to become really fit the military way

If you like to see how to get fit the military way this is a very great book. This one is twards the sas forces. Contrary to the US forces which emphasises a lot of upper body strenght you see here the total approach. SAS troopers need to marsh endlessly. (read about their gruelling selection course). This books tells how to get fit, using circuit training, weight programms (not used for the beach boys who just wants to look pumped up, but this program is just to be prepared for the rigours of combat). More is told to train for endurance by running, swimming, cycling and of course the famous endurance marches. At the end a total programme is given for the beginner, intermediate and the advanced. This great book is finished with telling you more about nutrition (I said nutrition NOT pills for those beach bubbles) and mental approaches. I really recommend this book together with Andrew Wheales fighting fit (which gives sas, paratrooper and royal commando programmes) and Steward Smith's the complete guide to navy seal fitness.

With those 3 books you cannot go wrong and be the fittest and mental (because of this training) toughest person.

So buy these 3 and be FIT and combat ready.

Who dares, wins!

This book was the first military fitness program that I followed. The results were amazing, in 8 weeks I went from 245lbs down to 205lbs and never looked back. I am now addicted to military fitness programs (books) and swear by them. This book is one of the best and so are the SAS. The program is well rounded with running, swimming, and weight training/calisthenics. There is even a section on self defense which is very handy. The professional program is a killer and I would suggest tackling the less intense programs first. If getting physically fit is your goal then you will have a hard time finding a better book! In fact the only thing tougher than this book would be to actually enlist in the SAS! Being a fitness writer myself (Backyard Sports for Kids), I can fully appreciate a book like this one and my hat goes off to John Wiseman on an excellent piece of work!
