Stay Fit (And Hot) For Life (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780943283081)

Inspired by champion bodybuilder and filmdom s quintessential Hercules--STEVE REEVES--this compact but revolutionary philosophical primer prepares anyone at any age to properly practice practical principles of total fitness, diet, nutrition and weight training to their utmost benefit for health, longevity and youthful vitality. It pays special tribute, carrying on the torch passed on by Reeves, by forcefully raising its impassioned voice against unnatural, steroidal bodybuilding. It confronts the latter-day fitness fads, frauds and gurus from Perricone to Dr. Phil by imparting proven precepts of natural fitness without worthless resort to infomerical-promoted contraptions(like Bowflex)or synthetic supplements.
