If only I had known…
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
It was backwards of me to wait five years, after getting The Body Sculpting Bible for Abs, before also getting The Body Sculpting Bible for Women, Revised Edition: The Way to Physical Perfection! Even though following the exercises in the ab sculpting book works amazingly well, if I had also known the information given in the body sculpting book along with it, I would have maximized the potential results possible for my abs!
Jame Villepigue explains in detail what each ab exercise does; plus, he provides helpful tips to follow. The ab workout book does not give anywhere near as much vital overall information about exercise in general as does his body sculpting book. Now that I have this added information to go with my ab book, I’m already starting to see and feel the difference its making in only six weeks into doing the workouts compared to how I was doing my routines five years ago with less understanding about what and why I was doing things the way I did.
It’s true that there are exercises which involve exercise equipment normally found only in a gym, but there is plenty of information in these books to make great use of the routines with what you do have available to use. For example, doing the High Chair Scissors exercises can be done if you have a tree nearby with a couple of branches available to rest your arms on (placing folded towels underneath to cushion the pressure).
The most useful equipment to achieve the best results are fortunately also the least expensive. Having only an exercise ball, floor mat, and weights are enough to get you great results. So don’t let the lack of expensive equipment available have you thinking that these ‘sculpting’ books are not worth the money.
Understanding why and how important it is to have ‘periodization training’ (i.e., ‘muscle confusion’) incorporated into workout plans can make all the difference in the world, especially if you’re the kind of person who needs to know about the details behind everything you do as much as possible in order to stay motivated.
Disappointing

There are some good exercises in this book. However, if you have not done ab exercises regularly and you are looking for a program to get you started (especially if you are working out at home!), this book is not for you. Although the writer does address readers with weak abs, he does not provide an adequate beginner’s program, which would prepare you for the more difficult moves. Furthermore, you need some serious equipment if you want to follow this “14-day ab sculpting workout” (which is, in fact, a 14-WEEK workout, broken into 2-week-sections”).
If you already have pretty strong and toned abdominals and are getting bored with your routine, AND have access to an ‘ab high chair’ and a cable station, along with the obligatory Swiss ball, you might find some challenging exercises in the “Body Bible for Abs”.
Otherwise, keep browsing for a better book.

Such a great workout book that I need to buy it again. My 20 year old daughter stole it from me and took it back to college with her. A great book to bring to the health club with you as well.
Very informative and useful book
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
I can actually say this book taught me several workout routines and abdominal exercises that up until now I did not know existed. There are warm up exercises for the abs, medicine ball exercises for the abs, bench exercises for the abs, etc. The book is a very comprehensive manual, it has everything for all fitness level. If you are serious about getting your abs in shape this is a must have book
The Body Sculpting Bible for Abs: Womens Edition, Deluxe Edition: The Way to Physical Perfection –
the spinning class is hardcore….. your pushing 600 calories burned with that one
15 minutes of lifting weight only burns about 50 calories but your increasing your muscle mass which raises your metabolism so you burn more calories at rest
20 minutes jogging depending how fast you go burns anywhere from 150-300 calories, the dance dvd roughly the same. its isometric exercise so it's not all cardio, some of it builds muscle
20 minutes on an elliptical again, depending on the resistance and how fast you go, would burn 200-400 calories
based on your height and weight and age and gender,your metabolic rate is about 1500 calories burned per day. thats without doing ANYTHING. with your activity level you would need to exceed 2600 calories to gain any weight, and 2200 to lose 1 pound per week
