Super Bodies In 12 Weeks (eBook)

Written by Frank and Christine Zane for both men and women, this is a twelve week programme built on being realistic about what you have to work with.

It opens by assessing your physical potential, and it is refreshingly plain about it. You cannot change your bone structure but you can change the development and shape of the muscles. Wide hips cannot be narrowed, but they can be made to appear smaller by building the deltoids and upper back. Both men and women should aim for well proportioned bodies with no one part built at the expense of another.

There is a direct answer to the fear that stopped a lot of women training at the time: weight training does not make a woman as muscular as a man, and it will take body fat off and tone selected areas in a relatively short time. There is also a message to teenagers, on the early teens being a good time to start, as Frank did at 14.

Their advice on tracking it: photographs at different points in the programme are far more useful than the scale or the tape measure.
