Ratings and reviews

snake oil salesman... TB12 has been clearly brainwashed by Guererro. consider this: Cal Ripken. Did Cal Ripken ever claim a secret formula or "method" ? Nope. it's simply natural selection. Brady is 1 in a million.

This information is new and it will be awhile before anyone can honestly review the core ideas. Most of the stuff is common sense and useful. I have been exercising using rubber bands for years and I have to say this book has the best rubber band exercises I have ever used.

Great book with new ideas to approach fitness for the everyday working man/woman to elite athletes looking to achieve overall better health. Anything with Tom Brady's name on it is going to bring the jealous haters along but to call a book dangerous is pathetic. He's telling you exactly what works for him and he only happens to be the best to ever do the job he does but is also still the best at 40 years old where almost every other man falls off extremely. I love the ideas and find it a great tool to stay healthy with a new approach to dieting and exercise.
