Posted in: Exercise, Free Ebooks, Weight Loss    |    Comments Off     

I found another free e-book for you called, “The Trouble Spot Tune-Up - A 10 Minute Workout For Your Most Stubborn Areas,” by Joey Atlas.

Joey was the “fat kid” in school, and that motivated him to get fit and healthy later on in life — he now has a Masters Degree in Exercise Physiology! He’s the author of The Ultimate Leg, Butt, Hip and Thigh Makeover (see image on the right).

The Trouble Spot Tune-Up is a 10 minute home exercise routine for women that can be repeated 2 to 3 times to give you a 20 to 30 minute workout. It’s a small sample of the exercises found in The Ultimate Leg, Butt, Hip and Thigh Makeover.

He recently published a new paper in the International Journal of Obesity that throws a wrench in works of the “3500 calories to lose a pound” idea.

When it comes to cardio workouts, interval training is one of the best ways to get the most out of your workout. But have you ever tried to do an interval training workout that you printed out from a website? Pretty near impossible to do, unless you have a photographic memory.
