AN INTRODUCTION

Book Three came about while I was sorting through my original 13-week logbook the one I used to offer my clients. Some people cannot grasp the importance of keeping a journal, at least not for long and not with the intention of discovering their own bad habits.

So what I did was create a diary of my own as an intro to the logs using not only emails from my customers as a guide but things that really happened to my wife and I while we lived in Hawaii for a year.

The resulting story was both entertaining and educational, even for me. Book Three in turn became all about taking account of your own actions day to day.

From literally dozens of clients, hundreds of emails and a year's worth of anecdotes, this humorous and very sensational, 45 day look at myself, and what I was doing for my body proved to be so beneficial in every aspect of my life.

I got this idea while answering questions for my clients online. I realized no matter how easy I made things for them in Book One, no matter how many new routines I offered in Book Two, some people still could not grasp what was expected of them.

I wanted to show people, using myself as an example, what it was like to walk in the shoes of someone not only following the Know How program to a tee but someone who was coming off a lifestyle that didn't even compare, one that was the complete opposite.

"Fitness Centers do not promote a complete lifestyle...
If they did, you wouldn't need a membership for long."

This book covers over eating, skipping meals, eating fast food, having allergies, being an alcoholic, workaholic and so many other issues. It would surprise me if we did not cover one of your issues as well! While the first half of this book is a diary, the second half is full of detailed exercise and menu log sheets to help you monitor your journey.

You use the logs to take notes based upon the foods you eat everyday, exercises you perform 3 days a week and you include any comments or thoughts regarding anything else that troubles you along the way. This helps build an understanding of your individual wants and needs that you otherwise would never put any thought into and allows you to recognize your mistakes.

Whether you're a bodybuilder, athlete, model or just someone trying to shed some unwanted fat, no one can teach you how to plan and implement an effective eating and exercise plan like YOU can. Once you see where you are falling behind or slacking it will become more evident and easier to get back on track. That is right, and how better to get to know more about YOU than to pay attention to what YOU are doing for a few months?

Some things are no-brainers we can admit that. Other things require very specific details that can only be pinpointed after you have written them down. Sometimes we do not even realize what we are doing is incorrect until it is noted on paper right before us.

Sure, it would be easy enough to keep track of it all in a three ring binder or your own notebook, but you have already tried that and failed?
