Harvey Walden’s No Excuses! Fitness Workout

No_excuses My favorite Celebrity Fit Club Marine drill sergeant is touring around the country in the coming months to promote his new book Harvey Walden’s No Excuses! Fitness Workout. It will be released September 18 from Rodale Press.

Harvey’s one lean mean fighting machine. Here’s the book description:

The U.S. Marine drill instructor who has inspired millions through the massively popular TV show, Celebrity Fit Club, reveals his star-studded formula for lifelong health and fitness. Countless marines have trained with Drill Instructor Walden—and now you can too.

Harvey offers a workout so simple, you can do it watching your favorite TV show, and so effective, it will change your life. In Harvey Walden’s NO EXCUSES! Fitness Workout, he becomes your personal drill instructor for a platoon of one—YOU! All he asks is that you give him half an hour a day, four days a week, to develop a new body, a new attitude—and a new you.

The tough marine from Chicago’s South Side tells of his own personal challenges and the lessons he’s learned. He will teach you how to get beyond your excuses and meet the challenge of getting fit. Harvey knows all about excuses—from rookie marines to Hollywood celebrities, he’s seen every trick in the book. He knows just how hard people will try to AVOID getting fit.

But he also knows that if you get off your butt, leave behind that sugary, salty, snacky food you’ve been chewing on, and follow his recipe for exercise success, you’ll turn your life around. He knows because he’s done it. And you can do it too! In this book, he sets out a complete three-stage fitness plan for YOU:

Stage One: Get OFF Your Butt.
Stage Two: Now You Are in the Fight.
Stage Three: OOH RAH! You’re a Stud (or Studette)!

With thirty-minute workouts for each level of fitness that keep you in motion while taking you through warm-up, cardio, strength training, and cool-down, each stage will hone and tone your body, introducing new challenges as you get fitter.

A bonus gym section can take you further still. And Harvey gives his very own personal advice at every stage. So—No Excuses! It’s time to get in the fight.
