full of good ideas

Though the word Precor is used throughout this text, the ideas are relevant to other manufacturers equipment. I have used the book's suggestions on LifeFitness Equipment and have reduced my times. The use of an elliptical trainer as suggested has also been most beneficial. The book's workouts help reduce the inhert boredom of a treadmill run. For ideas on interesting workouts with treadmills this book is a must

A beneficial book...full of solid information and guidance!

I found this book to be ideal for my whole family. From my father and mother who will appreciate the stretching, walking and nutrition chapters, to myself who likes to sprint and run, the book has something for everyone. Though I have never run a marathon (though I have run a 1/2 marathon), if I do, I will use this book. I use the treadmill for interval training and have already seen improvements in my speed and endurance.
