Here he shares the secrets of his transformation in a uniquely creative, yet no-nonsense regimen--enlivened with humor and sheer force of personality--that will inspire readers to enjoy working out as never before, while building a body they never thought possible. The book offers four levels of fitness, from Bronze to Platinum, including: - a 4-week beginner's program that takes inches off the waist and boosts energy - a 5-week program for intermediates that increases strength while maintaining muscular and cardiovascular endurance - an advanced 9-week program that turns the body into a muscle-building and fat-burning machinge - complete with 6-pack abs and as much energy as LL Cool J - the hardcore 3-week fat-torching program LL used for the "Control Myself" video - a new level in ripped-to-the-bone fitness and sex appeal - a special 4-week "Diamond" program for women seeking to shape up fast for the summer or upcoming event meal plans and recipes that fuel workouts while burning fat with food [close]

recommends it for: people who wanna do it with ll cool j

Okay, I'm just reading this for the pictures, and on the off chance that if I faithfully follow its stupid instructions, someday LL Cool J will finally agree to have sex with me (I have literally been longing for that happy occasion since the fifth grade, and while my chances probably improved infinitesimally when I moved to New York in my mid-twenties, they are now once again in rapid decline towards zero).

So far the most depressing things about this book are: the ugly tattoos marring LL's ...more

Enough with the celebrity work out books already. Just because you guys have trainers doesn't mean you have to write a book about the fact that you think you know how to work out. The only reason these celebrities are in such fantastic shape is because the have the money and resources to pay for the best trainers. Enough of my babbling already. This book is one of many that do the same thing...Attempt to teach you how to work out. Go see your kids gym teacher. He'll charge you less.

If for the pictures alone....it's totally worth checking out! The workouts are very intense and tough to follow if you aren't dedicated...if you have the dedication however, I recommend giving it a try. Has workouts of various intensitys as well as one section which focuses on women...which I photocopied but will be suprised if I complete.

This book's rating has been lowered because of the bad rap lyrics sprinkled throughout. If you can get over those, this would be a good workout manual, as long as you plan on working out every single day.
