Publisher's Summary

A 10-week strength training programme that could transform your life...

You’ve already figured out that strength training is the best way to burn fat, develop lean muscle, and get in great shape.

And you’re ready to get started in the gym, as well as improving your diet.

But what exercises should you focus on? How many sets of each exercises? What about repetitions...rest periods...rest days?

Then there’s all the conflicting advice out there on diet and supplements in a very noisy health and fitness world.

The biggest problem of all? Finding an approach to weight training that you enjoy - and a diet that can be maintained in the long term.

Most men and women don’t - that’s why their attempts at achieving their fitness goals often end in failure and frustration.

In this audiobook Marc McLean, author of the Strength Training 101 book series and online fitness coach, lays out his full 10-week weight training programme, step-by-step.

But Marc has made all the same successful strategies available in his online programme Be Your Own PT in audiobook format so that you can access them, copy them - and get great results too.

In Be Your Own PT, Marc shares:

  • The exact gym workout plans he uses with clients.
  • Demonstrations of every exercise.
  • His unique approach to diet that you’ll never struggle with.
  • The three foundations of every successful workout programme.
  • A week-by-week plan of action that you can follow.
  • A series of positive habits that you introduce each week.
  • A bonus guide on natural supplements that can help you achieve your fitness goals quicker.
  • Success stories of people who achieved great results.

Time to get started on your transformation!

Practical Approach To Getting In Shape

I’ve listened to all of Marc’s audiobooks, but I’d say that Be Your Own PT is definitely the most practical of them all. It’s set out so that you can follow along each of the 10 weeks of the weight training program.

YOU are the P.T.

I have spent tons of money on personal trainers over the past 4-5 years. Up until now that is! This book teaches you how to invest in yourself and YOU being in control of your gym workouts.

Let me go to the gym!!!!!

This book gives you a 10-week gym program : including exercises, how many repetitions to do, how long to rest for etc etc. I’m desperate to get started & put it into practice - when my gym eventually opens again after lockdown!!

A bit too ambitious?

The author rhymes off a huge list of life transformations you can achieve following this fitness program. I like positivity an’ all …but some of it sounds a bit too unrealistic for just 10 weeks.

Recommended!

No hyped up gym B.S. that I’ve come across previously with other fitness guides, some very helpful tips on training + diet.

Excellent 10 week plan

What a great book! The 10 week programme is great to follow with lots of variation to keep things interesting. Not only that guidance around nutrition, supplements and how to track progress ensure that all bases for success are there. Beyond the 10 weeks you then will have all the knowledge and exercises to ensure you continue on your journey.

For the less experienced, access to Marc’s videos on each exercise will ensure you can master form, workout safely and avoid injuries.

Excellent read and gets you really fired up for success!

Strange Scottish accent!!

Great book on weight training and fitness, but the narrator is American and the author is Scottish. Would have preferred to hear the author narrating the book himself.
