by Brad Schoenfeld, Minna Lessig

The ultimate upper body fitness book–guaranteed to have you looking your very best. For millions of women, staying fit and toned is a battle often fought but never actually won. Many women are looking to develop a leaner, more shapely upper body and arms yet no exercise program or training regimen ever seems to work–until now. The sequel to Look Great Naked, this cutting-edge book shows how to target problem areas and get spectacular results. With this customized upper body program based on Brad Schoenfeld’s High Energy Fitness™ system, women will learn how to tone muscles while simultaneously reducing body fat. Including the same bodysculpting information readers would receive from a personal training session with Brad himself, this supercharged method of exercise focuses on the most nagging trouble eliminating bat wings (drooping arms), firming the breasts, and sculpting the shoulders. The High Energy Fitness™ system is incredibly time efficient as well, requiring only 15 minutes of training per day for each trouble zone. And each of the 45 exercises is described in detail and accompanied by illustrative diagrams and photos demonstrating how they should be performed. From the fat-burning benefits of cardiovascular exercise and strategies to help stay motivated to healthy recipes from some of the top fitness models in the world and even a one-week program on how to get into top shape for a specific event, Look Great Sleeveless is a must-have fitness book for anyone in search of a more shapely upper body.
