Book Description
From an elite Special Operations physical trainer, an ingeniously simple, rapid-results, do-anywhere program for getting into amazing shape For men and women of all athletic abilities! As the demand for Special Operations military forces has grown over the last decade, elite trainer Mark Lauren has been at the front lines of preparing nearly one thousand soldiers, getting them lean and strong in record time. Now, for regular Joes and Janes, he shares the secret to his amazingly effective regimen—simple exercises that require nothing more than the resistance of your own bodyweight to help you reach the pinnacle of fitness and look better than ever before. Armed with Mark Lauren’s motivation techniques, expert training, and nutrition advice, you’ll see rapid results by working out just thirty minutes a day, four times a week—whether in your living room, yard, garage, hotel room, or office. Lauren’s exercises build more metabolism-enhancing muscle than weightlifting, burn more fat than aerobics, and are safer than both, since bodyweight exercises develop balance and stability and therefore help prevent injuries. Choose your workout level—Basic, 1st Class, Master Class,and Chief Class—and get started, following the clear instructions for 125 exercises that work every muscle from your neck to your ankles. Forget about gym memberships, free weights, and infomercial contraptions. They are all poor substitutes for the world’s most advanced fitness machine, the one thing you are never without: your own body.

Guide to Bodyweight Strength Training - A calculative approach to bodyweight strength training is your guide to building strength and muscle with bodyweight training only. Don't have time to go to the gym? Great! You can get the same results by working with your bodyweight. Don’t get me wrong. Working out is great but it should not consume your life. It should enhance it in every aspect: give you more energy and keep you healthy in the long run. Save the time you spend going to the gym and use that extra time to do other meaningful things. With this book I want to give you my best advice on how to get fit at home with minimal equipment and use of time. Instead of just giving you training advice only, I will equip you with: • A training tool which you can use to plan, log and track your workouts. • A meal planning tool that helps you to plan ahead some basic meals. • And also a weight tracking tool to track your bodyweight. This book does not contain anything groundbreaking that will get you in shape by working out just 5 minutes a day or other miracle cures. This is straight up honest talk about what it takes to make progress with training principles based on facts and numbers. You will also receive some insights on how bodyweight exercises compare against similar barbell exercises and get an estimation on the actual load being lifted for bodyweight movement such as single leg squats, various push-ups and pullups.The training programs and bodyweight training progressions will work for beginners and intermediates and get you far. I will present bodyweight strength training programs based on well known workout splits that have stood the test of time and guides to all exercise progressions. I will give you a tool that includes these programs, allows you to track and plan your workouts for future success.The tool will also include youtube video examples on each exercise. In order to cover all 100+ exercises I will not present any of the exercises in this book in picture format. With video examples you will have a better chance getting the exercise form correct right away. You will also get the exercise cheat sheet which has all the exercises listed with video links. You will need some basic equipment such as a pullup bar, suspension trainers or gymnastics rings. But I will also present alternatives if you don’t have some of the equipment available and also give you instructions on what household items you can use for exercise. Such as the kitchen counter, sturdy chairs and a dining table will get you going. And if you wish you can do weighted bodyweight exercises by simply using a weighted backpack.
