Summary: The only way to live and train
Comment: About 7 years back I went to a one day Triathlon camp out on Long Island and old Phil gave a talk. I am the type who will try anything if it makes some sense. I bought his books there and immediately started training with the 180-age formula and low heart rate method. I had been running triathlon for 2 years prior to using this method and there was no comparison in my level of fitness. I ran my first 1/2 Ironman (long course) and while I cut myself short on calories, I completed the race in a respectable amount of time. The proof was the next day; Even though I swam, cycled, and ran over 70 miles in a period of 6 hours, I had not one ounce of soreness the next day. Not one pain, cramp, pull or anything else that many experience with a race of this magnitude. I used his method religiously for 3 months prior to that race and have done so ever since. For those of you who do not do any kind of racing, improve your health by reading this book. You will find that many of the things that they are coming out with now (harmful transfats to name one), Phil Maffetone had been talking about for years. Skeptic's get there fuel from resentment; don't let others sway you away from living a healthy physical life style. By this book and keep it close at hand.

Summary: An epiphany
Comment: This information in this book radically changed my outlook on exercising. Before I read this book I would jump rope for 15 minutes every morning. Then spread out through the week I would go on high intensity bike rides 4-5 days a week, weight lift 4 days a week, and do high intensity martial arts training 4-5 days a week. I though I was performing mostly aerobic exercise with the exception with the wieghtlifting. After reading his book I discoved that since all my activities were of high intensity I was mostly peforming anerabic exercise. The information in the book also explained why my body was so resistent to weight loss(adrenal exhuastion) and why I was getting injured on a regular basis.

Summary: A Must for the "Human Race"
Comment: This book sheds a bright light of truth on many of the myths and marketing ploys used in the food industry today. Furthermore, Dr. Maffetone's writing style is clear and he provides ample supporting data and references for his assertions. I have been following the "Maffetone Method" of fitness and nutrition for 9-months. Close friends and relatives see a measurable difference in me - weight loss, more energy and a youger complexion. Additionally, I have less aches and pains, and have greatly improved my aerobic endurance. Finally, this book is especially important for parents who care about their children's nutrition. You might be surprised to know that the glass of juice and bowl of fortified cereal with low-fat milk you fed your child this morning is causing them to fall asleep in class...

Summary: This book became my "bible" for many years
Comment: This book changed my life! It gave me a whole new perspective on exercising and fitness. Most importantly that exercise is not a goal (to lose pounds), it is a WAY OF LIFE!!!
Basically it taught me that if you want to feel and be healthy... you really need to be exercising regularly for the rest of your life. It helped me understand metabolism and how exercise affects your whole system. I am constantly seeing health experts and trainers making many of the mistakes this book talks about, namely exercising to meet your target heart rate, building aerobic muscles vs. anaerobic muscles, etc.
ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT BOOKS I OWN. I am constantly lending it out to people, or at least telling people I will lend it to them when i get it back from the last person I lent it to! :)

Summary: Changed My Life
Comment: This book has changed my eating habits - hopefully forever. Dr. Maffetone writes in an easily understandable style. Being freed of my Carbohydrate addiction is the best thing that ever happened to my diet.
