    awesome

    Alwyn is an awesome trainer and is always ahead of the curve. Finally, a book that shows the average gym rat what true core training is all about. People read this and stop the countless reps of spinal flexion 'sit-ups'.

    Amazing book - really worth picking up

    This book really helped fixed all of my minor back issues. What Lou writes is totally my experience: the more I worked out my whole body and core, the leaner I found myself.
