Into the book
Let us be your workout buddy!
This book can be a friend to anyone who hesitates at the gym door.
In fact, all of the effective beginner routines I've shared with my members are included in the webtoon.
It is designed with a friendly conversational tone instead of difficult terms, and with beginner-level routines instead of complex movements, with the mindset of 'doing it together, not alone.'
If you understand and master the basic routines in this book, you will no longer find it boring to exercise alone. If you can invest just 50 minutes as instructed in the book, I am confident that it will be of great help in your future diet and body building.
