The twelve-week Lean Look program requires no fancy equipment, takes thirty minutes a day, six days a week, and can easily be done at home. Goldberg shows how to add foods to your diet that promote muscle development, cut back on foods that encourage fat storage, time your meals for optimal nutrition, and exercise to burn fat. With over 100 photographs, a Lean Look journal, body-fat tables, and a four-week meal plan, The Lean Look is a straightforward guide to getting the sculpted, athletic body you've always wanted.

Download or read book A Comparison of Three Models of Elliptical Trainer written by and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 19 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Elliptical trainers provide strenuous exercise for large muscle groups with less ground force reaction than running. The reduced ground force makes an elliptical trainer bout a potential alternative to the 1.5-mi run in the U.S. Navy Physical Readiness Test (PRT). This alternative could reduce the risks associated with testing, particularly for individuals who otherwise might receive a medical waiver for that portion of the PRT. Previous investigations established the feasibility of elliptical trainer testing for Life Fitness CT 9500HR machines. The present investigation examined two additional machines, Precor EFX 556 and Nautilus E916, because Lifestyle Fitness machines are not available at all potential test sites. The Lifestyle Fitness investigations indicated that calorie reports from the elliptical trainers predicted 1.5-mi run time after allowing for a positive bias in the reports. An algorithm to convert elliptical trainer performance to equivalent run time was developed. The present investigation compared Precor and Nautilus machines to the Lifestyle Fitness machine. These machines provide biased estimates of calorie expenditure. The size of the bias was the only difference between machines. The test algorithm developed for the Life Fitness machine should accurately convert Nautilus and Precor calorie reports to run times after adjusting for bias differences.
