This is an excellent reference book for diet, exercise and if you're dedicated a great way to get the ball rolling on your own personal boot camp. Packed with interesting information it includes different sections of the forces exercise regimes and how to take proper care of your body. I found this to be a valuable resource for physcial fitness.
