Book Reviews of Five Factor Fitness
Book Review: Two thumbs up!
Summary: 5 Stars
I like this book! The exercises will get you into top shape, whether sedentary or fit (it took a while for me to break out of the "more exercise, more fit" paradigm) - and the eating guidelines will also improve your dietary habits, from junk food addicts to health food nuts. I haven't struggled with weight but have found maintaining a healthy, fit lifestyle over the long term very challenging. He doesn't bombard you with too much information and also doesn't come off as being overly-strict. It results in you making informed and reasonable decisions that become intuitive and instinctual over time. I now live by his guidelines, abide by the no flour gospel and feel great!Book Review: It really works!!!

I have tried billions of diet plans. 12 months ago I weighed nearly 200 pounds. I picked up this book at a local library one day, sat down and read it, as I have read plenty of diet books, and once I put it down after finishing it I started my diet. The first thing I did was go to the pantry and ate a donut! I started on the cheat day. Then the next day I started with the 25 minute workouts and the eating plan. In ten months I lost 66 pounds and I'm still losing. Without the cheat day I don't think this would have worked for me. I love to eat, and I love my junk food, and my cheat days allow me to eat just that, while fitting into a size 6 for the first time in my life!!Book Review: Five Factor Fitness brings real results!
Summary: 5 Stars
I've been following the program for about 1 week now, including following some of the recipies in the book and in 1 week i've lost 5lbs, 2 inches on my waist and 4 1/2 inches on my hips, results I have not been able to reach over the past 6 months despite taking aerobic classes regularly. The plan is very easy to follow, and modify for eating out. I have been adding 10-20 minutes on the tail end of the workout on the treadmill walking at a steep incline as Harley recommends vs. running. Best of all, I feel stronger and healthier. I'm looking forward to using this program for a long time to come.Book Review: Great book for anyone!
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is easy to read, entertaining, and intelligent. Mr Pasternak is definitely an 'outside the box' thinker and his ideas are well researched and his programs work. I'm a Personal Trainer who has fallen in love with this program and am using it to help my clients reach their goals faster without the frustration of a normal 'diet' plan. Whether you're trying to put on muscle, lose fat, or just get that Hollywood body, this simple program will help you get there!Book Review: Recommended by Certified Personal Trainer

Finally, a book that is for real life! It was very refreshing to read about the right way to get into shape! No fads or "quick fixes" his program is what are bodies were designed to do - move (exercise) and eat balanced, healthy meals without going overboard.
I would recommend this book to anyone who is seriously about getting in shape and STAYING is shape.
