In "Iron Fitness" Mark and his wife Julie, a 3 time Iron Man champion and mother, present a new way of staying in shape while staying employed. This book will help readers define their current fitness, fitness goals and then will provide a plan to help them achieve their goals through maximizing their workouts. Mark and Julie are scientific about the way they work out (as evidenced by their almost perfect anatomies) and in "Iron Fitness" they take the reader through every stage -- from aerobic, anaerobic exercise, stretching, strength and endurance exercises (yes, they're different!) to diet and the use of meditation as a means for motivation and sustenance (especially those bad days at the gym). Filled with inspiring anecdotes from their lives, this is not just a book filled with workout plans and nutritional schedules (although it has them) -- it's a philosophy for living that Mark and Julie practice, have tested on others who have had dramatic results and are providing so that others may subscribe and benefit from.
