About this deal

A great book with lots of helpful tips and insights. As a trainee personal trainer there is a lot I will take from this book. Hiddleston said: “For me, training with Simon is a crucial part of preparing for any action role – this 10-week programme is a fantastic example of Simon’s thoughtful and effective approach to fitness.” A lot of great advice, even if you “know” most of it - it’s great to always get a reminder. A lot of great advice to not only “get you in shape”, but “live a life where feel great over looking great”. Good book for beginners. This is a good principle: “train for performance, not aesthetics. The aesthetics will follow”

The core of Waterson’s approach is to mix short bursts of cardiovascular exercise with resistance training, in a ratio of five strength moves to two minutes of cardio. The method, he says, which is based on his training in the military, is hugely versatile. Good general info and examples of individual workouts but I would have liked to have seen an overview of how each workout fits into the big picture of the actors program. For example Daniel Craig's upper body workout was shown as 2 days per week but it wasn't explained how this fits into Daniels rest of his program. I.e. how many days lower body? How many days on other activities such as recovery, martial arts, stunt training etc. This was perpetuated throughout. Meredith has genuinely changed my life. I was always unhappy with my weight, tried every diet ever but Meredith taught me how to make real sustainable change by talking about things I’d never considered as issues. I never thought I’d get to this point but she is so amazing in the way she explains things, she’s also so human in her approach and always gives me a laugh, even when I’m not in the mood at all. With Simon, I understood that in film, the work and preparation you have to do before starting a shoot is just as important as what happens in front of the camera. The preparation training with Simon is essential for me. Filming a movie is like running a marathon – if you don’t arrive well prepared at the starting point, you will pay for it at the end.', Diego Luna Simon is a no-nonsense trainer – without pretension. He has an incredible wealth of experience. What he says makes sense and his workouts just work.' Rachel WeiszSimon Waterson's job is to turn actors into athletes. Now you can learn how to transform your fitness and wellbeing with the film industry's most in-demand trainer.

Now, Simon Waterson, the celebrity personal trainer and former marine who built the uber-Bond, has created a fitness programme for the rest of us. The 10-Week Intelligent Fitness Challenge is a time-efficient, easy-to-follow plan that can transform any of us into physical specimens fit to defend the world from evil – and look better on the beach this summer. Waterson’s clients include actors such as Daniel Craig, who trained with him for his role as James Bond in five films, Hiddleston for Loki, Chris Evans for the role of Captain America, Chris Pratt for “Guardians of the Galaxy”, Thandiwe Newton and John Boyega for the Star Wars films, and Diego Luna for “Andor”. On the day of the famous swimming scene, Waterson knew he and Craig had done something very special. Jon has been an inspirational force for me. With a mixture of interval training as well as strength and conditioning exercise, I have noticed my body to be firmer, stronger and leaner."Founded by David Wells in 1996, as a personal training company, Intelligent Fitness has evolved to deliver an unrivalled range of professional instructor training. We have developed an intelligent approach to exercise training for health and performance. Our training programmes have been developed for those who are seeking a scientific, best practice and common sense approach to their professional development. I enjoyed reading this book. It’s a mixture of practical advice about workouts and a philosophy for improving (physical) performance. These sections are nicely written in an easy to understand voice. Age is no barrier to developing an assassin-worthy body, he says. When Daniel Craig filmed Casino Royal he was in his thirties, and now 55, he still looks good.
