Summary of Mark Lauren & Joshua Clark's Body by You

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

#1 Focus on your own needs, and not those of others, if you want to have a lean, strong body. Exercising is the best way to help your loved ones, as well as yourself, in the long run.

#2 You should make time for yourself to exercise, as exercise is critical to your health and well-being. However, gyms are also guilty of exploiting the belief that women like exercising in group classes because they are social creatures at heart.

#3 Cardio exercise is an extremely ineffective use of your time. It only burns about 200 calories per 45 minutes of activity. And while it may make you feel like you’re burning more calories, that’s not actually the case. Your focus should not be on the few calories you burn during exercise, but on the metabolic boost that muscles give you the rest of the time.

#4 The body adapts to whatever stress we place on it, and initially difficult and energy-consuming tasks become easier as we learn efficient motor patterns. Unless you increase intensity, the calorie expenditure of an activity will decrease as your movement proficiency increases.
