Product Description:


The all-new official guide to the Body-for-LIFE Challenge, with success secrets and tips to help you win your own personal Body-for-LIFE Challenge, by Body-for-LIFE Challengers and Champions from the past 10 years.



Champions Body-for-LIFE is not just another diet or fitness book—it's a book of personal transformation. The Body-for-LIFE 12-week journey has changed the lives of millions. What makes it so successful?



It's Simple. It Works.
All it takes:

  • 12 weeks
  • 4 hours of exercise per week
  • 6 small, balanced, and nutritious meals per day—never be hungry again


Now, Body-for-LIFE Champions and Challengers share how they created new and better lives for themselves, simply by following these three rules:

1. Know your reasons for changing (Chapter 2)
2. Write them down (Chapter 3)
3. Get started (Chapter 4)


You do have the power to change your body, your mind, your life.



Read how men and women become Champions as you follow the 12-week story of two Body-for-LIFE Challengers. Mark Unger, a major in the U.S. Marine Corps, and Alexa Adair, a college student, share their personal Journeys of Transformation—from their Decisive Moments, to Starting the Challenge, Week 12, and a year later. Week by week, they chronicle the excitement, the tough moments, and the life-transforming experience of finishing their own personal Challenges.



Science Shows Body-for-LIFE Works



For more than 10 years, millions of people have proven with their real-life transformations that Body-for-LIFE works. Now science shows it works, too! In a clinical study of overweight men and women, the people who followed Body-for-LIFE:

  • Lost approximately twice as much body and belly fat as the control group and moderate exercise higher-carb group
  • Decreased body fat by 21 percent on average
  • Decreased body weight by 11 pounds on average
  • Decreased belly fat by 26 percent on average


Champions Body-for-LIFE is for everyone—whether you're starting your first Body-for-LIFE Challenge or your fourth.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A CATALYST FOR CHANGE
Champions Body for Life was my turning point for what I'm believing will be a lifestyle transformation. Not just for losing weight, but for completely changing my life. I had already read Body for Life by Bill Phillips seven years ago and loved it. I found it easy to read and extremely motavational. However, somehow I was never able to complete a challenge. Over the years, I managed to keep my weight down with running, but without following the weights and nutritional aspects of the Body for ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Champions Body For Life
This is a great book - I expected it to be great as a big fan of the original Body For Life book. I am not disappointed.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - PURE COMMERCIALISM
This book is one HUGE advertisement ploy. Nothing more!

I returned this piece of junk after reading through it. What a joke and insult to the real BFL!

The original Body For Life by Bill Phillips is all you need. Eating For Life is an excellent book of recipes and

BFL for Women by Dr. Pamela Peake is great for a more fine tuned approach for the ladies...but I whole-heartedly disagree with the diets she recommends in her book. It is all carbs, and minimal protein. ... Read More

o goal formulation
o resistance weight training including > of reps and weights

The author indicates that the body needs protein, good fats
and ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - changed my life
Lifting weights was never my thing, but these people's stories inspired me to give it a try (it also taught me that unlike aerobic exercise, lifting weights boost one's metabolism long after you finish.) I now feel stronger and better about myself. I am not a 100% committed champion, but this book has given me the confidence to have entered a Triathlon at the end of September at age 56. I feel like a kid again. I now need to focus on the nutrition advice in this book which seems as though it will enhance ... Read More
