At some point, everyone stops dieting. The Lean Muscle Diet solves the sustainability problem while offering immediate results. It’s simple: act as if you already have the body you want. If a reader is, say, a 220-pound man who wants to become a muscular 180-pounder, he then uses The Lean Muscle Diet's formula to eat and train to sustain a 180-pound body. The transformation begins immediately, and the results last for life. Lou Schuler, who has sold more than one million copies of his fitness books worldwide, and Alan Aragon, nutrition advisor to Men's Health, have created an eating and "metabolically expensive" exercise plan designed to melt fat while building muscle. The best part? The plan allows readers to eat their favorite foods, no matter how decadent. With full support from Men's Health, The Lean Muscle Diet delivers a simple--and simply sustainable--body transformation plan anyone can use.

Over fifty? Too much bodyfat? Too little fitness? That described Chris Zaremba about a decade ago. Warnings from two doctors made him change his ways, and five years later, he had become one of the fittest guys around at his age, winning trophies for his fitness condition. In this book, he tells how he made the substantial changes in his life to accomplish this and what he has gone on to do to spread the word of fitness-up and fatness-down to others over 50. He also shows how you can make a similar transformation; he knows how difficult but important it is to give this a priority when you never have succeeded before. It can be made manageable, sustainable and, yes, enjoyable too. Most importantly, it is never too late to for you to start. Read his strategies, tips and techniques and follow the full 'Fat to Fit at Fifty' course, included in the book. It can help you add years to your life - and life to those years!
