5.0 out of 5 stars Inspirational & fun. Stress reliever too., May 12, 2009
By 
This review is from: The Knockout Workout: 3 Winning Steps to Improve Your Body and Your Life (Hardcover)
I like this book so much more than other fitness books because Mia is also a single working mother who knows how hard it is. This book really motivated me to make the time for myself. Her workouts make me feel strong physically and mentally! They're very empowering. A boxer's workout is really a good stress reliever! Plus, her recipes are easy too. A made the enchiladas last night and no one new they were low fat. This is a workout that I can stick to because her plan is reasonable and motivating for total wellness.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Workout and Yummy Meals!, May 13, 2009
This review is from: The Knockout Workout: 3 Winning Steps to Improve Your Body and Your Life (Hardcover)
I am impressed with this book. It's
3 books in one: motivational, exercise, and
nutrition. Like a lot of people I need motivation before exercising, and St. John motivates and encourages you throughout the book. The exercise plan is very detailed and easy to follow. Also, she has really easy to prepare meals, who thought Mexican food could be low fat, low sodium, low calories, and actually taste wonderful?! If you're looking for an exercise book, a motivational book, and a cookbook, buy this book!
