Anyone who wants to be more active but doesn't think they're athletic enough to pull it off will rejoice. Packed with practical information and achievable programs for both aerobic and weight-bearing exercise, this book provides enough great tips to motivate even the most avowed couch potato.
Acclaimed athlete, trainer, and nutrition consultant Ellen Jaffe Jones describes how to develop basic routines for walking, running, biking, swimming, weight lifting, and yoga. She also explains how and why to employ warm-up and cool-down exercises into a workout, gives advice on which gadgets and gear will help improve performance, and shares important tips on how to stay injury-free. There are additional ideas for utilizing the everyday environment from walls to furniture to instantly fit in exercise anywhere, anytime.
A committed vegan for many years, Jones conquered serious health challenges by becoming a runner and adopting a plant-based diet.
