Summary: Right On Target
Comment: I am a 44 yr old woman, and I went through the 12-week plan in Volume I twice, and then bought Volume II. Still trying to get my husband to try it! The ONLY reason that I did not give it 5 stars was because the new book is not spiral bound like the first volume. Use it at the gym, but where do you keep your pen? I love both books; they got me into a consistent workout routine. The workouts are definitely progressive (they get a little tougher and they vary each week) as they should to keep you improving.
This is not an all-encompassing health and well-being book (as it sounds some other reviewers were looking for)it is a simple straight-forward workout book. Follow it exactly, as you would a trainer standing there coaching you - don't cut corners! There is no math to figure, no advance planning, no complicated formulas. JUST DO IT! And then record your progress and watch yourself become sculpted and strong! Then keep the book, because in the future you will want to go back and select a weeks-worth of workouts to repeat.

Summary: Jimmy does it again!!!
Comment: I was lucky enough to have Jimmy Orvis as my personal trainer for 2 years. He was working on this book at that time. With him as my trainer I lost 78lbs. and Finally was in the best shape of my life.
Sadly Jim moved away or as I like to say "broke up with me!!!!" But I have been able to maintain my weight loss with this new book.I find it is easy to use even if I don't have Jim pushing me (and believe me somedays he ran me ragged). I am following the 12 weeks and I really enjoy the tips and nutrional info. (Who knows what the previous reviewer is reading, this book is far from complicated.)
Way to go Jim....when are ya moving back???

Summary: Complicated and incomplete
Comment: This book is way too complicated to figure out. Half the workouts have way too much volume and are to hard for the average person to perform. After I read it I walked away not feeling like I new anything about nutrition or how to mentally attack the workout. Its incomplete. In all fairness there are certain workouts that could help some people but not all people. Its a pass......
