The workout examples in the book are more full body routines. I looked to established trainers to develop more targeted (legs, upper body) workouts like Jeff Cavaliere at AthleanX and then just plugged in the exercises into the 5-2 structure. In the opening scene of Casino Royale he had to jump over a sandpit, on a roof, through a car, then sprint, climb over a fence and up a crane … so I tried to mimic the scene with an assault course.” Michael O’Mara Books has snapped up The 10-Week Intelligent Fitness Challenge: The Ultimate Workout Programme from Hollywood’s Most In-demand Trainer, by personal trainer and former marine, Simon Waterson. Thankfully, Triumph Books came in clutch by kindly gifting us with this awesome training manual in exchange for an honest review! My For more than 25 years, Simon Waterson has gotten my hubby's favorite Hollywood A-list actors into top physical shape. So, when he saw that this book was coming out, he was beyond excited, and I have to admit, so was I! I mean anyone who helped Chris Evans get into that beautiful shape has to be amazing, right?! But not only him... we're talkin' Benedict Cumberbatch, Daniel Craig, Chris Pratt, Léa Seydoux, John Boyega, Blake Lively, Jake Gyllenhaal, Harrison Ford, John Krasinski... and more!

You’re never going to beat bodyweight exercises – do varied push-ups: very wide, then very narrow ones, mountain climber push-ups (pushing alternating knees across the body as you perform each up and down movement), and Spiderman push-ups (lifting alternate knees high to the shoulder as you push yourself up and down – resembling the superhero scaling a wall). That would cover triceps, chest, core and shoulders.”

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. It’s possible to make huge advances in your strength and general fitness using nothing more than your own body. Weights have their benefits but do not underestimate the power of simply battling gravity, Waterson says. From 3.30 a.m. training sessions in the desert with Jake Gyllenhaal to virtual workouts with Bryce Dallas Howard, Simon reveals the real training programs he used to take these actors to peak physical health. Ironically, I have no interest in training like a movie star or doing some intense 10 week boot camp. So, what’s with the 5 stars, Bill? Read on.

The best thing is that he makes it so doable for all of us common folk - cuz I can tell you, I ain't no Hollywood star that has the time and resources to focus all my energy on fitness. Thankfully, this trainer understands that and provides a straightforward, effective solution! 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 Weisz Stansall said: “ The 10-Week Intelligent Fitness Challenge is the perfect follow-up to Simon’s first book, Intelligent Fitness, which laid the groundwork for his unique and highly effective philosophy on health and wellbeing. His dedication to his clients and his meticulous approach to their programmes has resulted in his huge popularity within the film industry, with some of the world’s biggest actors returning to work with him again and again. We’re really excited to share his much-coveted exercises and techniques with everyone looking to improve their health, whatever their fitness level.”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.
