Run Your Fat Off by Jason R Karp
Based on the latest research, RUN YOUR FAT OFF gives everyone--men and women, marathon runners to casual runners to nonrunners--a personalized plan on the best running workouts to lose the most weight.Running burns more calories than any other physical activity, making it the most effective weight loss strategy. Running is accessible to everyone in the world, and is second only to walking as the most popular physical activity in America. As any overweight, out-of-shape person who's tried running will tell you, running is also one of the best ways to get in shape.
Despite its effectiveness, running has been largely ignored by the weight loss experts. Until now. Blending author Dr. Jason R. Karp's unique expertise as a researcher, running coach, and lifelong runner into a practical running program, Run Your Fat Off includes:
*day-by-day running workouts for beginners, intermediate, and advanced runners that detail the most effective mix of runs for weight loss (i.e., long runs, fast runs, hill runs, interval runs, etc.)
*6 phases per level that allow runners to progress at their own pace, depending upon fitness level and weight loss goals
*drills to perfect your running technique so that you can burn more calories
*an eating plan that emphasizes the right mix of nutrients to fuel your runs without adding calories, complete with easy-to-prepare meals and recipes
*a special section for beginners on how to start running and not be intimidated
Unlike other running books, Run Your Fat Off focuses on the best ways to run to lose weight. And unlike other weight loss books, Run Your Fat Off focuses on the most effective weight loss activity, running. Featuring success stories from people who have lost weight and changed their lives through running, Run Your Fat Off combines two of America's leading obsessions into one effective plan.
Dr. Jason R.'s enthusiasm is contagious. Karp's fascination with the science of athletic performance as a child (one of his first queries was how baseball pitchers throw curveballs) led him down a yellow brick road that he is now traveling down as a coach, exercise physiologist, author, speaker, and founder of the REVO₂LUTION RUNNING(TM) certification program for coaches and fitness professionals all over the world. He has also worked as a senior editor for Active Network and as an teacher for USA Track & Field's level 3 coaching certification and coaching camps at the United States Olympic Committee. Dr. Karp is a USA Track & Field nationally certified coach, has been sponsored by PowerBar and Brooks, and was a member of the silver-medal-winning United States masters team at the 2013 World Maccabiah Games in Israel.For his efforts and services to his business, Jason was given the 2011 IDEA Personal Trainer of the Year (the fitness industry's highest accolade) and was honored with the IDEA Personal Trainer of the Year Award. Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise, International Journal of Sport Nutrition and Exercise Metabolism, and International Journal of Sports Physiology and Performance have all published his work.
