Join the Movement. Ditch the Diet. Who's ready to stop thinking
about weight loss? To free their brain from thoughts about ketones,
calories, and fasting? Who wants life to be more effortless,
energetic, and empowered? Welcome to a refreshing and gloriously
unapologetic conversation about health, fitness and habits.
Award-winning trainer Oonagh Duncan cuts through the wellness
clutter to drop some truth bombs: it might not be six-pack abs
you're looking for-it might be happiness, confidence, and
acceptance. But if losing your belly is what you want, don't let
anyone-including yourself-stop you from going after it. And she'll
show you how to make it happen. There's only one major difference
between those rare unicorns who have managed to lose weight and the
rest of us: their habits. When you acknowledge that following a
diet is not getting you anywhere, and you make a few small changes
to your everyday routine, you'll find yourself happier and healthy
as f*ck.
This is a distinctive style of exercise that combines the benefits
of yoga and Pilates. You can rediscover the strength and
flexibility of your body, and improve your stamina and balance, to
achieve an optimum level of fitness. You can transform the shape of
your body by strengthening your core muscles to create your own
'body beautiful'. Dynamic Pilates sequences are graded to suit your
energy levels at different times of the day. Yoga postures show
easy and more advanced variations, to suit your level of
flexibility. It is fully illustrated with over 325 practical
photographs that clearly demonstrate the postures. This book fuses
the stretching and balancing of yoga, and the muscle control
demanded by the technique of Pilates, to create a new style of
practice that begins with the core strength of the body. The main
part of the book is devoted to the individual yoga-Pilates
postures, supplemented with advice on extending or moderating them.
The postures are then brought together in a series of sequences
devised by the author for warming-up, to aid relaxation, help
energize, and increase strength and body awareness. Fully
illustrated, with step-by-step sequences, this book is an expert
guide to an exciting fusion of two influential health disciplines,
and is for anyone interested in increasing their fitness levels,
and enhancing an overall sense of wellbeing.
