Solitary Fitness 29 Jan 2009
Format:Paperback
An interesting read, that does 2 things. Firstly, it improves the physique and general fitness. Secondly, it gives an insight into Charles Bronson, through his narrative and unique pictures. For the price the book is informative and good value way to improve fitness and physique on a low budget and without having the hassle of joing a gym. Great for these credit crunch days!

Perhaps the most unusual chapter is on the solitary organ- how to improve sexual stamina, strength and health of the organ in question! Possible a great confidence booster to those searching for more length, girth and performance!Throw away all those gimmicks, apparently all you need is a heavy towell!

Overall, a good book for the money and in these frugal times when we are all searching for ways to achieve the same effect for the minimal outlay.

A word for the publishers- it would be nice if the photos had better definition, otherwise the drawings get the points across.

Format:Paperback
Well, what can I say now that my body isn't carrying much fat! I began this course some two months ago and gave it my all, followed every routine religiously and now I have reaped the rewards.

This regime of workouts is an inexpensive way of toning and honing your body. I can understand how some people might fall by the wayside when it comes to this sort of strict workout, but you have to be tough in yourself. And like the cliche, softies need not apply, this applies equally as well with this mode of body workout that sculptures you from head to toe.

So here I am, brand new and ready to pursue the rest of the course with gusto. I really have a lot to thank Mr Bronson for, although I'm sure he would rather be free in order to pursue his own dreams.

My whole way of eating has changed,which came about naturally and without any applied effort. Years of fat buildup dropped away to reveal my old self beneath. I really look forward to the exercises and feel that I now have more energy, although at first I felt very tired after each exercise routine.

True, this is not a workout for wannabe body builders. It is, though, a practical way to tackle and change your unhealthy lifestyle, which it has done for me.

Bronco Fitness 4 April 2003
By A Customer
Format:Paperback
Well, I've been lifting weights for approximately 7 years and doing other sorts of fitness and strength training such as kicknoxing for about 2-3 years but this book gave me a new change of direction.

It's good both for experienced and inexperienced people, it's basically about getting back to basics. I didn't particularly like some of the exercises, but I guess this book is based around having no equipment, but I did like the methods of training and quite a few of the basic exercises such as burpees, squats, press ups, etc. and some of the techniques.

It's not an encyclopedia of fitness or anything like that, it's aimed at people who are looking at getting fit without going to a gym, with the added bonus of having no equipment requirements.

Well worth a read, especially for £8. If nothing else, Bronco's drawings and stories are worth a read!

This book is far better than the 'SAS fitness' type ones I have seen, it focusses more on the exercises and is good for people who want to exercise and more experienced people looking at getting back to basics or a change in training routines.
