Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description
THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER How to train for anything and everything, anywhere and everywhere The World's Fittest Book is set to become every fitness enthusiast's bible. Dubbed 'the body's complete user guide,' it will become the go-to resource for learning all you need to know about building muscle, losing fat, eating (healthy) cake, and unlocking your superhuman physical potential. Packed with workouts the author tried and tested in the pursuit of multiple world records, it's more than a book; it's the greatest training tool ever written! Designed for anyone who wants to make permanent and lasting changes to their food and fitness, it's the first book to combine the teachings, tips, and tricks of Olympic and World Champions into one, easy-to-follow resource. This book will show you how it's possible to:
  • Live below 10% body fat with the aid of chocolate and Mayan secrets
  • Add 27% more muscle mass, courtesy of tips from world heavyweight champions
  • Increase speed by 10%, thanks to gold medal-winning Olympic sprinters
  • Squat, deadlift, and bench weights you never dreamed of lifting, with the guidance of the world's strongest men
  • Improve endurance capacity by 60%, thanks to the knowledge of world champions in multi endurance-based sports
...all of which the author has achieved during the 10-year 'Fitness Pilgrimage' that has taken him around the globe. Aiming to be the most eclectic and comprehensive fitness guide ever created, The World's Fittest Book is the sum and substance of over a decade of research and the collective wisdom of some of the greatest minds and athletic bodies in history. By learning the lessons within it, readers will understand 'fitness' better than the vast majority of the population. Every chapter will have an easy-to-digest workout within it and can be read individually. But if you want to read the stories and the science behind the routines, that's there too. Until now, there hasn't been a book covering such an ambitious range of areas, catering to the casual fitness enthusiast seeking clarity and guidance in their own gym routine and kitchen habits, as well as the seasoned sportsperson who's hit a plateau and is searching for tips, tricks, and tweaks they can make to their training and diet. This book changes that and will take you on a journey to whatever level of fitness you want to find.
