Mike Levinson, a father of three (with two more on the way), blames "dad fat" on a lack of time to exercise, sleep deprivation and the chaos of adding a baby to a hectic household. But Levinson, a registered dietitian and former personal trainer, has a solution. According to his book, Buff Dad, a little tweaking of the diet and 30-minute exercise sessions can transform fat fathers into fit role models. Barbara Correa, Los Angeles Daily News (May 2008)

Synopsis
From a nutritionist and noted trainer to pro-athletes comes a four-week game plan to help any Dad lose his spare tire even when hes lost his spare time., Before: From Puffy Dad After: To Buff Daddy Your Saturday workouts at the gym have been replaced by Saturday Little League games; your morning run has become running out the door to make the daycare drop-off; and your romantic (and healthy) sushi night has become family pizza with a side of crayons. While being a dad changes your life for the better in so many ways, it can also be detrimental to your waistline...and your overall health. Enter Mike Levinson, a nutritionist and trainer to many star athletes, who put on fifty pounds after his wife had their first child. Taking his years of experience--from inside training camps and test kitchens--he developed the Buff Dad Program, transforming his middle-age spread to six-pack abs and helping many other dads like him lose weight, tone up, and improve their health and energy levels--usually in less than 28 days. In this, the first program tailored with dads in mind, Levinson gives men the four-week game plan to get it done. The secret? Testosterone, a key fuel that boosts your body's ability to lose weight and build muscle naturally, yet something that is woefully deficient in most men's diets today. The Buff Dad program shows you how to incorporate testosterone 'powerfoods' into your meals to help you take the weight off. By combining this tasty and realistic nutritional plan with the Buff Dad Workout Blitz--targeted exercises just three times a week--you will be on your way to being the Buff Dad you want to be, and your family needs you to be., A Game Plan to Help Dads Lose Their Spare Tire When They've Lost Their Spare Time... Mike Levinson, former bodybuilder and nutritionist/trainer to pro-athletes and stars, has a message for all those dads whose spare tire is getting more inflated. "Listen up, guys: Sympathy pounds are one thing, but now that your baby is one. . .two . . .or ten, it's time to get back into shape." And here's a 28-day game plan to help Dad get it done. Women aren't the only ones who gain weight during pregnancy and parenthoodthe latest research shows that men put on 'sympathy pounds' and continue to gain weight when each child comes along because late-night feedings and child care eat away at the time and motivation that was once reserved for exercise. Well, not anymore. A nutritionist and trainer to many star athletes, including Charles Oakley and JT Snow, Mike Levinson is a dad, toowho put on 50 pounds when his wife had their first child. Using his expertise in the gym and in the kitchen, he put together the Buff Dad program to lose weight, tone up, and regain the energy that had fallen by the wayside. In just four weeks, Mike gives harried dads the motivation, exercise tips, and diet advice to burn off pounds without burning away precious time. The secret? The Buff Dad four-week workout blitz, which builds muscle in half the time (just 30 minutes a day), combined with foods that boost testosterone levels in the body. By combining these testosterone superfoods with the exercises, men will see and feel a difference in just 28 days. Packed with meal plans, an illustrated workout guide, guy-friendly recipes, and shopping lists, the book shows real men everywhere how to losethe 'dad fat' and become buff dads for good.

And also, I'd like to thank you for the lovely packaging, and the extremely fast shipping. The book was exactly as you described it. Happy New Year, if I can say.

    I had a problem after placing my order. I contacted the seller who responded within an hour and resolved the issue with no hassle. This book was a fair price and received today. I failed to notice, but the description did indicate it was missing the dust jacket. I highly recommend this seller.
