Combining martial arts and cross-training exercise, Anne-Marie Millard`s 15 workouts will appeal to people looking for fun new moves and those who are intimidated by conventional martial arts. Each workout has specific benefits, allowing readers to achieve their personal goals and incorporate new moves as their fitness improves: * using kicks from Tae Kwon Do, a high-energy workout targets the heart and lungs * a balanced workout with fast and slow movements teaches mental and physical control * slow and precise moves from Kung Fu work muscles for strength or endurance * a Ju-Jitsu-inspired workout with floor-based exercises targets the core stability muscles * morning and evening workouts,, with relaxation techniques and self-massage, encourage deep breathing and improved circulation. Readers will also learn the principles of a balanced diet, as well as how to prepare for exercise and heal existing sports injuries. Anne-Marie shows how to burn fat, tone muscle, de-stress and improve stamina through a series of 15 east-meets-west, fusion-style workouts that can be adapted to suit all goals and fitness levels. Fusion Fitness will attract new converts to martial arts, as well as those bored with conventional workouts. An expert in 8 different martial-art styles, as well as western sports science, Anne-Marie fuses these different disciplines in a rounded and fun series of workouts. A journalist-instructor who juggles coaching and a regular column in New Woman, Anne-Marie is skilled at communicating (her enthusiasm, as well as clear work-out instructions and the considerable benefits of her approach to exercise). This is a timely exercise manual that reflects a broad-based surge of interest in all martial-art forms. Enrolment in martial-art classes is rocketing, fuelled in part by Hollywood`s current fascination with all-things `kick-box`. This is a stylish and up-dated introduction to traditional martial arts - modern eye-catching layouts and stylish photography complement Anne-Marie`s fusion-style approach to martial arts instruction.

Reviews

Fonda`s (My Life So Far) latest book on aging is a pleasant departure from the usual celebrity publications. She candidly talks about turning 70 and offers readers a step-by-step guide to create a "life review" to help plan for the road ahead. Her advice for successfully aging in "Act III" of life doesn`t differ from the usual stuff seen on TV shows and in magazines: get enough sleep, don`t abuse alcohol, exercise regularly, etc. Her most insightful contribution is to challenge women to break stereotypes of aging, to contribute to society financially, and to share the kinds of experiences that only seniors can give. It`s an upbeat, informative book that any female boomer would enjoy reading. [See Prepub Alert, 3/7/11.] (c) Copyright 2011. Library Journals LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc.
