'Every woman's total Fitness Workout for 2012.'

The official women’s fitness book of the London Organising Committee of the Olympic Games 2012 is not a guide to becoming an Olympic champion. Rather, its pages promise to steer you to a new level of personal achievement and glory. It is hoped the prospect of the Olympic flame burning brightly in London 2012 will ignite ambition in everyone of every age to become fitter, stronger and healthier. Each of the exercise programmes in this book is based on conditioning and strengthening moves used by top athletes looking to improve their basic fitness in a range of sports. They are as relevant to you as they are to an Olympic champion and have been modified and formulated into workouts designed to suit everyone from complete beginners to more experienced exercisers.

'How everyday activity will get you fit.'
Physical activity does not require expensive Lycra outfits, a personal trainer, sports drinks or heart rate monitors - it merely involves movement, preferably with gusto, but of any kind. Any activity that gets your muscles working, your joints moving and your heart pumping faster can be considered integrated exercise - so why go the gym when cleaning windows burns 250 calories, washing the car burns 330 and fidgeting alone can gobble 350 calories a day? This fun and practical guide to integrating activity into your daily life has been translated into six languages and has featured in The Times and Daily Mail newspapers.
This book is a must for everyone. ![]()

Bored of aerobics? Had your fill of running hamster style on the treadmill? More people than ever are turning their backs on exercise and discovering the immense physical and mental benefits of the great outdoors. Wild gym workouts can be adrenaline boosting or serenely calming. They can involve mud, sweat and an element of fear or they can offer space for quiet reflection under a big, blue sky. Whatever you look for in a workout, you will find it in this inspiring guide to activities that range from beach running and body boarding to recumbent cycling and rock climbing. Want to get active? Ditch the gym and get outside.
