You also get a bonus DVD that features John`s unique abs workout and stretches.
Millions of Americans have glimpsed Basedow in his fitness infomercials, and this book marks the first time he`s committed his successful Fitness Made Simple (FMS) program to paper. The three-prong approach of diet, exercise, and nutritional supplements promises sculpted muscles. Readers will appreciate the simple, sensible eating plan, with no gimmicks or quick-fix promises, and the well-illustrated exercises that concentrate on muscle building. The potential minefield of nutritional supplements is nicely handled, too. Instead of prescribing a particular brand, Basedow discusses the five active ingredients that he has found to be helpful, emphasizing that supplements are overhyped. While he does not address the difficulty of finding regulated products, he stresses the food and exercise components over supplements, so readers can skip this section and still improve their fitness. Featuring illustrated testimonials from satisfied users of the plan ranging from teenagers to grandparents, this title is an excellent all-purpose fitness guide. (DVD not seen.)-Susan B.

If you ve ever felt lost in the sea of contradictory training and diet advice out there and you just want to know once and for all what works and what doesn t what s scientifically true and what s false when it comes to building muscle and getting ripped, then you need to read this book.
Let me ask you a question. Do any of the following claims sound familiar?
" I have bad genetics I just can t build muscle or lose fat easily. "
" You have to work your abs more to get a six-pack. "
" When doing cardio, you want your heart rate in the fat burning zone. "
" Steroids make you look great. "
" Don t eat at night if you want to lose weight. "
" You have to do cardio for 20 minutes before your body starts burning fat. "
" I m overweight because I have a slow metabolism. "
You ve probably heard one or more of these statements before, and the sad truth is lies like these have ruined many people s fitness ambitions.
Thanks to the overwhelming amount of fitness pseudo-science and lies being pushed on us every day by bogus magazines and self-styled gurus, it s becoming harder and harder to get in shape.
"Muscle Myths" was written to debunk the most commonplace and harmful gimmicks, fads, myths, and misinformation in the health and fitness industry.
Here are just some of the things you ll learn in this book:
Why you don t have to completely cut out carbs or fat, or eat weird combinations of food to lose weight.
The truth about supplements and why 99% of them are a complete waste of money (and the few that are actually scientifically proven to work).
What it actually takes to tone up and it s not doing shaping exercises (these don t exist) or doing a million reps every workout.
Why women shouldn t be training differently than men if they want the lean, toned, and sexy type of body that they see in magazines, TV shows, and movies.
The scientific secrets of getting a six-pack. Forget 6-minute gimmicks, doing endless crunches, and hours of grueling cardio it s actually pretty easy when you know what you re doing.
Training and diet methods that will completely shatter any perceived genetic barriers that you think are holding you back from building muscle or losing weight.
The proper way to stretch so you don t sap your strength and risk injury. (Most people do this wrong and suffer the consequences without even realizing it.)
And much more.
This book will save you the money, time, and frustration of falling into the traps of misleading diet plans and products, and teach you how to finally start seeing real results with your diet and exercise.
