Quick Fit takes no more time than a coffee break, yet it provides a complete workout: Ten minutes of aerobic activity; four minutes of strengthening exercises; one minute of stretches. This program is perfect for anyone with a hectic, demanding schedule. Can 15 minutes really make a difference? Yes, according to mounting research evidence. Quick Fit is safe -- and it's effective.
This book provides everything you need to begin a more active lifestyle:
• Fully illustrated step-by-step instructions, with simple self-tests to help you customize • Exciting new information about the surprising benefits of brief workouts • Innovative suggestions for getting started -- and sticking with it • Motivating quotes from men and women who are using Quick Fit successfully

Tom Cove Vice president of SGMA International (Sporting Goods Manufacturers Association) We have extensive scientific evidence that exercise brings tremendous improvements in health and quality of life. But we know much less about how to get everyone to do it. Quick Fit is exciting because it makes exercise accessible. This program will change people's lives.
