“You’ll read a lot in this book about what I believe. But as far as my overarching fitness philosophy: It’s about results. There is no single utopia for all. Some people need more flexibility and recovery. Some people need more strength work. The purpose of this program is to give you a comprehensive view of what it takes to be the best you can be. The program will get you results no matter where you are physically. Most people’s view of “appropriate intensity” is different from my view of appropriate intensity. I believe you train for dynamic movement, not to just lie on a bench and press weights. Training should be multidirectional, multiplanar. I believe in capturing the play element in exercise. I also believe there is an athlete in each of us. My goal is to train that athlete—no matter his or her talent—for peak performance”

That’s a quote as regards training philosophy from my friend and fellow Perform Better speaker Todd Durkin‘s first ever book – The IMPACT Body Plan.

I’ve spent a lot of hours on the road at conferences with Todd and down at his facility (Fitness Quest 10) in San Diego. And one of the things that no one can accusing Todd of lacking is passion for what he does. But getting the type of results he gets requires more than passion – it requires solid ability to get the job done. After all – it’s skills that pay the bills!

Ten years after opening Fitness Quest 10, Todd has expanded multiple times, now has a full training team behind him and his client roster expanded to include such luminaries as SuperBowl MVP Drew Brees – Todd is one of the guys that UnderArmor, TRX , Perform Better, Mens Health and myself call when we want some real info.

I’m an “information product” geek. I literally love getting my hands on new books, manuals and DVD’s and this was no exception. But I am more interested in seeing what real “in-the-trenches” practitioners do in their facilities with their clients.

The cool part is this is exactly what Todd and the Fitness Quest 10 team do on a daily basis.

You will be doing the exact same program that Todd puts his pro athletes through. You will do the exercises that Drew Brees does, that LaDainian Tomlinson does, that Aaron Rodgers does, that players from the Chargers, Saints, Jets, Bears, Packers, Vikings, Falcons, 49ers, Panthers, Rams, Buccaneers, Ravens, Padres, Phillies, White Sox, and Rangers do.

The IMPACT Body Plan is a 10 week transformation program that has exercise, nutrition, mind-set exercises, recovery and regeneration strategies, and as Todd always says – “and then some” in it.

It goes on sale Tuesday September 28th – and the best place to pick up a copy is here on Amazon.
