by Wayne Westcott Gary ReinlAs women age, their metabolisms slow, and over a 20-year period, the average woman packs on about 30 pounds of fat. So, in order to lose weight, women turn to diet plans that not only restrict calorie consumption, but also are very difficult to maintain.Now, with Get Stronger, Feel Younger, you can shed the fat that you've accumulated over the years, while regaining and maintaining a healthier body composition and a faster metabolism-without depriving yourself of the foods you love.Acclaimed fitness experts Dr. Wayne Westcott and Gary Reinl present their proven strength training program that has helped over 3,000 research participants shed fat, regain atrophied muscle, and experience dramatic increases in resting metabolic rate. Using cutting-edge exercises and brief high intensity workouts, in as little as 10 weeks you can experience a 15-pound improvement in body composition and physical appearance: up to 12 pounds of fat loss, 3 pounds of new muscle, and a 6 percent increase in resting metabolic rate.There are two programs: the Standard Strength Training Program, which requires only 20 minutes for completion in 2 days a week, and the Advanced Strength-Training Program, which requires 30 minutes 3 days a week. Dr. Westcott and Reinl also provide a natural nutrition plan that not only may enhance your results, but also is realistic and easy to follow. They explain how using brief high-intensity workouts and strength training can transform your body-as well as help prevent diabetes, heart disease, stroke, osteoperosis, low back pain, arthritis, and several types of cancer.

Get Up!: Why Your Chair Is Killing You and What You Can Do About It
by James A. LevineTake a stand against disease, depression, and obesity by ditching the sedentary lifestyle—and becoming actively happy and healthy: “Fascinating research.” —BooklistIt feels great to sink into the sofa after a long day—but spending too much time sitting down can have serious health consequences. Some studies show it can be more dangerous than smoking. But how can you combat the threat in an era of desk jobs, spread-out suburbs, and digital everything?In Get Up!, James A. Levine’s original scientific research shows how today’s chair-based world, in which we no longer use our bodies as they evolved to be used, is having negative consequences on our health, and is a leading cause of diabetes, cancer, and heart disease. In the course of recent history, humans have moved from a primarily active lifestyle to one that is largely sedentary, and this change has reshaped every facet of our lives, from social interaction to classroom design. The good news is that fixing the problem doesn’t require mountain climbing or marathon running. Levine shows how to throw off the shackles of inertia—and reverse these negative trends through simple changes in our daily lives.
