5 Factor Fitness is almost, but not all, of our favorite fitness book. Pasternak has done a good job in setting a realistic and concise fitness and diet regimen. There are a number of positives to recommend good, and some of the negative we find in other books. This is a thin 182 pages, including index. Most sections have really useful content. Some other books are needlessly fluffed have decided to punt upset your gourd dipper from the last page is mercifully when reached. In BFL for Women comes to mind.
Pasternak exercise routine is very short, only 25 minutes from 30 minutes a day, in our opinion, it defines the exercise routine is very good. It is based on free weights and a weight bench. This can be done in the gym or at home with a relatively modest investment (this is a big plus for us). No gimmicks, no fads, no colorful bouncy or stretchy thingies, no thousand dollar pec-decks, etc. Just 5 minutes cardio, 10 minutes strength training, 5 minutes core, and 5 minutes of cardio. Some tidbits that ring true to us: The dropout rate in the diet (and exercise?) Programs is surprisingly high, because the rigor of the program outweighs the benefits. The author is considering the development of balanced muscle development and muscle development that fits your body type is best. He thinks treadmills are the best cardio machine.
Similar meeting you exercise regimen, Pasternak's diet recommendations are also good, realistic, and free mode: "quality protein," reduced fat, raising the glycemic index, sugar-free drinks (of course he believes in the wisdom of sugar blood to maintain stable), not to count, 1 cheat day. The overall strategy is a short but complete exercise 5 days a week, low food, improving your metabolism, and work toward increasing your rat-to-vet ratio. We really don't think you can get much better advice than this opinion.
