Every person's body is unique-and every person who wants to look and feel their best needs to consider their individual goals, needs, and preferences. That's why John Abdo, host and exercise producer of the syndicated TV show TN-2000, created Body Engineering. This revolutionary book teaches you how to design an exercise and nutrition plan that suites your specific body type and lifestyle. With four specialized approaches to weight loss, weight gain, health maintenance, and sports performance, this program will help every individual (and every body type) to:
realistically assess individual needs.
use self-tests to measure strength and endurance.
customize a specific health and fitness 'template'
devise a personalized eating plan.
use supplements to gain energy and improve overall health.
assimilate the changes into everyday life.
John Abdo is the host and coproducer of TN-2000, a 30-minute television program that reaches nearly 50 million homes and is the most successful fitness show of its kind. TV Guide called it 'the most advanced fitness program on television today.' Mr. Abdo has trained world-class athletes, Olympic gold-medal speed skater Bonnie Blair, and three-time world power lifting champion Craig Tokarski. Kenneth A. Dachman, Ph.D., received his doctorate in medical psychology from Union Institute in Ohio. He is the author of numerous books on health and fitness.
