Ok we are now getting lot’s of e-mails on what is this new 7 Minute Muscle written by Jon Benson and the best way to let you know is through Sarah’s review.
We got our hands on a copy from Jon yesterday and Sarah has already devoured it and is going to start using it to train me soon as we finish the Combat the Fat challenge.
Sarah on 7 Minute Muscle …
7MM for short. And that’s what this is about. Short. Save time. Train fast and furious and get on with other things.
Well, fast and furious, not quite. When you buy the 7MM e-book, the download page also gives you 6 videos showing you how to do the training involved. It’s not fast per se; just quick.
OK, let me explain that.
You train at a controlled speed and with good form, as always.
The time factor comes in the rest periods. That’s what’s fast.
You need … the e-book (and the videos help too), a stop watch, and a place to train. You can do this at your local gym, but make sure you wear a head set and the stop watch and keep your eyes to yourself, you don’t want anyone interrupting you! Or you can do it at home, depending on your preferences.
The 7 Minute Muscle e-book is jammed full of scientific research; but don’t worry, you know Jon Benson, he has to throw in a personal comment or ten, and it’s really an easy read.
You do need to be concentrated though, and I recommend taking a few notes along the way so you can go back and review certain passages.
Oh, there’s no index or chapters, so unless you take those notes, you may end up reading the whole thing one more time … actually, I will anyway. There’s so much information in those 83 pages, that one read won’t be enough to assimilate it all.
I mean, words like psychophysiology … I’d never heard of that before! Nor did I know the brain had so many waves … alpha, beta, delta, theta … sure, all letters in the Greek alphabet so the words are familiar enough, but to think they’re all in your brain – and more to the point, how you can control them to get an optimal workout and great body faster than by just going to the gym to pump some weights and chat with the other members! Awesome.
I love Jon’s work, that’s no secret. From Moving Beyond Cardio to Every Other Day Diet and Fit Over 40, I’ve read every word he’s put in there, as well as the Scaling The World series, and I looked at the MPower series as well.
Doesn’t it make sense to listen to a guy who’s been there (overweight, he even admits to obese) and is now where he is? Wouldn’t you think he knows what he’s talking about? I do, and I have already used EODD – actually I still do – and Beyond Cardio; and I admit I was waiting for him to come out with a muscle book to tie it all together. This is it. 7MM is out.
You know we’re still doing the Combat The Fat challenge … in fact we have 5 weeks left of that. We will then take a week off, to let our muscles and brains rest. And then? Well, it’s a no-brainer: 7MM
(Hope we can count on your votes for the Combat the Fat challenge when the time comes )
Who doesn’t have 7, 14 or 21 minutes a day to give to their bodies to keep them in optimum shape, healthy and ready for a long life? If one day you can’t get the 21 minutes, at least do 14. It’s less than a quarter of an hour!
Come on ladies, potatoes don’t boil that fast, you can get the workout done while they cook! See? Multitask. And the guys, unless you do the cooking, set the self-watering thingy on the lawn for 15 minutes and do your workout in the mean time. Yes, men can multi-task too, I just showed you how J
Basic lesson here: you owe it to yourselves to at the very least check this book out, and I cannot see anyone not being thrilled by it.
7 Minute Muscle. 7MM. I’ve printed my copy and it’s coming with me for the weekend! I’ll just read it on the screen today first, with notes taken.
Oh by the way, if you think it’s all about weights and exercises? Not really; it’s very much a mind thing; mind over matter. Your mind over your body. With great results once you grasp it and apply it.
