Fitness manual for women - Product description
The publication is intended for women of all ages as a guide for exercising in fitness centres, but it will also be used by fitness trainers and physiotherapists. When designing fitness programmes for women, it is necessary to accept their biological and psychological specifics, which are described in the introduction of the book.
A separate chapter is devoted to weight reduction, which is the most common motivation for women to exercise. In the practical part, the readers will find a description of 65 exercises suitable for women, instructions on how to build an exercise unit, as well as warnings about mistakes and inappropriate exercises they may encounter during exercise.
The author also focuses on physical activity during pregnancy, transition, and beyond. Dietary modification is also a prerequisite for achieving planned exercise goals, so readers will also find important insights into nutrition programs designed specifically for women, in relation to the exercise program.
