About The Slow Burn Fitness Revolution: The Slow Motion
Product Description Join the Slow Burn Fitness Revolution! In The Slow Burn Fitness Revolution, authors of the three-million-copy bestseller Protein Power team up with leading fitness expert Fred Hahn to revolutionize the way America gets strong, lean, and healthy. The Slow Burn Fitness Revolution lays out the accumulating body of scientific evidence that shows the spend-hours-in-the-gym approach to exercise is over. The Slow Burn exercise routine gives great results in just 30 minutes a week. With Slow Burn, you will: *Get strong fast *Increase bone density and ward off osteoporosis *Improve cardiovascular health *Enhance flexibility *Say goodbye to lower back pain *Increase your metabolism, and *Make your body a powerful fat-burning machine Slow Burn promises a leaner, fitter, stronger you with a realistic workout that lets you have a great body and a life! From Publishers Weekly Personal trainer Hahn and his physician co-writers, who previously authored the bestselling Protein Power, purport to have discovered the secret to strengthening heart and bones, enhancing flexibility, burning fat and improving athletic performance. This "revolutionary method of strength training that far exceeds the benefits of almost any other kind of exercise" is the Slow Burn-a "tough but short" workout consisting of measured lifting of heavy weights to the point of complete muscle exhaustion. For those with access to gym equipment, the weight should be "so heavy that for the first second or two you feel like you won't be able to budge it" (readers sans gym memberships work with their body weight and a few small free weights). Before describing any Slow Burn exercises, however, the authors spend 70-odd pages trying to debunk most common assumptions regarding exercise and diet. Not all exercise is beneficial, they argue, and some exercise can be downright harmful (jogging, the authors insist, causes, "bad knees, damaged hips, and weak backs"). Similarly, the old dictate "eat less, exercise more" is not the simple weight loss solution it seems, and the book provides all sorts of evidence to explain why (the pages are liberally sprinkled with footnotes and scientific terminology).This book seems more like a good argument for strength training than it does a full-blown revolution, but the exercises are easy to follow and should improve fitness when practiced appropriately.

From Library Journal Fitness trainer Hahn joins with two doctors to help readers build muscles and burn calories by slowing down the weight-lifting workout. Copyright 2002 Reed Business Information, Inc. Review “I've always enjoyed sports and athletic activities... then "Life" happened. My back hurt, my knees creaked, and an extra 15 or so pounds mysteriously appeared. And try as I might, I couldn't find enough time to exercise it all away. Then I tried Slow Burn. Within a few workouts I realized that my back had stopped aching (and it had been aching for a long time) and my knees stopped hurting. When I played with my son, I could pick him up and roughhouse with him with greater ease. Everyday activities became much easier. And perhaps best of all, I am absolutely crushing the golf ball!! Maybe I could have accomplished this with a three-times-a-week gym routine, but this all came about with 30 minutes a week – sometimes less! I can't say enough about what Slow Burn has done to help me regain my lost strength, health, fitness, and even a little youth. You should try it too!” --Dr. Max Gomez, New York News Channel 4 medical reporter “As a professional singer, dancer, and actress, keeping my body strong and resistant to injury is absolutely essential. Since using Slow Burn, it feels as if I’ve turned back the clock a decade and become almost impervious to damage. It’s wonderful to feel as if I’m adding years to my life and career exercising a mere 30 minutes a week!” --Sandy Duncan From the Inside Flap w Burn Fitn
