The Whitlock Workout cover

Max Whitlock, Team GB's double Olympic gold-medallist, has spent years developing his own fitness regime and now he wants to share his workout secrets with you.

The Whitlock Workout gathers together all of Max's user-friendly core strength exercises and quick workout routines that anybody can try, from simple stretches on your sofa, to those using just a cushion or a pillow, through to more advanced total body exercises which can be taken outside to your local park. Along with nutritional tips and his favourite quick and healthy recipes to help fuel your body, Max shares the secrets of his success and teaches us how to be fit for life.

QUICK WORKOUTS. HEALTHY RECIPES. TOTAL FITNESS.

Max is proof that if you train hard and eat well, you really can achieve amazing results from home. Whether it's a spare 15 minutes in the morning before work, or half an hour at the weekend, The Whitlock Workout is perfect if you are looking to get fit, or want to build your core strength, but don't have the time or money to go to the gym every day.

In The Whitlock Workout Max shares his unique exercises that can be done by anyone anywhere, using body-weight rather than expensive equipment. Its pages are filled with images of the handsome young athlete grappling with sofa cushions in a bid to show us all what is possible using everyday objects (even if we don't have anything approaching his athletic physique). * Daily Express *
