Summary: Excellent Workouts
Comment: The text is mostly magazine-type chatter, not without some good information, but the workout sections with photos are very good. I've been doing the excercises for three months and I'm very pleased with the results.

March 2003: now six months on these excercises; when you get bored there are lots of suggestions of other forms of working out that you can follow (eg; running, in-line skating, boxing, etc.). I keep a core routine from this book, however.

Summary: Decent, but repetetive
Comment: This book does contain some decent information on losing weight, aerobic exercise and body-building. Unfortunately, the entire book is written in a very repetetive style that makes reading several chapters in a row quite a chore. In addition, there's a lot of evidence of cut-and-paste editing throughout the book as well. For instance, the book may mention "Dr. Joe Bloggs" in 8 or 9 different chapters. However, in every chapter, the writers will "re-introduce" as though this is the first time he/she has been mentioned, and with nearly identical text: "Dr. Joe. Bloggs, a PhD from Harvard University and a world-renowned physioloigist who also won the Nobel Prize in 1978 and is currently teaching at Brown, had this to say ..." It seems like a minor annoyance, but after several chapters with several of the same experts, it becomes quite monotonous.

The book does have good information, as I mentioned, but there are simply better books out there.

Summary: Banish Your Belly: The Ultimate Guide for Achieving a Lean,
Comment: This is an excellent book that is geared towards those who are serious about losing weight and getting into shape. If you are looking for any magic tricks or fad diets, this is not your book. But if you want a realistic plan to properly exercise and diet, then this is your ticket. The book also has a humorous side, that makes it easier to read than your average textbook.
