This is the loose-leaf version of Fitness and Wellness: A Way of
Life With HKPropel Access, which offers students a lower-priced
printed version of the text. Other binding options are also
available. With content targeted specifically toward the
college-age population, Fitness and Wellness: A Way of Life With
HKPropel Access presents evidence-based physical and mental health
guidance to point students toward healthy choices that will develop
into healthy lifestyles. Authors Carol K. Armbruster, Ellen M.
Evans, and Catherine M. Laughlin have more than 80 years of
combined health and wellness professional experience, the majority
of which has focused on the college population. This enables them
to present the material in a contemporary manner that is easily
relatable and understood by students. Relevant information on
topics such as cardiovascular exercise, strength training,
stretching, nutrition, weight management, stress management,
substance abuse and addiction, and sexual health will start
students on the path to developing a healthy mind and body, which
can lead to a better quality of life. Additionally, because Fitness
and Wellness: A Way of Life emphasizes behavior modification to
develop desired habits, students are armed with the tools they need
to make healthy lifestyle changes--for both the present and future:
Related online learning tools delivered through HKPropel offer 48

Training section shows exercises to strengthen specific muscles and
explains their importance for common activities Infographics,
evidence-based tables, and figures illustrate and reinforce key
concepts so they are easy to understand The online activities in
HKPropel offer students the unique opportunity to engage directly
with the content and practice the exercises and strategies
presented. In addition to the 48 exercises demonstrating proper
exercise technique, lab activities for each chapter will guide
students in completing individual assessments, setting goals, and
identifying the pros and cons of modifying their behavior. The labs
may be assigned by instructors and tracked within HKPropel, and
chapter quizzes (assessments) that are automatically graded may
also be assigned to gauge student comprehension of the content. The
primary goal of Fitness and Wellness: A Way of Life is to provide a
personal, evidence-based tool to help students embrace living well.
They will learn how to make healthy choices and positive behavior
changes to lead and sustain healthier, happier, and more productive
lives, now and in the future. Note: A code for accessing HKPropel
is included with all new print books.
