Teach Yourself Fitness (Teach Yourself Sports & Games)

Authored by a professional personal trainer and lifestyle coach, this new teach yourself is designed for all those who joined a gym then got disheartened, who don't know where to start with fitness, or who are just too pressed for time to train. Informative, illustrative and inspirational the book covers not only the basics of fitness, but also shows readers how staying in shape can become a part of your daily routine. It features advice on starting off, how to set a realistic program, how to monitor your progress and what to do when the motivation falls off. It offers resources including diagrams, bullet points and chapter summaries, and is a key companion for both those who want to be a little fitter and hardened gymbunnies alike.
