User Ratings and Reviews

5 Stars Great gift idea!
My husband is a Phys Ed teacher and loves to work out so he purchased this book and LOVES IT! I recently found out that my 18 year old brother is swearing in to the Marines so I sent him a copy to prep for boot camp. Anyone who swears into any branch of the military deserves a gift and you can’t find one much better than this one!

4 Stars It’s got some uses
The 16-day workout plan and the exercise tutorials are good. A lot of the book has no use to the average home user. Unless you have access to a military training ground. It does highlight some of the stuff you will do in boot camp.

5 Stars Great book
I think the book is excellent for anyone interested in personal fitness, regardless of whether or not they have joined or will join the marine corp. The stretches, explanations, and workouts seem to be carefully reviewed by professional physiologists and excercise scientists, but I dont know if that is really the case. the nutritional information is solid. It gives insights into boot camp and the marines life.

3 Stars Simple & graphic
This book is well written, easy to use and read. This simple and short volume is best thought of as a graphical “how to perform the movements” exercise guide. I recommend it for anyone.

5 Stars Solid workout book.
I liked this book. To complement what other reviewers wrote, the book has actual day by day schedule of Marine boot camp pt exersices. It highlights the difference between OCS at Quantico and Parris Island/San Diego recruit training. In addition to daily 16 it has workout schemes for different time schedules. The photos were useful, as many would concentrate on a particular machine or exersice and show it from various viewpoints.
