Pictures and descriptions make it easy--and fun!
I won't lie--I hate going to the gym. So I am a big fan of any exercise I can do at home. I have been wanting to find exercises I could do from home without a lot of bulky equipment (I'm in a small apartment--no room for anything fancy). So, when I saw this book, I picked it up on a whim and wow--so glad I did! The book does a fantastic job of defining all the terminology upfront so that once you get into the exercise portion, you have a clear understanding of what they are asking you to do. They even give a small lesson on the different muscles you'll be targeting with the exercises. I am not a fitness guru, so I am grateful that Ryan George wrote it in language that could be understood by us novices! The explanations for each exercise are well-written, clear, concise and there are pictures depicting each one--which is so helpful. I always check the picture to make sure I am doing it right. I feel this book is almost like having your own personal trainer right next to you--it has made exercising, at my own speed, fun again. Highly recommend it! Hoping the author comes out with more of these! Read more
