Aus dem Klappentext

Get in shape with a streamlined fitness program that offers everything from Pilates and yoga to stability ball techniques.

Twenty-first-century fitness goes far beyond pumping iron. Smart, body-conscious training demands agility, flexibility, and intelligence as well as strength. Top national fitness instructor Jon Giswold has years of experience molding men's bodies of all types into their ideal. In Beyond Basic Training, he translates what he's learned into simple and straightforward regimens that unlock the secrets to effective workouts.

Synthesizing core training with new fitness trends and research, Giswold encourages exercisers to define goals and presents a menu of choices that are easy to accomplish in the gym, at home, or outdoors. Every routine is offered at three levels---for the novice, the minimalist, and the exerciser who demands total body conditioning---and can be mixed and matched throughout one training session or through a course of conditioning.

Beyond Basic Training is dynamically illustrated with striking photographs demonstrating every move and position, and is an essential resource for men who want to kick up their workouts to a higher level and see dramatic and permanent results.
