 All the information, none of the hype
By John
This is a great fitness book. It was written by Navy doctors working for Special Warfare teams (SEALS). The book is thick because it is actually two books in one: the SEAL fitness book + the nutrition book. What I found in the book was great scientific info that a layperson may understand, without all the hype and fluff and self-promotion you find in most fitness books. If you want to know how to lift weights, for example, what the % or RMI is, oxygen uptake, and heart rate and aerobic guidelines, as well as BMI inforamation, and selective information on biking, swimming, lifting, plyometrics, etc., get this book. This book is better than closely all the other fitness books I have seen in that it is closely 100% science, and 0 % hype. Don’t let the “SEAL” thing scare you off, either: this book is for everyone.
