Description: With Lean in 15 I’m going to show you that you can have a busy job and family life and still find the time to stay lean… This phase – The Shape Plan – is all about shaping the body by building lean muscle with resistance training. Joe Wicks, ‘ The Body Coach’, returns after the overwhelming success of his first book, Lean in 15, with 100 new recipes and a detailed outline of the 90-Day Shift, Shape and Sustain programme, which he developed to see people lean up and lose weight. Resistance training takes a key role in this new instalment, and weight sessions are mixed with high-intensity interval training (HIIT) to increase both lean muscle mass and metabolism. Deprivation and calorie counting are a no-no on this plan, as is what Wicks calls ‘the sad step’ (scales), while rest days are crucial. With quick, achievable, affordable meals, including deliciously tempting cheesy chicken mushrooms and prawn and courgette linguini the Lean in 15 method has never looked so tempting.

Review: The book has some very nice dishes but beware if you are vegetarian; there seems to be only a couple of smoothie recipes and one other main meal which are meat free. The majority of the recipes are for one person, so if you are in a family/couple it's a bit of a faff to have to double/triple the portions. He seems to be an advocate of wacking everything under the grill on 'high' not great if your grill is like mine and tends to smoke a lot at that level (I tended to put things in the oven instead). Many of the portion sizes seem very large (100g of oats for one person for breakfast?!) I think he is cooking from the perspective of a young male, so I had to tweak a lot of the recipes to reduce portion sizes. The introduction does say that if you fail to lose weight after a month to reduce the portion sizes for your particular needs. The exercises...... I like to think that I'm moderately fit for a mid forties woman; have done Davina, some gentle jogging, do the workouts from darebee.com and mow the grass and run around after two kids. Many of the exercise shown are with barbells, wonder how many women (or men) have those? and no core exercises are shown which was disappointing, so found myself tagging sit ups onto the end of a workout. However, the suggested 4x a week workout proved too much for me and I suffered persistent insomnia three days after my regime started. Research suggested this was due to over training and I should have started gradually or to cut back to no more than 2-3 times a week. I will continue to dip in and out of the recipes (the red lentil chicken curry was amazing) and continue with the reduced carb principles on days that I am less active, but from my point of view it looks like I'll be dusting off the Davina DVD again!
