Fit
in 15: 15-Minute Morning Workouts that Balance Cardio, Strength, and
Flexibility
by Steve Stiefel
Paperback: 143 pages ISBN: 1569754713
Publisher: Ulysses Press (March 10, 2005) |
People buy exercise equipment,
join gyms, and sign up for classes, but they still don't exercise. They simply can't find
the time. So author Steve Stiefel has developed a totally unique, full-body fitness
program that even the busiest person can work into a morning schedule.
The Fit in 15 program takes less time than waiting in line for coffee, yet it has the
power to transform one's total fitness. Unlike exercise equipment or repetitive workout
routines that overemphasize one aspect of fitness, the Fit in 15 program varies 15-minute
workouts on different days of the week in order to develop all elements of a healthy,
shapely body: Monday and Friday cover cardio, Tuesday and Thursday are devoted to
strength, Wednesday addresses flexibility, Sunday adds mind - body awareness and Saturday
is left open for the reader to choose a workout that targets an area needing extra
attention, such as muscle building, core strengthening, or fat burning. Fit in 15 provides
a fun and flexible "7 days - 7 workouts" plan that lets readers choose from 55
specially designed 15-minute workouts. |

Fitness
For Dummies
by Suzanne Schlosberg, Liz Neporent
Paperback: 428 pages ISBN: 0764578510
Publisher: For Dummies; 3 edition (March 21, 2005) |
| Each section of the book--whether
dealing with basic fitness issues, cardiovascular training, strength training,
flexibility, joining a gym, or exercising at home--offers a combination of
well-researched, easily understandable information, combined with informed opinion. The
core information, though, is the best reason to buy this edition of Fitness for Dummies.
Exercise science is complicated, but this book makes it as simple--and entertaining--as it
can possibly be. |
