Powersculpt for Men: The Complete Body Sculpting & Weight Training Workout Using the Exercise Ball [With DVD]

This was my first exercise book, which got me started on CORE fitness. Since then I have gone on to Pilates and other forms of exercise, joined Gold's Gym and work with a personal trainer 2x weekly. But, Paul Frediani's book is what started my quest to 'get fit'! The DVD is great. I don't know what the person with the review regarding Paul Frediani not showing any emotion was about, but I don't think his intentions were to win any American Idol awards! This is not 'entertainment', this is serious instruction and frankly, I think Frediani does a great job, not rushing any of the steps. I passed my book onto a friend, so I'm getting another one. If you would like to get into Pilates, pick up 'Pilates for Men', by Daniel Lyons, Jr. Very well illustrated, he takes you from 'beginner', through 'intermediate', onto 'advanced'.

Found a very resourceful book. I am a woman and thought the exercises very do able for women also.

I was looking for a exercise book that would combine my requirements for balance, flexibility and strength.Powersculpt for men fits the bill! As a rear leg above amputee I needed the challenge that a program like powersculpt provides. I have started with the simplest exercises and they provide penty of challenge for me but I am seeing improvements daily. The structure of the exercises are from beginner to advanced so it meets the needs of everyone. You can follow their structured dvd program or create your own. Some of the exercises actually involve messaging your body with the ball which provides the benefits of that type of therapy.Get on the ball and have some fun! Dave

This book is absolutely amazing . It is a work of master done by a person who understand the way bodies should be and look. This book tokes fitness in depht by incorporating one of the most vital componenet of training: CORE. Unlike others books that focus on some category of people, this book is written for everyone, regardless of one's fitness level. As an Elite Plus Trainer at Equinox wit over six years of experience in fitness, i recommend this book to anyone who needs to develop and sculpt a dream body.
