About this listen

Should you avoid red meat and eat only carbs, or avoid carbs and focus on healthy fats? Will 500 crunches a day turn that belly fat into a “six pack”, or should you stick to cardio three times a week? Changing Body Composition Through Diet and Exercise presents the latest scientific research about changing your body composition, along with diet and exercise recommendations in incremental steps that men and women of all ages and fitness levels can follow. From the macro to the molecular, this course takes a science-based view to debunk common weight-loss misconceptions and help you understand your own body better than you ever have.

Led by Professor Michael Ormsbee, Assistant Professor and Interim Director of the Institute of Sports Sciences and Medicine, you will gain access to cutting-edge research that demonstrates what does - and doesn’t - work. The lessons presented in this course can change your life by helping you to feel better, perform better, and be healthier now and into your older years.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

As a woman who has struggled all her life with weight and has tried every possible diet and exercise plan, this audiobook is by far the best, soundest, and down-to-earth advise I have ever come across. I'm slowly starting to implement some of the changes suggested here and I'm feeling better every day, and gaining insight on how my body acts and reacts. Absolutely recommended. If you are reading this, I send you all the best vibes and energy, so you can achieve your goals too!

I liked the course. I will listen to it a second time, with more intent and the accompanying pdf to take notes. I have already started to make changes to my nutrition and exercises routine but I hope that with a second "read" I'll derive even more facts and strategies to better myself. I've listened at 1.20x speed and the narrator was perfectly understandable.

I been studying fitness and nutrition for 11 years and every thing talked about and discussed in this book is true. I have done a lot to my body and can't wait to utilize the more in depth info I got now been basically trail and error but the knowledge gained is great because many conclusions I came to was in the book.
