About the Author
Mark De Lisle is a former Navy SEAL. He has personally trained thousands of individuals with his Special-Ops workout.
5 Stars Complete Fitness Guide
This book not only goes into all of the exercise routines used by various special forces, but also helps you to plan a workout schedule to measure your progress. The book also goes in stretching and warm-ups, which is sometimes neglected by people exercising. The background information on the different special forces is also very interesting.
1 Star Another book I knew would not recommend
After inspecting the book I got what I expected: A book meant for people with little no military experience, and even less time spent exercising. Most of the workouts could be put together by anyone with access to the internet, all they have to do is search. With there being no variation in the books’ preplanned workouts that wouldn’t be to hard to do. The only thing that is really any good about the book is that it stresses the importance of stretching, something many people often regard as unimportant, however it is not mentioned near enough to make this a worthwhile buy.
Listen, if you really want to train for the Special Operations community there are much better resources. While the internet and books are good, human resources are always the best. I suggest you find someone who can teach you through speech, rather than text.
4 Stars good fundamental workouts
This book is filled with good hard fundamental workouts. Other reviewers have critized the workouts for lack of variation but there is only so many different ways to put push-ups, pull-ups, sit-ups, and leg exercises together. I thought there were a bunch of good exercises in here. I use it as a reference book and mix and match from the various exercises presented. Admittedly, some of the exercises I knew already (I’ve been at it for 20 years now), but this book had a enough good stuff to make it worth it. As a bonus, the physical fitness tests of the various military units are presented within.
Note that most of the exercises are body-weight exercises. Although there is a smaller section on weight lifting, I wouldn’t use this book as a reference for that. Note also that the workouts in the book are high level, high intesity workouts.
5 Stars very nice book
This is a great book for someone looking for a good workout routine.
It has great workout schedules and has many different workouts with pictures to show how to perform them correctly.
This book has more then enough info to help you get buff.
2 Stars not impressed
This book was very unimpressive and very basic as well. The workouts are almost identical and lacking at best. The workouts are the exactly the same 3 days/week for 12 weeks; quite boring. They are challenging workouts, but do not compare to the special forces plans I have seen in other books and online. Also no info on diet and very little cardio. Good info on adding weights or cycling in some useful weight routines though.
