Summary: Surprise youself
Comment: I've practiced the various disciplines described in Total Body Transformation - strength training, cardio training (as a bike-riding commuter), and a few yoga classes - separately at various points in my life. I've experienced benefits from each, but never did all three at the same time. I purchased this book because I was interested to see how these different fitness disciplines could be combined into a single practice (also because I was interested in getting myself into great shape).
There are a few impressive things about this book. First is that Ilg has created a schedule that gives you enough of each discipline to experience the benefits of all of them. And not just one schedule, a cyclical regimen you can use to train continuously, without overtraining. The amount of time, learning, and trial and error the author must have spent in constructing such a program is astounding. It's great to have his experience distilled in such a concise, readable form. This is the kind of advice that once only elite athletes could get; now, thanks to Steve Ilg, it's available for the price of a hardcover book.
The most surprising thing about this book is the insights that Ilg provides into the inner experience of doing the program. Lifting weights had always seemed like a pretty mechanical operation to me; before this book, I never considered how mental focus could improve the quality of the exercise. Now, for example, in the middle of a back squat, for, I'll remember a snippet of his advice about what to think about in order to do the exercise better. Similar is his advice to be bold about trying certain movements, like Hang Cleans, that look intimidating until you actually give them a try.
If you are serious about getting into good shape, not just better shape, give this book a read.

Summary: TBTWholistic Fitness-A Warrior's Path of Yoga & Strength
Comment: What a labor of love and devotion for the human tribe my fellow warriors! Steve's new book does a wonderful job uniting the world of yoga and the Western strength training gym. This is NOT a book for weak minded wimps nor gym rats just wanting a new gym trick. Whether you seek a Wholistic Fitness path that is carefully designed for a three month journey or you just want to read an enlightening book that can slowly simmer in the inner workings of your mind, Total Body Transformation can provide. Steve's book has been a radiant source of inspiration along my personal journey. I highly recommend this book to anyone that is motivated to go beyond "the normal" physiological workout programs. Wholistic Fitness found in Total Body Transformation is not a passing fad diet or exercise gimmick--it's a way towards lasting well-being through high-performance fitness and health. Thank you my dear friend and garra brother Steve Ilg of Wholistic Fitness for nurturing my spirit and chi throughout life's journey the last few years...a more humble and noble warrior cannot be found. May your light of Total Body Transformation shine BRIGHT throughout this land in such need of the Wholistic path...Namaste'!

Summary: A trainers trainer
Comment: The depth of knowledge, the desire to enhance the human comdition and the sincerity Coach Steve ilg displays for helping all people re-discover their true nature and unlimited potential, is what moves me most about Total Body Transformation.
As a personal trainer and yoga instructor myself, it was important for me to integrate TBT's teachings into my personal life-style and training before choosing to pass them along to my clients.
Transforming! The awareness and balance of my personal temple (body/mind) has grown so much more strong and supple that
my tapas (buring desire) to share & assist others has taken on new meaning.
Fellow Fitness Trainers and Yogins, give your soul a gift of inspiration and incorporate the beauty and strength of TBT into your vocation. You and your students lives will be forever changed.
To my Brother and Sister on the Noble Path of Health and Fitness, use TBT for what i think and feel it is intended; to transform y(our) awareness and bring balance into y(our) daily lives through Breath, Posture and Love.
i bow to the teachings and the grace of Coach ilg's, Total Body Transformation.
Dharma Blessings.
