I don’t normally review Madison, but who could resist the huge headline “A better body in 4 weeks - it’s easy and it works”? Does it live up to it’s promise, and make it worth parting with your $7.95? Let’s take a look.
Pg 219: Introducing the Best Body Challenge - Part 1
10 huge pages of fitness, encompassing cardio, strength training, flexibility and nutrition - and it’s great! Sensible information, user friendly pictures (usually the one thing missing from otherwise excellent articles), and ways to overload the intensity. This is the kind of thing you could really use if you can’t afford a personal trainer, or you’re not interested in joining a gym.
There’s nothing here for me to criticise, so instead I’m going to pick out my favorite elements:
Balanced approach to resistance training - every muscle gets a workout.
Suggests rest days, stretching, and ways of working exercise into your life to make it all easier to achieve.
In the flexibility section, it stresses doing what you can without forcing things. Perfect!
The nutritional plan stresses eating a healthy breakfast, trying to detox your system in a smart way (and you probably know how I feel about detoxes by now), and has some excellent choices for snacks.
I’ll be really interested to see the subsequent month’s workouts, but this is the best article I’ve seen so far. And consequently, ***** - go out and buy it now!
