Description

This is an ideal book for women & men who are bewildered about how to get started on becoming fit in today's busy world. In 1996, Surgeon General C. Everett Koop released his revolutionary report on physical activity & its relationship to good health. This report states: "Every American should accumulate 30 minutes or more of moderate intensity physical activity over the course of most days of the week." It was noted that this increase in activity could help lower blood pressure, increase lean muscle mass, reduce body fat & improve general overall health. "Commercial Break" answers the "Why? Where? When? And How?" for someone wanting to make the transition from a sedentary to a more fit lifestyle. "Commercial Break" is a fun, easy-to-do fitness education handbook written in simple language that will provide the reader with the knowledge & encouragement needed to begin a life of improved physical & mental well-being. "Commercial Break" offers 72 pages of colorful cartoons to guide the reader through a comprehensive fitness plan, all of which can be done in the home while watching TV. Topics covered are posture/balance, stretching/flexibility, muscle fitness, cardiovascular conditioning & nutrition, addressing the myths & madness of fats, fibers, water, sugar, alcohol & food shopping. Enjoy a healthy lifestyle while enjoying Commercial Break: The Complete Couch Potato's Guide to Fitness.
