(More customer reviews)Don't be misled by this book's title, modest size, or the lurid cover: 'Fighting Fit' is a highly readable, common-sense guide to fitness. Although it's written with soldiers and marines in mind, this book is of considerable value to civilians as well. Weale's writing is witty and down-to-earth, free of the pseudo-religious psychobabble that plagues other fitness books. This is a dry, understated, very British book; while I happen to like this style, it may grate with some people. The book's emphasis is on practical advice, not just on fitness training but on nutrition (with recipes), outdoor navigation and first aid. Best of all, most of the training in this book can be performed without a gym membership. Although I can't comment on how well it prepares you for military service, I can tell you that this book helped me shed some pork and greatly improve my fitness. I've felt the benefits in every other aspect of my life. You don't need colourful books full of tanned models in spandex; buy this book instead, it's worth every penny.
