I Love the Smell of Book Sales in the Morning

Today is Opening Day for my new book with Alwyn Cosgrove, The New Rules of Lifting for Abs. I’m not sure if it’s in every bookstore yet, and Amazon still lists it as available for pre-order (the official release date is December 30, while I’m writing this on the 29th). But Amazon is telling those who pre-ordered that their copies are on the way, and friends and colleagues who received advance copies are posting their reviews, so it feels close enough to the real thing.

Among the generous and enthusiastic endorsements for the new book:

* Craig Ballantyne lists his three favorite exercises from Alwyn’s programs.

* BJ Gaddour of Workout Muse gives the book a thumbs-up. (Also check out BJ’s interview with Alwyn.)

* One of the most pleasant surprises came from this success story posted on the Future Redbirds baseball site by an author who calls himself Azruavatar. I’ve read hundreds of his posts over the years on FR and Viva El Birdos, another baseball site. But we’d never corresponded, and I didn’t know he had read and used the original NROL with such great results. (He reports that he lost the equivalent of a 7-year-old, or about 50 pounds.)

Many thanks to all those who’re helping us get the word out about NROL for Abs, and cheers to all who have bought the books and used Alwyn’s programs to improve their health, fitness, and physique.
