Detailed item info | Synopsis | Contrary to the popular assumption that carbohydrates are easily converted into fat, which is promoted by THE ZONE and by DR. ATKINS' DIET REVOLUTION, the Goors--a husband and wife health team--assert that men become overweight due to high-fat diets and lack of exercise. In addition to showing the male reader how to determine his ideal weight, they explain how he can calculate the number of calories he can consume and the amount of physical activity he must perform on a daily basis to achieve and maintain that weight. Their plan allows for three generous-sized meals and two snacks.
