The 15-Minute Fitness Series gives readers all the tools they need to squeeze regular exercise sessions into their lives. Here are fast, effective mini-workouts presented in an easy-to-use format with at-a-glance summaries to kickstart them on the road to fitness. Stretching is fantastic addition to the series. There are three elements to the package. The first consists of four complete miniworkouts at-a-glance, each one with its own fold-out chart, which are evenly distributed throughout the book. All the reader needs to do is to start exercising. The second shows the exercises again with full instructions and annotation in the accompanying pages of the book. This enables readers to check that they are doing the exercises shown in the at-a-glance charts correctly and to perfect their technique. This takes readers through the four 15-minute sequences featured in the book, giving readers the added confidence to start, and continue, exercising. Each book is written by an expert in their field; their brief, to provide the best "express" home workouts using the absolute minimum of equipment. The effectiveness of the 15-minute exercise period is backed by scientific evidence. Done consistently over time, smaller but regular exercise sessions bring real benefits. The 15-minute Fitness Series makes the most of the time available, and is designed to be both effective and enjoyable. Why waste your time with tedious gym sessions, when you can get a targeted express workout with the 15 Minute Stretching Workout? This clever package gives you four expertly designed 15-minute stretching workouts suitable for all levels of fitness.
