Slow Burn: Burn Fat Faster By Exercising Slower by Anthony Robbins, Katherine Callan, Stu Mittleman

4.0

I got a lot out of this book. It details the Low Heart Rate training program make popular by Dr Phillip Maffetone in "The Maffetone Method", but Mittleman takes this program a step further and gives practical ideas how to incorporate this program into your life. He dedicates sections to training your mind, your body, and your diet to have as much energy as you need.

The nutrition recommendations are pretty severe (no sugar at all!!) but I have little doubt that they would be effective. I'm not ready to adopt all of the proscribed maxims in my diet, but I will cut and paste various ideas to improve my diet. I got the most out of the section detailing training your body for long-distance events. I have adopted his low HR training method into my training regime and have enjoyed results so far.

I would recommend this to anyone who is frustrated with their current exercise program, injured, burned out, or wants to start losing weight.

Thanks for taking the time to read my review!
