Outstanding Fitness Book

I have read hundreds of fitness books, attended hundreds of exercise gurus sessions, however, this book by Mario Lopez finally has given me the correct knowledge on how to stay fit for life. Through weight lifting, cardio, yoga, boxing, running, eating properly, I have noticed that my body has changed and I feel younger than ever before. I am 57 years-old, and my Doctor has recently told me that I have a body of a 40 year-old! My students could not believe that I actually have muscles! Thanks for the advice, Mario. I suggest that everyone who wants to stay in shape, to get this book. You will NOT be disappointed!

Excellent Book on Exercise and Nutrition

This book is different from all the many other books on fitness. This book is written by a very talented celebrity who indeed achieved a well recognized fitness level and knows how to teach others how to achieve the same. The ability to communicate easily with others was clear from the very simple and easy language his book was written in and from the very useful tips he gave. Being into the sports of body building, I could confirm that Mario Lopez is giving the useful exercises and tips any person would need to know when exercising at the gym. However he explored many other areas that I didn't realize before they had so much effect on body building, such as playing regularly other sports like Boxing or dancing too in addition to your body building workout. The exercises handed in this book are thoroughly explained with pictures too detailing the steps of every exercise. The meal plans that were given were very detailed, in addition to the many useful nutrition tips that were given by Mario. However, I felt that people who have good experience in body building won't benefit much from the exercises given in this book as much as how the beginners would. But these experienced body builders would certainly benefit from the many health and nutrition tips given, because they are not widely-known facts. This book is useful for everyone interested in Fitness, especially those that do not have much body building experience and need to have an easy guide for their fitness program.

A Must Have!

The book is to the point, easy to understand. I love it since I got this book I have lost 14lbs. Still going. :-)

Mario Tells All

Okay, we've all seen Mario Tango and Disco. There's no doubt that as talented a dancer as he is, he is in serious physical condition. This book is stuffed with photos which are very helpful when it comes to proper form during exercise but the real meat of this book is the advice he imparts concerning sleep, eating and using common sense in general. I like the "Hey Mario" exclamation points where a question is asked and answered and I especially love the recipes. Mario proves that you can still enjoy food without the extra fat. Let's face it. This book isn't going to make many of us look like Mario but it can put readers on the path to good health. GO MARIO!
