Burn the Fat Feed the Muscle is 340 pages of nutritional and fitness advice from a long time natural bodybuilder and personal trainer. This book is not for people who looking for an easy way to lose weight. This is more of a complete education in bodybuilder eating and workout principles to cut body fat for those who know a little about body building already or are willing to learn.

Burn The Fat Feed The Muscle is a .pdf downloadable and printable  fitness program. It works with both Mac and PC.

Burn The Fat Feed The Muscle explains the methods that natural bodybuilders and professional fitness models use to reach lean single digit fat percentages while displaying very muscular physiques.

The Trainer

Tom Venuto is a natural (no drugs or steroids) bodybuilder, author and personal trainer with 19 years of experience. If you've ever wondered what 3.7 % body fat looks like, you can see it here in this picture of Tom Venuto.

What Kind of Equipment Do I Need?

The author expects you to have access to a commercial gym or very well equipped home gym. You will be working primarily with free weights (dumbells and barbells), so a bench is a must. He does not spend any time explaining exercise or the mechanics of a particular exercise movement; just gives you the names. So, unless you are already very familiar with bodybuilding exercises like "stiff legged deadlift," "barbell rows" and "military bb press, you would be well advised to invest in a good exercise manual as well. Something like The New Encyclopedia of Modern Bodybuilding would be ideal.  A kitchen scale for the diet portion is also recommended.

How Many Days Do I Need to Work Out?

Burn The Fat Feed the Muscle recommends that beginners do a weight workout three times per week (full body routine) on non-consecutive days. Intermediate level are advised to do three  or four workouts per week on a two day split routine (half the body one day, half the body the next day; each muscle group worked no more than twice per week.) Advanced level can expect to do weights four or five days per week on this program, using a three or four day split routine (each muscle group worked once every five to seven days.)

In addition to the weight workouts, Burn the Fat Feed the muscle recommends that everyone do at least three days per week of cardio for 20 to 30 minutes at a time if your body fat levels are already at a desirable level.  If you want to lose fat, Venuto asks you to add a fifth or even seventh day of cardio to maximize your results.

The Program

This is a good program, in that it you will lose weight if you follow it, and without wrecking your health in the process. Like all successful programs, it works because it combines a sound nutritional advice with vigorous exercise.

What I liked most about Burn The Fat is that its one of the most complete books on modern nutritional techniques for attaining the fitness model look. Once you read this, you can talk intelligently and at length with any other fitness enthusiast about manipulating metabolic rates, determining body composition, and macronutrient ratios. What this program does best is explain the big picture of what needs to be done and how. It has the best section, by far, on goal setting, how to chart your progress and learning to create meal plans (can be difficult for some people.)

Where I think Burn the Fat Feed the Muscle is weak is in explaining the mechanics of the individual exercises that it recommends. For someone who has zero exercise experience, this book alone is not going to be enough. But, if you are already comfortable with basic weight training exercises, have access to a trainer or friend at a gym that explain proper form to you, or can get your hands on bodybuilding manual from the library or amazon.com you will be all set.

Fat Loss Ability:

Burn The Fat Feed The Muscle is one of the good guys. It too is a solid program. It's based on healthy nutritional guidelines and classic exercises that have built some of the most famous physiques in the natural bodybuilding arena. You will lose fat on this program, but you must adhere to the nutritional advice on not only on a temporary basis, but as a lifestyle.

Ease of Use:

While I found it easier to use than The Truth About Six Pack Abs, I think that exercise instructions are a little light, especially for beginners. Complete weightlifting newbies will need a classic bodybuilding manual to better understand the terminology and weightlifting strategies he suggests.

Beginners with previous weightlifting experience will do well with this book. If you already know good weightlifting form on the classic lifts and understand terms "double progression," "split body routines," and "concentric and eccentric movement," but have not achieved your fitness goals then this book may be the missing link for you (especially if your nutrition has been lax.)
