if anyone's interested this months FHM is running a competition with subway to win a personal training session with Simon Waterson Daniel's trainer, and a stay at a five star hotel
I bought a used copy of Waterson's book, "The Commando Workout" on Amazon and am finishing up the 28 day program this week. It's intense! The first week acclimates you to the type of lifting you'll be doing, the second and third focus on muscle building and the last on high-level cardio to burn fat. I don't drip as much sweat on the morning runs as I did during the evening cardio/weight workout. Highly recommended!
Much has been said about DC's shape, does anyone know what his suit measurements are now? I have guessed that Brosnan's slim shape in Goldeneye at around 40" Chest and 34" waist (so says Q anyway), he later seemed to beef up in TND perhaps to a 42/44 chest and then go slimmer again in TWINE.
Connery also put on weight during the series and went from a 40" chest in Dr. No to a 44" chest in Diamonds. God knows what his waist was at this time, but he looked overweight!
Anyone with any info on the actors suit measurements please post a reply.
Cheers!
Borders still hasn't gotten their finger out regarding my special order of Waterson's book. Would you mind sending the info to me? Thanks in advance, you're saving me some $!

When I inquired at Borders they said it wasn't available/not/never-in-print in the US. I ended up getting a copy from an Amazon Z-shop.
Thanks for the information. I think they actually ordered his other book: "The 30-Minute-A-Day Body Challenge" by mistake. I looked on Amazon, but there are only two copies. One for $66.95 or one for $99.99 - USED! Someone please shoot me an email! Best regards.

WHOA!!! Apparently the secret's out and this book has become "rare Bond memorabilia". I think I paid $15-$20 for it. A demand-driven market, innit?
YOU eat proteins, carbohydrates, fruit or vegetables at each meal using portion control. There is no calorie or carb counting and no weighing or measuring - just use your hand! Remember the three golden rules:
1 A protein serving (meat, fish, nuts) should be no larger than the flat of your palm.
2 A fruit or vegetable serving should be no larger than your cupped hand.
3 A carbohydrate (potatoes, wholemeal bread, brown rice or wholemeal pasta) serving should be no larger than your fist. And you MUST make sure you eat FIVE servings of fruit and vegetables every day.
Simon says: "Always have three meals a day and up to two snacks. Never deprive yourself - if you want a glass of wine have one, just don't have 10.
"Try not to eat less than two hours before you go to bed as the body is less active at night and won't burn the food off as fast."
On the right is a selection of easy-to-follow menu plans to help you get started.
HOW THE EXERCISE PLAN WORKS
TO get the best diet result you need to exercise. Simon has devised a simple plan which you can do at home for fast results.
Follow the 30-minute exercise programme just four times a week. The best time to exercise is in the morning before you have breakfast as the body will burn up fat instead of the food you have just eaten. If you can't face it that early, working out any time of day will be beneficial.
Make sure you drink plenty of water - about two litres a day - and keep some on hand when you work out. Simon says: "This programme is designed so you can carry it out in your own home, or in the garden. You must remember to work at your own level. The key to fitness is continuity."
ALWAYS consult your doctor before starting a diet.

PROTEIN
NEEDED for muscle growth - people who work out need more than inactive people. With each main meal make sure you eat lean protein (lean meat, chicken, fish or cottage cheese). Plant proteins (pulses, cereals, nuts) must be combined with a carbohydrate to get the maximum benefit from them. So eat your beans on toast and lentils with rice or peanut butter on bread.
CARBS, FRUIT, VEG
IT'S important to eat wholemeal bread, brown rice, potatoes and wholemeal pasta as carbohydrates are needed for energy. Avoid white bread and white bread products such as bread sticks and pizza bases, as they have limited nutritional value. It's also essential to eat five portions of fruit and veg a day.
FATS
HEALTHY fats are needed for healthy tissue - but they must be the right fats. These are monosaturated (avocados, olive oil, nuts, seeds and rape seed) and omega 3 (oily fish, walnuts and eggs). Avoid fatty meat, full-fat dairy products, butter, margarine, low-fat spreads, pastries, pies, biscuits, cereal bars, breakfast bars, cakes, ice cream desserts and puddings.
I think I may have missed some of you, but can't tell for sure because there have been so many. Please instant message me. It's easier for me to sort it all out that way.
Hi, I'm a newcomer. I'm 24 years old and exercising since 2 years. I achieved good results but I'm not as big as Craig. I'm 1m80 and 74 kg. I would like to have a look to the workout so if anyone could send it to me I would appreciate it.
Here is my e-mail address : p.domig@hotmail.com
And for the nutrition plan I read I would like to give my advice :
The secret for more muscles is NOT a lot of proteins. 1.1 gr. per 1 kg is enough (so if you have 70 kg 80 gr. of proteins is enough, if you eat more you will not increase your muscles but your body fat)
You need to eat a lot of fruits (bananas are very good because they have a lot of vitamins)
B12 vitamin is essential, you can find it in milk and meat.
The sun as well is important, it seems silly but you need it to fix the protein.
The essential part of a diet is eat a lot of carbohydrats, a lot and lot pastas, rice, cereals (potatoes are poor in carbohydrats) and rice. If you eat a lot of them you will see your muscles becoming bigger during the weight training. That's the secret.
If anyone has a question I have good knowledge about nutrition but English is not my mothertongue. I will reply toi every e-mail.
I too would quite like a copy of the workout from highhopes...or anyone else who happens to have it by now. If someone could email it to me I would be greatful, tuxedo_mask6@hotmail.com
I have been exercising for 5 years now and studied sports science at college so am always interested in the techniques actors and actresses use to get into shape for film roles!
