The 12-minute weight-loss plan

The 12 Minute Guide to Weight Loss takes High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) and combines it with a straightforward, easy-to-stick-to eating plan that shows readers how it is actually possible to lose weight with minimum of effort, no special equipment - not even a gym-membership - all with just 12 minutes exercise a week. Sounds too good to be true? It works, and it is supported with the latest cutting-edge scientific research. No counting calories, no wholescale avoidance of carbs, no fasting. It's genuinely easy to stick to. Contents include: * Why strenuous exercise doesn't always work * The remarkable story behind HIIT * A simple HIIT programme to be followed three times a week * A dietary plan including a 2 weeks 'orientation phase' followed by 'continuation phase' * The essence of the diet: smart carbs, smart fats, smart proteins. * Menus and lots of quick and tasty recipes * A review of the scientific research supporting the programme HIIT has been building slowly over the past few years with gym instructors and personal trainers quickly seeing the benefits for their clients. It is now coming into the mainstream. This new book is the first to promote HIIT for weight loss, combining an eating plan with exercises from an authority in this field. This is weight loss and weight maintenance made easy.
