4.0 out of 5 stars Simply fit: Simple, and will get you fit., September 6, 2010
This review is from: Radu's Simply Fit: Enjoy the Workout of Your Life With America's Leading Fitness Coach (Hardcover)
This is a no frills book that contains a pretty good set of training routines that will work for most physically able people. It follows a very traditional "gymnastic" approach, where isometric exercises are combined with light weight work. This makes it possible to go trough the whole set of training sessions with minimal equipment.

I do like the structure of the training sessions, where there is clear instruction about the warm up, the core session and the cooldown/stretch.

The one drawback about the book is that there are not enough images. Complex exercises are accompanied by a hand drawn graphic that depicts the base start/end of a position, but I would have really liked for all the exercises to have some graphic explanation. I have done a bit of circuit training in the past, so it was not hard for me to pick up from the written cues what a particular exercise or stretch looked like, but I can see how a complete novice may struggle to get the proper position.

In this day and age of many different "new" styles, this book demonstrates that a classic workout is the way to go.
