Excellent

This book is excellent! I'm using almost on a daily basis. I would highly recommend it.

Get Started !

I am so glad I started with the book before moving on to the DVD. I was able to learn all the exercises and keep up with the DVD better than I otherwise would have. After two weeks with this book, I felt more limber and like I was really doing something good for me. After two months people started to notice-- I was toning up. These exercises really work for quick results-- and it's not too big of a time commitment. I'm working out with Minna Lessig 20 to 30 minutes a day, 5 times week. After 10 months, I can definately say I love the improvement it's made.

Remodel Your Body

As Summer approaches, there's no better time to freshen up your workout. With this in mind - Tank Top Arms, Bikini Belly, Boy Shorts Bottom is as fresh as it gets. Created by sought-after personal trainer and fitness supermodel, Minna Lessig, this book takes you step-by-step through a fabulous fitness makeover. Once committed, she'll show you how to use her book as your training manual. Too, you'll choose from workout options for every fitness level - all without stealing precious time. This Spring why not let Lessig help you give your fitness program an overhaul? Here's 5 simple ways you can use her book to get your body in fighting shape just in time for Summer. One: Freshen Up Your Warm Up and Stretching Routines: First, let Lessig walk you through several of her 3 minute warm-up routines. You will have the opportunity to choose your favorite based on preference for general exercise or a more delicate Yoga and Pilates style. As you already know, a solid warm up is your most important base-line for a fluid, injury-free workout program. Therefore, regardless of how long you've been working out, it never hurts to take the time to revisit your pre and post workout exercises. That said, you will also want to take time to review Lessig's stretching program - this will give you stretching options for in-between exercises; an important step in depleting the lactic acid that can lead to days of muscle soreness. Two: Remodel Your Cardio Fitness Routine: Next up: A makeover to your cardio program. Here Lessig gives you an array of options, as well. Begin simply by choosing exercises you like and will stick to. You will also find her time suggestions similar to what you probably already know: perform one half-hour cardio program, three to four times a week. Moreover, if you're like me and the treadmill is your choice for cardio - you're in luck. Here, Lessig helps us give our workouts a fresh look. As an example, I've given my cardio workout a spring cleaning using the interval program she suggests: a tri-weekly, half-hour routine adjusting speed intensity in an interval format. If you've never tried interval training before, its great for burning calories and fat. In addition, if you are in a time pinch, interval training has all the trappings: its fast, easy and fun. Three: Overhaul Your Resistance Training Workout: For my first week with Lessig's program, I devoted much time to learning and becoming comfortable with my new cardio workout. By the second week, however, I was ready to add some resistance training to the mix. Lessig's got it covered. What's more; she gives options based on one's current fitness level: Novice, Skilled or Master. For me, I took the middle path approach to the program. Using the Training Log pages Lessig provides, I carefully chose my daily routines for one month based on her "Skilled" resistance training suggestions. Once I made the commitment to this exercise program, I spent the next week going t
