Review:This new edition of Light on Yoga goes deeply into Iyengar's method. The improved design, with more attractive typeface, is a vast improvement over previous editions. Detailed analysis of each asana and philosophy on every pose. An essential for serious Iyengar practice. Read more

Review:Love to follow Jassamyn on social media. A wonderful person, great personality and a fabulous teacher of Yoga. She has created a great book for starting a Yoga routine in the comfort of your own home. Read more

Review:I recently finished this book by "skinny science geek", powerlifter/strongman, philospher, and author Matt Perryman. I will share my verdict at the end.

Every so often, an individual comes along to challenge a fundamental belief. This belief that Perryman's book discusses is the bedrock of the modern fitness industry: Work hard in the gym and go "recover" well, lest you spoil all your "gainz" and get injured.

Exercise is fantastic because it makes the body create it's very own "hea... Read more

Review:Beautiful illustrations, detailed and easy to understand. It is a book, for the average practitioner, to have around and look into from time to time in order to gain more insight on the muscles each pose directly affects. There is just so much depth to yoga poses than what we might simply guess. I think this a very interesting book. Read more

Review:It works! My physical strength is up!! I feel good. I have more POWER.
I am a pioneer missionary in Thailand, I am constantly on the look out for simple and totally effective methods on how to improve life. I learned a lot from this book! Thumbs up. I have myself discovered "secrets" how to improve my life, I have written two Kindle books myself: one on gum disease (An Amazing Alternative Treatment for Periodontal Disease) and one on the, as I describe them, best body deodorant in the world (...

Review:I was surprised to find that you still need equipment. I am disappointed to see that. There is good information here if, you are new to HIIT. But if your not new, you may be disappointed to find this information is already out there in several books and all over the web. It's just another re-package of the information. Read more

Review:--and the results are pretty good. Unlike most of the negative reviewers, who are quibbling over the author's nutrional ideas or whether or not it's fair to use household implements and still call it bodyweight training, I've actually done the program for a while and I like it. I'm fairly advanced at this type of training but, coming off a long-ish layoff and with the injury that caused the layoff still limiting me, I chose the intermediate level program in You Are Your Own Gym. It worked pr... Read more

Review:I've been following the books program for 6 weeks now and my skill and strength have dramatically improved. I am a trainer and have read every book on body weight training there is and this book takes a different route starting with easy basics and leads you to impressive human feats. Highly recommended!

Review:While the book gives good information it doesn't give any specific exercise progressions, which could leads to people who don't know enough about exercise to injure themselves. It would have gotten my highest endorsement had it included basic, intermediate and advanced exercises. I'm a CPT so I know what all is involved but the average user wouldn't have a clue. Read more

Review:My boyfriend is in love with this book. He doesn't use any gym equipment and is solely reliant on his own self to do strength training. He had studied other books in the past but he said that he learned lots from this book in regards to muscles targeted and areas he was unknowingly neglecting. Read more
