I love the information and exercises for the core, however I am greatly disappointed that she did not give more information on cardio section. For example: RPE (rate of perceived exertion) you choose the level you are working. She adds Basic high-intensity intervals, then the levels you choose to work and she put the RPE you work for amount of time.... but that is it.... okay- what kind of work outs should I do with high intensity intervals???? Then there is Anaerobic Endurance Intervals, Tababa- style Intervals, recovery week Intervals, turbo-charged tabata Intervals, and much more where it is like okay give some more examples or detailed exercises????
Cardio section is not planned out very well at all.... It is worth the read though.

Great workouts with photos to demonstrate how they were to be carried out, with different levels of intensity.

However, the HIIT workouts only gave a rough guide to how it should be done in terms of effort and timing. Would have been great if the exact exercises were spelt out.

Overall a nice reference to get started!

Well structured book that gave you everything you needed to know and no more (no filler, no 100 pages of recipes). Picked up some great core strength routines in this and the rest of the program looks good too.
