Format:Paperback
Let's face it, a lot of us past our mid twenties (and a worrying number who aren't) carry a little bit more weight around than we might like. Whether it's expense account lunches, less time to exercise because of the family or simply developing large bones all of a sudden a lot of men are overweight.
This book provides a lot of information in an informative way and in my opinion treads a good path between giving you the info without being deadly dull. It also dispels a number of myths and makes it clear that long term benefits can be gained if you make sensible eating and exercise part of your routine.
The book is co-authored by Jonathon Savill and Richard Smedley. Jonathon, a journalist, was 19 stone before meeting Richard but at the end of 6 months had shed 8 inches off his gut, cycled 55 miles, swam a mile and a half and climbed a mountain. He doesn't mention roller skating along a beach being pulled by two dalmations to a Dr Alban tune but you can't have everything.
Richard Smedley who supplies the exercise expertise is an ex Parachute regiment officer and now a personal trainer to movie stars like Daniel Day Lewis (Last of the Mohicans not for my Left Foot I hope)and Pearce Brosnan. He clearly knows his stuff and if you are really keen on his style of exercise he is also the featured personal trainer in Men's Fitness magazine.
