The Body Fat Guide

Rating:
Summary: Useless
Review: As a personal trainer and aerobics instructor for 15 years, I was very upset by all the incorrect, non-scientific and misleading information. Obviously the authour has very limited knowledge of the subject matter. He has based his theories on personal experience and anecdotal evidence-not research. He does not site references nor does he offer any scientic support for his OPINION. Reader beware of any diet or exercise book that does not site references! Most of his recommendations are down right wrong...amount of calories, intensity of aerobic exercise, high very-very high reps for strength training(shows his lack of knowledge of exercise physiology).

Summary: Don't waste your money!
Review: There are so many better books out there on health and fitness, don't bother with this one. I just had my body fat done and the charts in the book are completely wrong. Also, 3/4 of the book is charts. The remaining 1/4 is just the most general fitness info you could find anywhere. probably on the back of a Special K box.
