Editor's Take
Amazon reviewers say the book is useful, easy to read, and full of effective workouts, with several praising the simple explanations and clear layout. Some reviewers also note drawbacks such as low-quality or grainy photos and, in a few cases, a layout that can feel hard to navigate.
On Goodreads, readers describe it as a solid, science-based guide to fat loss training, though opinions vary, with some comparing it to CrossFit-style programming and others liking the practical approach. On Reddit, one user mentioned that the book’s layout was hard to navigate and that some of the wording felt preachy.
Fitness review sites like Burn The Fat Blog, Breaking Muscle, and ACE Fitness describe it positively as a strong resource for metabolic resistance training and fat-loss programming. A YouTube result surfaced for the product, but no confirmed second YouTube watch URL was available, so only one video could be identified from the results.
