I'm 36 and was getting marginal results with my self-defined workout schedule. I am extremely happy with the results I'm getting from following the plan. The detailed workouts are a real plus. They help keep you focused in the gym and really push you to the next level. I'm on week 8 of Level 3 and have toned up considerably without really watching what I eat. I'm recommending this book to all my friends.
Great Book!

I am starting this program on January 1, 2001 so I can not attest to its results. I can say that this book is excellent in detail. Every single workout is broken down for you. There is also a place to write your sets and reps etc. It is divided into three parts (beginning, inter., adv.,) It is a 28 week program that I am sure will bring outstanding results. It is a lot of work, for instance...by the time you have made it to the advanced portion (the last 16 weeks) you will be working out 6 days a week. Some may think that is too much but hey... how bad do you want an awesome body? If you want one bad then I suggest you check out this book. Excellent prescription of excercises for those of us with "pear shapes" or larger lower bodies. I can't wait to get started.
It's work, but it works!

Im a 42-year-old "pear"-shaped woman who's been doing this program for 7 weeks now. I've lost a dress size and my hipbones have reappeared. I've kind of watched what I've eaten, but I haven't missed any meals. I think the information is valuable, and I like how it's presented. Detailed routines are given for every workout. The routines are varied and customized to all levels of fitness (starting with a beginner's program that fitter people skip). I like that complete exercise descriptions are in a separate chapter, listed alphabetically for easy reference. I've also learned several new exercises. I'm ordering a second copy because the first one had a water bottle dumped on it. I think this is a great book.
You'll get results

I couldn't be happier with the results I am getting from this book. I have a "stubborn Pear shape" & had only been happy with my workouts when I cut my eating way back. I am only 1/3 of the way through this program and my muscle tone has dramatically changed & my clothes have never been baggier. By the time I finish, I'll be ready for a tropical vacation, no problem!
