Narrated by: Sal Di Stefano

Burn fat, build lean, sexy muscles, lose inches, and feel healthier, more energetic, and youthful than you ever have in your life…with a revolutionary new approach to resistance training.

Tired of spending hours on the treadmill? Dealing with the joint paint of high impact exercise? And seeing very few results in terms of fat-burning and weight loss? If so, it’s time to join the revolution. Brought to you by Sal Di Stefano, the founder of the mega popular Mind Pump podcast, The Resistance Training Revolution reveals how resistance training is the best form of exercise to burn fat, boost metabolism, and achieve health benefits you cannot obtain from other forms of exercise.

Di Stefano breaks down fitness misconceptions, shares his decades of industry knowledge, and brings you a comprehensive, accessible guidebook that will give you the body you’ve always wanted—in as little as 60 minutes a week. This book features:

• Over 60 fat-burning, metabolism-boosting workouts you can do at home to sculpt your body and maximize your health and longevity
• Raw fitness truths that will show you what works and what doesn’t. You’ll be shocked at how easy it is to build lean muscle and lose fat once you understand these truths, and once you train your body the right way
• The newly discovered health benefits of resistance training in terms of heart health, bone strength, joint protection, and especially antiaging
• The exact formula for nutrition that makes losing fat, while sculpting your body a breeze and for the long term.
• Dozens of self-assessments to track your progress, and much more

The Resistance Training Revolution also reveals how to optimize your workout time following Mind Pump’s Muscular Adaptation Programming System (MAPS)—a system that ensures that you keep making progress without the frustrating plateaus. Isn’t it time you joined the revolution?

Great for everyone!

I am a anti aging person and advanced lifter. Even with all my experience, I still picked up some great nuggets of information from Sal. If you’re looking to get motivated, stay motivated or just learn more about our bodies and how we can stay young, healthy and fit, this is the right book for you.

Great read!

Must read! Great job of breaking down how and why resistance training is so important.

Good listen

I enjoyed listening to this book as much as I've enjoyed the mind pump podcast that Sal is a part of.

Great information

I believe this is the only healthy eating and exercise book I will ever need. It’s easy to follow and understand. Sal refrains from promoting one diet over another and encourages his readers to figure out what works and doesn’t for each individual. I plan to buy additional copies for my teens, who are athletes making their own choice and want understanding nutrition and fueling their bodies well. I believe I t’s a great book for all ages. Thank you

The practicality of advice combined with science is motivating!

No negativity for this book. Listened in audio now I bought the hard copy to carry with me!

A Perfect Place To Start!

Sal does a great job speaking to the beginner, along with enticing the educated personal trainer. Having a solid source to create your baseline of fitness is needed and Sal provided an easy to listen source. I would recommend buying the physical book if you are a beginner - although the audio is amazing, and the PDFS are available, being able to directly
reference specifics would be helpful for the
beginner.

Recommended for beginners

Mind Pump did a great job with this book. All information in it can be found via their podcast. Great information, but it is from one perspective of training. I highly recommend for anyone just starting their fitness journey

Life changing!

Purchased this audiobook after it was mentioned on Mindpump. Listened to this for a week and started changing my eating and activity habits. I’ve already lost 5lbs, but most importantly I am feeling much better. I will likely be listening to this again in the near future to help reinforce the healthy habits Sal mentions throughout the book. I am hoping I can stay disciplined and build a healthier relationship with myself and my body.

Revolutionary!!

Sal really knows his stuff and this book will positively impact so many lives! This is basic knowledge everyone should have about the benefits of resistance training for a healthier, happier life

32 years old and new to weight training

Very great book, especially like unhealthy beginners like myself . I go back and re-listen as necessary. Thanks
