Good, but somewhat unrealistic
First off, this book is great for anyone who's sick of such garbage as the Atkins or South Beach Diets. Although it is more of a man's "diet" due to its rigorous exercise program, it is universal for the most part. The diet itself is somewhat unrealistic seeing as most Americans cannot eat Zinczenko's almonds and bizarre snacks every couple of hours and eat the prescribed foods when eating out or on the go. For example, fast food is terrible, but it is nonetheless an unfortunate reality for many time-pressed Americans - even those with 6 pack abs.
The book earns its keep and 4 star rating largely upon its helpful photos, explanations of training regimens, and lastly for its actual "diet" information. Recommended only if this is to be a lifestyle choice for those serious about fitness, not merely a fad diet that you will abandon after merely losing 5 or 10 lbs.
