I have always been bored with cardio so was relieved to see some data and logic backing up the idea that cardio as westerners know it (75% exertion for 20 minutes or more) is not only boring and unnatural but it is deteriorating to the heart, lungs and joints as well. I was already doing interval training (walk/sprints, kettlebells and bodyweight exercises) but after reading this book have tailored my routines to conform with PACE, which basically meant putting more focus on the rest period (I was already progressively increasing the exertion). I also got a heartrate monitor which really helps to keep you in the 80, 90 or 100% exertion zones as well as monitor recovery time.
In just one month my body fat went from low to extremely low, not that that was my aim. I wish I had more fat to burn because I am curious to see how much and how fast it would come off. I am using kettlebells, sprints and biking. I am trying to convert some overweight friends to see if they experience the fat loss too since I don’t know if I am typical.

I love this program. I have recommended it to all of my friends. I have seen numerous examples of why the information in this book is true. I used to be a marathon runner and fought continuously to keep my weight down. My most effective weight loss program was doing 10 minutes a week of high intensity strength training and ZERO cardio. I was in the best shape of my life. Due to some heavy traveling, I have put back on 15 lbs and I am using this program to take it off. Its effective, leaves you feeling great, keeps you in great shape and it is a very small committment of time. If I had known this back when I ran marathons, I might have saved my knees!
