Guide Review
Ready, Set, GO!
Phil Campbell's book focuses on Synergy Fitness, ten strategies to help get you in peak condition.  The strategies are based on raising growth hormone (GH) levels naturally through specific activities such as anaerobic training, "slow wave" sleep, healthy eating, and strength training.  His approach is appealing.  Each chapter is short and concise, providing detailed information in a casual tone.  The first section is a rather long explanation about growth hormone: what it does and how to increase it naturally.  The next section covers structuring a fitness plan that includes flexibility, endurance, anaerobic training, plyometric activities and weight training.  Each section has pictures & descriptions.  Overall, the exercise routine is solid and the book easy to understand and will probably appeal to beginners.  However, like any other routine, it will need to be changed regularly to avoid plateaus.
