If you're like most people, your life is so hectic that it's hard to
imagine squeezing in time for daily exercise. The good news is that
you can get fit without an expensive gym membership or rigorous
workout schedule. New research proves that you can "sneak up" on
fitness by grabbing a little time here and there throughout the day
so you total at least thirty minutes of moderate activity on
most days. The American Heart Association's Fitting in Fitness
guide will show you how to work spurts of activity into the way you
live right now. Those few minutes can add up to huge rewards,
including a stronger heart and bones, higher energy levels, better
weight control, and more.

Fitness Over Fifty is the National Institute on Aging's guide to
getting started. For the most part, when older people lose their
ability to do things on their own, it doesn't happen just because
they have aged. More likely, it is because they have become
inactive. Fitness Over Fifty offers practical advice about
the four areas that are important for staying healthy and
independent: endurance, strength, balance, and flexibility. 200 b/w

the key to attaining a beautiful, defined, healthy figure. By

The Body Sculpting Bible for Women demonstrates that women

Get bigger biceps, broad shoulders, a
bigger bench press, powerful legs, cut abs . . .
without ever leaving your home!
The body you want, in the space you have.
The strength you want, with the equipment you have.
The muscles you want, in the time you have.
You don't need to join a gym to get in shape. In fact, for a lot of
guys, the gym is an impediment to getting in shape. The crowds, the
inconvenience, the intimidation, the time, the commute-- by the time
you add it all up, you could end up investing 2 hours to get 45
minutes of exercise.
No matter how little space you have, no matter how little equipment
you have, no matter how little time you have, you can get the
results you want without stepping inside a gym. |
I found this book to be a great overview of fitness. The authors
base their information on medical literature, but distill it to a
level useful to the general public. Definitely worth getting.
