ALSO GET THE FIT OR FAT TARGET RECIOES TOO. GREAT BOOKS
A good, basic book that explains the role of exercise and eating in your metabolism and health. Very readable and entertaining.
It was an excellent source of basic information for the newcomer to the fitness world. The chapters were easy to understand but were in depth enough get the point across. An excellent source for someone who wants to get in shape. However, if you want a more scientific, in depth discussion, this may be a bit too simple.

It was ok!
Fat was researched in the 1970's. and the CDC doesn't have a lot of "new" news.
Never used. ie hard to give an honest review.
Excellent book
