Review
When I first looked at the sales page for All Star Trainer's Secrets, I decided that I wanted to check this book out
because it made three very lofty claims. The headline read as follows:
"Nine Top Fitness , Bodybuilding and Nutritional Experts , Finally Release their Insider Secrets to Achieving Maximum
Fat Loss & Muscle Gain in Just 30 Days!"
"Get in the BEST SHAPE Possible! See Results in Just 30 Days! Guaranteed."
"Learn the Secrets These Experts Have Saved for Their Top Paying Clients, Discover how to Drop Body Fat and Gain Muscle
Mass FAST!"
"We Give You Step by Step Instructions by NINE Top Fitness Professionals."
The three claims that I was very interested in knowing were:
1) Losing maximum body fat;
2) Building maximum amount of muscle;
3) In 30 days!
The concept that really got my attention was doing both, building maximum muscle and losing maximum fat. This I had to
see since I'm a big believer in doing one or the other. Call me old school, but if you want to build muscle, you need
to consume alot of quality calories and concentrate on core movements. To me, cutting calories in a muscle building
phase does not support heavy training. I had to check this out!
Now, I know AtoZ fitness has been around for a little while and the information that's provided is pretty good. The members
section is pretty comprehensive so I decided to check this book out to see if it would live up to the claims. I knew
this was going to be interesting.
The first thing I checked out was to see who was giving up the information. There was some pretty recognizable names so
I figured there would be some good information in the book. So, I purchased the ebook for $34.00 USD.
The book is in pdf format so there was no downloading an ebook viewer or any of that which I was pleased with. The first
thing I noticed about the ebook was the content. I've purchased ebooks before and there always seemed to be about 30 pages
of crap at the beginning. Not so with this ebook. There's a cover page, a disclaimer and some acknowledgments which amounts
to about 3 pages. From there it dives right into the core. Good start.
The core of the ebook centered around one question which each expert had to answer. The question was as follows:
"If the average guy came to you and said, 'I want to gain the maximum amount
of muscle and lose the maximum amount of fat in the next 30 days. I don't want a complete education in bodybuilding and
diet, just tell me EXACTLY what to do for the next 30 days, step-by-step.' What would you tell that guy?
Interesting since this question is equivalent to finding the holy grail when it comes to body bulding. I know I've been
looking for it and I've been training seriously for the past 15 years! If your reading this review, your probably on it's
quest too.
The book gets right into the core and each expert wastes no time explaing the answer. The thing I noticed with this
book was the range in answers. Each expert has a field of expertise which might be losing fat and another in building
power and strength. Very interesting. The panel was made up of the following experts:
David Grisaffi
Mr. Grisaffi is a dedicated, well respected fitness professional. He is an expert in exercise prescription and sports
training. He is a Corrective Exercise Kinesiologist, Golf Biomechanic and Nutrition and Lifestyle Coach. Mr. Grisaffi

shows you how to put 50 pounds on your bench in 21 days. Mr. Hayward shows you how to build a more muscular body in
just 30 days.
Pete Sisco

the five-book "Ironman's Ultimate Bodybuilding" series and the author of the best-selling e-Book, TRAIN SMART! His
partner, John Little, and him have written six books on rational, scientific methods of bodybuilding. Here Mr. Sisco
explains how to maximize your training in 30 days.

Fat, Feed the Muscle". Mr. Venuto shows you his 30 day "growth spurt" program.
Jeremy Markum
Jeremy is the owner of www.busyandfit.com and a personal trainer in the San Diego, California area. Here Jeremy shows
you how to gain muscle and lose fat (For busy people).

George Stavrou
Mr. Stavrou is a certified personal trainer and lifestyle and weight management consultant. He is also the author of
the number one ebook seller at Amazon.com entitled "How You can Sculpt A Leaner, Healthier Body in 12 Weeks: A Guide
for Beginners!" Mr. Stavrou shows you how exactly how to sculpt a leaner you in 30 days.
A pretty impresive lineup with each expert having different areas of expertise. What did the experts have to say? First,
let me say that each expert provided full programs with nutrition programs, menus, and training programs complete with
detailed descriptions and photos. I have to say, I was impressed by the level of knowledge each possessed in their
particular area and the amount of detail each went into. For example, Pete Sisco's Power Factor Training was most
impressive in terms of his approach to training. He uses Power Factor Training and Static Contraction Training to build
up size and strength. I've personally tried his methods and they do indeed work. On the other hand, jeremy Markum designed
a full program designed for the busy person. I really liked this program beause it centers around ordinary, everyday working
people who don't have anymore than 45 minutes to spend in the gym. Mr. Markum's program made sense and I'm thinking of
seriously trying his program. Each program was laid out step by step, as promised in the original claim.
Now, Did the book live up to it's claim? Well, yes and no. It did indeed show you how to build maximum amount of muscle
and it did show you how to lose maximum amount of fat but what I did notice was the concensus most of the experts came to.
After I read the ebook, the first thing I noticed was the fact that most of the experts seemed to agree that you cannot
build maximum amount of muscle and burn the maximum amount of fat at the same time (which was my original assumption).
I think most of the experts agreed on this fact but their approach were sometimes at different ends of the spectrum.
For example, Lee Hayward's approach is hard core showing you how to first gain quickly to build muscle, while
David Grisaffi's approach is aimed more at losing extra body fat and maintaining your existing muscle mass. Each expert
fell somewhere between eating to gain using core exercises, cutting calories and increasing aerobics and everywhere in
between.
I know, the claim of the ebook was to do build maximum muscle and burn maximum fat at the same time but that's not to say
the book was lying. In fact, it did have step by step instructions, it did show you how to build maximum amount of muscle
and it did show you how to burn maximum fat. The difference is the way in which each expert describes the process. I
think the $34.00 was worth it and I got alot out of it. I would recommend this ebook to all trainers (especially beginners) based on the level of knowledge and the detail of instruction inside.
