Amazon.com Review:
Fitness trainer Jorge Cruise has helped 3 million cyberspace clients lose weight, and now he's headed for your bookshelf with the same goal in mind. In just eight minutes a day, says Cruise, you can drop two pounds of fat per week, change your shape, and gain muscle and energy. His secret formula: an inspirational 'wake-up talk,' followed by strength training two muscle groups per day, eating according to his 'eating card' program, and keeping a journal. For exercise, Cruise presents a varied, 28-day program of illustrated exercises using dumbbells. Why the emphasis on strength training? While aerobics burns calories while you're exercising, adding muscle revs up fat burning at rest by increasing your metabolic rate. Every pound of muscle you gain burns an extra 50 calories per day. You'll look better and feel younger and more energetic, resulting in more activity, burning more calories, he says. Cruise's eating plan emphasizes 'good' (omega) fats, complex carbohydrates, high-quality protein (low in saturated fat), and vegetables, with dairy, fruits, and 'treats and cravings' in moderation. His 'Eating Card System' gives you an allotment of portions from each of the food groups. If you're the kind who likes the regimentation of following a specific program every day, Cruise will get you moving, eating better, and losing weight. --Joan Price

- Cruise makes fitness easier
I've been using Jorge Cruise books for about five years. Overweight and basically lazy, this was the way to get myself moving early in the morning. All strengthening exercises. If you're more than 30 pounds overweight and really out of shape, try the companion book: 8 Minutes in the Morning: Real Bodies, Real Shapes. Now I'm also using his hips and thighs book and his belly book. I wore out 8 Minutes in the Morning and bought this new copy. Honestly, only eight minutes worth of exercising combined with a seasonable diet (he lets you eat sweets!) can make a difference.

Cruise has done his research on nutrition and fitness and explains it all in a way it's easy to understand. Speaking of easy, the exercises are limited to two parts of the body each day, each week. For example, on Monday, he gives one exercises (4 sets) to strengthen the back and one for the chest. Tuesday, shoulders and... Sundays ... Read More

- 8 minutes in the morning
I have found the exercises in this book to be very user friendly. I originally checked out the book at the local library and liked it so much that I purchased it for myself. However, after being involved in the program for three weeks I was in an accident and fractured my shoulder. I am on the mend now and should be able to resume the program in a few weeks.

- Disappointing
The content of the book is nothing new. I am disappointed in myself for spending the $12.00 knowing there probably wouldn't be any earth-shaking revelations. Buy this book used if you can. It wasn't worth it to me at full price. This book will be another donation to the public library.

- Great for beginners!
I first discovered 8 Minutes in the Morning about 7 or 8 years ago. I was overweight, unhealthy, and did little to no exercise. I found an article on the internet that described the basic philosophy and provided a week's worth of exercises. I started out by doing this for several weeks. It was simple and very doable for me. I'm not a morning person so it was nice that it only took 8 minutes. I also started noticing that I felt stronger and more toned. This plan helped me get into the habit of working out and helped me get more physically fit so that I could take on more strenuous exercise. I soon added aerobics and started eating healthier. Eventually, I started doing aerobics 3 days a week and full body strength training twice a week. I think this book is an excellent way for people to get started in fitness but after a while I think you would have to make a change or you may reach a plateau. Over the course ... Read More
