The multitalented, ultrafit hip-hop star LL Cool J shares his personal workout regimen in a revolutionary new program that promises to help anyone build muscle and burn fat en rout to 6-pack abs. LL didn't always have a diesel body - he chiseled it the old-fashioned way, with hard work and discipline. Here he shares the secrets of his transformation in a uniquely creative, yet no-nonsense regimen - enlivened with humor and sheer force of personality - that will inspire readers to enjoy working out as never before, while building a body they never thought possible. The book offers four levels of fitness, from Bronze to Platinum, including: - a 4-week beginner's program that takes inches off the waist and boosts energy

- an advanced 9-week program that turns the body into a muscle-building and fat-burning machinge - complete with 6-pack abs and as much energy as LL Cool J
- the hardcore 3-week fat-torching program LL used for the "Control Myself" video - a new level in ripped-to-the-bone fitness and sex appeal

I am in week 15 if this workout currently and it's the best thing I've ever done for my body. It's certainly worth the money. I am seeing more results in these past weeks than I have in the past ten years of lifting and exercising.
If anyone's interested, I created a worksheet/log to track my progress throughout the program. It's complete and very well put together. You can find it here. http://ianrossi.com/platinumworksheet
