5.0 out of 5 stars Easy to use and has great tips, February 4, 2011
By 
Mon (Houston, TX United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Jonny Bowden's Shape Up Workbook: Eight Weeks to Diet and Fitness Success with Recipes, Tips, and More (Paperback)
I purchased his book Shape Up and got the workbook to go with it. At first I thought I'd wasted money on this workbook because it follows the book. I figured I could have just recorded the tasks in a notebook and didn't really need this workbook to go along with it. Well you could do that but this workbook does make it much easier to keep track of everything. I didn't always have the Shape Up book handy to refer to and this workbook has everything in it so you can take it with you without having to take the Shape Up book. I would recommend reading the entire Shape Up book and then using this workbook with it.
Here are the sections in this workbook:
-Getting Started - listing the things you like about your body, the things you don't, things you want to work on, etc.
-Exercises. Shows the various types of exercises you can do and how to do them.
-To Do List
-Self-Evaluation
-Food and Menu Ideas (this section was great because he breaks foods down into the "A", "B", & "C" lists and lists the types of foods that fall into each category and then provides sample menus and some recipes)
-Weeks 1-8. These pages allow you to record your goals for a day, food record, exercises for that day and has end-of-the-day questions. At the end of some of the weeks, he has some useful tips such as how to cut back on sugar, top 10 ways to jump start weight loss, etc.

I've read several of Jonny Bowden's books and get his newsletter and really believe what he teaches. His push is more towards eating healthier foods and exercising as a way of life. In this book, he encourages you to slowly start incorporating more "A" list foods into your diet while limiting some of the other ones and give you a place to record it daily so you can see just what is going into your body.
