Perfect Body Diet

I recently picked up a book entitle Women’s Health Perfect Body Diet: The Ultimate Weight Loss and Workout Plan to Drop Stubborn Pounds and Get Fit for Life (Hardcover).

I must have at least 4 dozen books on Fitness, Health and Exercise/Workout related books. So I have seen or read a lot of fitness/health related books. Some books have more substances than others. Some are too dry for my taste and read like a medical/college text books, while others are full of fluff. In any case, I am always reading, researching and learning on how to provide the best fitness and wellness service to my clients.

Women's Health Perfect Body DietThis book is by far one of the best book I have encounter in a long time, especially for my female clients. The book is divided in 3 sections. Each section is very well written and researched.

I am especially impressed with the section on Workout/Exercise Section entitles -Perfect Movement. I highly recommend this book to anyone of my clients to pick up and use as a guide and resource book for their pursuit of wellness. I was able to pick mine up at Big Lots in Geneva, NY last week for $5. One of the best $5 I have ever spent.

I hope to blog more about this book in the next couple of weeks.
