Self-Help Fitness
People today are spending more time at work and less time
being active, whether by sitting in front of a computer all
day or in a car battling grueling traffic-or both! Working
on the Ball solves this problem by providing an innovative,
playful approach to fitness, no gym shoes or expensive club
membership required. Authors Jane Clapp and Sarah
Robichaud, both fitness professionals, don't take
themselves-or readers-too seriously. They offer a fun,
reasonable routine that any office worker can follow from
day one. Hour by hour, the authors take readers
through a full day of 'active sitting,' using a stability
ball as a chair, and provide guidance for making healthy
choices in the workplace. Also included are
photographs to help illustrate each exercise and plenty of
encouragement, motivation, and coaching. The authors even
offer tips on after-work stress management and other health
subjects. Among the book's topics are: -
evaluating your posture /LI>
- choosing a ball
- stability ball safety
- avoiding eye strain
and "brain drain"
- desk setup
- healthy
snacking
Working on the Ball makes a great gift
or a quick pick-me-up for oneself.
