Body For Life For Women.
Dr. Pamela Peeke's much anticipated book Body For Life For Women has finally arrived in the bookstores. It's been less than a week since its official release and already the book is sparking a lot of discussion in the close knit BFL community.
As you may know reviews are popping up on the Body For Life Guestbook.
Some longtime BFL'ers argue the Doctor's book strays to much from Bill Phillip's original message. One mentions the simplicity of the first book and discribes Peeke's efforts as much too complicated. Another notes most of the success stories featured in Dr. Peeke's book transformed their bodies using Bill's program. They fear readers of this new book might get the impression these women owe their success to Dr. Peeke's "For Women" program.
These discussions are part of what I love about the BFL program. Anyone who has found success using Bill's program feels as if they have a personal stake in keeping it clean. We have done it by the book (the original book) and we have bought copies for friends and family and watched in awe as they have undegone their own transformations. It's not surprising that we are eager and willing to defend Bill's way against any other way.
But looking at the big picture...I can't help but wonder if there are many, many women out there who have picked up Bill's book and felt intimidated by his muscles and the discipline required to mount a "clean and perfect" 12 weeks.
Maybe, just maybe.... Dr. Peeke's book will seem a bit more "user friendly" for these women. Maybe they will buy the book and TRY the program...instead of searching for yet another cure to their obesity related problems.
For those who do buy Dr. Peeke's book and go on to master their first challenge...its quite possible they will want to "raise the bar" and decide to reach a little higher.
The way I see it....EAS has lots of great products that have various purposes.
Reading the labels you can see that Body For Life Ready to Drinks are different from AdvantEdge Ready to Drinks, AdvantEdge R.T.D.'s are different from Myoplex Carb Sense...from Myoplex Orginal and so on and so on.
Each product acts as a "conduit" moving us into a healthier lifestyle. As we progress we may choose to raise the bar and select a different product that better suits our needs.
For the sake of argument...how about we view Dr. Peeke's new book a "conduit" to a healthier lifestyle for women with unique needs.
As its readers progress into their healthier lifestyle they may well choose to raise the bar and move to a different product (Bill's Originial Book.)
The bottom Line...In order to solve this Nation's Obesity Epidemic we have to get people into the tent. Once they get inside...we BFL oldtimers will be there to greet them and provide the knowledge they need....and a hand so they can reach even higher!

Hi CC...I am still pretty faithful to the BFL work outs. What's really great here is when your muscles are ready you can lift more weights using the same 12,10,8,6,12, 12 formula. So unless you run out of weights...you can always do this program. Its good tho to change your exercises up a little bit. The same goes for cardio. You can always increase the incline on the treadmill and the speeds as you progress so even though you are still doing just 20 minutes you are always reaching higher.
Hope this helps.
Michelle.
