Amazon.com Review
Let's Get Real! by personal trainer, ESPN star, and exercise-video leader Donna Richardson is a gentle and motivating introduction to exercise. Richardson's premise is that if you just start getting active, you'll be taking your important first steps to leading a healthy, positive life, as well as getting in shape. That may mean starting a walking or basic strength-training program--or it may mean doing yard work, outdoor family activities, and even short fitness breaks in the office. The point is to start where you are now and get moving, eventually progressing to your personal best.
"Miss Donna" cuts through the get-fit-quick gimmicks prevalent in the fitness industry today: "There's no such thing as a quick fix. Anyone who says otherwise is peddling false dreams." The truth is that although it takes time and commitment, "you can feel good, look great, and have more energy by making a few minor--and very reasonable--lifestyle changes." She shows you how, with exercises you can do at home, at work, in the gym, and with your children. She emphasizes strength training as well as aerobics and stretching, and also includes solid nutritional information. --Joan Price
