New Book Alert!

Hey Readers!  Just dropping by for a quick plug!

Typically I'm not in the business of recommending products sight unseen, but with this book I'm going to have to make an exception.

A couple of years ago I walked into Alwyn Cosgrove's Results Fitness studio, just to sniff around the place and get a sense of how a pro of Alwyn's caliber makes it all happen.  At the time the studio wasn't all that impressive looking (they've duded the place up significantly since), but the people working out there certainly were.  This was around 11 am, and most of the folks there were 30's-40's women, but I'd never seen so many six-packs on so many women in my life. 

Although she hasn't been quite as visible, Alwyn's wife Rachel Cosgrove is every bit the pro--and every bit equal partner in the Results enterprise.  Moreover, she's completed an Ironman (!), successfully competed as a figure competitor (!!) AND put up some serious powerlifting numbers in competition (!!!).  If that doesn't make her one of the most impressive all-around athletes you've ever encountered...well, I just don't know what planet you're living on. 

Well, Rachel has a new book out and I don't care if it's for women--I'm picking it up, and I'm suggesting everyone reading this does too, just to see what this absurdly talented athlete and trainer has to say about getting in shape.  

Okay--now I'm really outta here till Monday.
