment needed (except a stopwatch or watch with a second hand).2. Can do anywhere. Enough floor space to do push-ups and leg lifts is all you need.3. No 'reps.' Every. Excellent Workout Book Binko Barnes This excellent workout book returns to the basics.You don't need any fancy equipment in order to work out, you just need motivation. And Harvey does his best to motivate!I own a really fancy elliptical running machine and a large home-gym type weight machine. But I'm selling both of them. Why? Because when you use machines to work out it puts you in an assisted groove. Your muscles are not working completely because the machine holds you on a mechanically preset course.Much better to just use your body, the floor and maybe a few dumbbells. Return to the basics and make progress. Depend on trips to the gym and expensive machines. Good variety of exercises, could use a wall chart ReadNReVu This is a good, no-nonsense book with clear explanations and pictures of each exercise. Also contains a few healthy recipes in the back, and a brief description of what a low GI diet is.My only quibble with this book is that there is no accompanying wall chart, or cheat sheets with smaller pictures/lists of the exercises for cues when you're learning the exercises (Minna Lessig's Tank Top Arms, Bikini Belly and Boy Shorts Bottom book has these in the back). It would be great to have cheat sheets to take with you while traveling, so you can leave the book at home.Hopefully the next edition will correct this oversight, and then i
