Strong women stay slim

by Miriam E. Nelson

Strong Women Stay Slim is the first book to combine the extraordinary fat-fighting power of strength training with a safe, medically proven weight-loss program. Scientific research has shown that strength training increases metabolism-a key to permanent weight loss- by as much as 15 percent. What is more, Tufts University research comparing women who followed identical diet plans found that the strength-training group lost 44 percent more fat than the diet-only group. No matter what your age or fitness level, you can start tomorrow with six simple, no-sweat exercises you can do at home or in the office. You'll feel stronger, more energetic, and vital almost immediately. And after just ten weeks of easy, painless changes you'll be astonished at how far you've come. Whether you're fighting a few stubborn pounds, struggling with post-pregnancy weight gain, or battling a lifelong weight problem, Strong Women Stay Slim has everything you need.
