Not only is this a very thorough book, but it is available from Amazon's 'new & used' sources for quite a low price, considering how recently it was published. I recieved a hard cover edition for 5.94! I only have one complaint: Most of Ilg's promotional photos on-line show him using an elaborate system of yoga blocks, presumably to enhance the forms' effectiveness. I was quite interested in this aspect of his training, and was, ( I feel, rightfully), assuming that the book would elaborate in this direction. Unfortunately, there is no mention whatsoever of the blocks and their uses here in the book. Why?

This book is phenomenal.
I really love Steve's focus on functional strength, as opposed to
strength for strengths sake.
Ilg combines Yoga, Strength, Cardio, Meditation and Nutrition.

The workouts are challenging and extremely effective, they will transform your body (and mind) if you follow through. Steve's encouragements all throughout the book are very helpful/motivating.
