Goal setting - essential,clear
and simple
|
|
|
| 2. |
Why diets fail - oh
yes indeedy! Very good clear chapter - you will never go on
a low calorie
diet again. Bit
technical and lots of detail Ideas on not feeling hungry and
deprived…well written and useful.
|
|
|
| 3. |
Finding out your own body composition
- useful, goes into exhaustive detail. Best for serious athletes. |
|
|
| 4. |
Charting your progress - strategies for not
giving up - you don't get anything for nothing. Very motivational. |
|
|
| 5. |
Body type. Interesting chapter. Work with
what you've got - no excuse. Too much detail - long winded & technical.
|
|
|
| 6. |
Technical food science
stuff. Serious, heavy and intense. Well written & researched.
For those people who are really into this stuff and want to
know down
to the
last calorie how much they need.
|
|
| 7. |
Lots of stuff about eating 6 times a day! Chapter
for slightly obsessives. Basics of eating regular meals useful.
Ideas on food combining make sound nutritional sense.
|
|
|
| 8. |
More food combining!
Again, for the serious bodybuilder . Oh all right, bits of
it are useful
for us lesser
mortals and it's all technically correct. Personally, I found
the food boring, but that’s because I’m a pig!
|
|
|
| 9. |
Chapter on good and
bad fats, Educational. Explodes the low - fat food theories
and isn’t keen on
Atkins. (With you all the way there, Tom!). Everybody should
read this
chapter. And you get a chemistry lesson.
|
|
|
| 10. |
All about protein & yet
more about protein. Gosh, Tom loves his protein. The word bodybuilder
comes up
in practically every sentence. Did I mention the protein? For
serious weighttrainers.
|
|
|
| 11. |
Carbs chapter. See above. Leans towards low
carb. GI index info topical and very good. Worth reading.
|
|
|
| 12. |
|
How to get lean as a bodybuilder using low carbs.
Says it all.
|
|
| 13. |
Drink water. Er, yes.
Good advice. Perhaps not QUITE so much water. Oh and alcohol
is poison. Right.
|
|
|
| 14. |
What to eat...now we're getting down to the
nitty-gritty. There's ALWAYS an alternative to eating junk,
no matter where you are. Very good chapter telling you exactly
what to eat and not eat...although your head won't explode
if you actually do have a doughnut. Lighten up a bit there!
Sound common sense here in this chapter with a user-friendly
list of good & bad foods and really all you need to know
to produce good nourishing meals. I'm not personally keen on
all this protein shake stuff for your average normal non-weightlifter...I
think you can get plenty of protein from a good eating regime
and I don't class these things as unprocessed. Shoot me! Good
section on what to order in restaurants.
|
|
|
| 15. |
Supplements and how much the big
companies would like you to buy them. No arguments from me
about this chapter.
Although I think you can't go wrong with a good Multivitamin
supplement a day. Nothing to do
with Bob working for Seven Seas :). And you don't need Creatine
supplements unless you are training really seriously.
|
|

The training schedule. At last. What cardio
exercise to do. Lots of detail and quite technical regarding
RPE (Rate of Perceived Exertion) and optimal heart rate zones,
but really good advice. All you need to know about aerobic
training. Is good stuff.
Compares different types of cardio training, i.e walking, swimming,
biking etc
|
|

The weight training chapter. Hooray.
This is the one that women especially should read and follow.
No, you
won't build muscles like Popeye! Ladies, listen up...aerobic
training on its own isn't enough. You gotta do some work with
weights!!
This chapter should be much nearer the top. By the time you
get to this point, you’ll have possibly lost the will
to live. Read it...digest it. DO IT!!
Good FAQ section in this bit. Bit male - oriented (How to bench-press
twice your own bodyweight type stuff... my teacher, Yoda, would
love it).
The importance of stretching is mentioned, which is good.

| CONCLUSION
A very good, very detailed product, and in my opinion well
worth the money. If you follow just a few of these principles
you will get results that will last for the rest of your
life (provided you stick to them). Thank you for taking the time to read this review. Live
long. And prosper. Follow Tom Venuto's advice and you maximise
your chances of doing both. Logical, Captain.
