Synopsis People can poke fun at Sly Stallone's thick speech and tough-guy persona all they want--the man loves a good joke--but few can argue that he's got brains behind the brawn, and has realized nearly every dream a poor guy from Hell's Kitchen could have. Here Sly shares all his exercise, diet, and motivational tips, regaling readers with amusing stories culled from his life in the gym, the clubs, and the movie sets. Crisp black and white photographs of the star and his wife accompany each of his prescribed exercises (such as "the broomstick twist"), and there are also photos from his movies (he liked letting himself go to seed for COPLAND). This is a great combination of star scrapbook/memoir/self-help/exercise book, all wrapped up in one powerhouse package, not unlike the star himself.
