'Fifteen minutes exercise a day that can change your life' is the
subtitle of this remarkable book, written as part of a commitment
the author made to change women's lives after the untimely death of
her mother. Brill is confident and forthright in her approach to
the point that one can only marvel at her commitment and sincerity.
With such a worthy starting point, this book differs from other
exercise and lifestyle books by concentrating on simple, easily
achievable changes rather than repetitive movements and exercise
regimes. It also, unashamedly, targets women. There is a hint early
on that everyone can benefit from following the programme, but it
soon becomes clear that Brill's primary function in life is to help
improve the lifestyle of womankind - and those of us who have long
suspected that abdominal exercises only seem to help develop a male
stomach will be delighted that someone has the nerve to say it!
Brill takes the reader through the 'core goals' in the first
chapter in order to introduce reasons for embarking on her courses
of action. Her objective - 'teach yourself to feel better' - is
simply and clearly stated, and the rest of the book enlarges on
this and gives straightforward ways to achieve it. There is nothing
fancy in the photography either - the impression given is that more
money was spent on the research side than on the marketing side,
and to some extent this is rather comforting. Of course, as with
all such books the proof is in the doing. Thankfully we need only
15 minutes per day to find out whether or not Brill is right!
(Kirkus UK)
Peggy Brill understands that being a woman equals being busy, with the demands of family, career, friends, homemaking, commuting etc. etc. Realistically the way we live isn't going to change but we can change how we use and take care of our bodies. She believes the Core Programme is a daily investment for lifelong health. The benefits include getting rid of aches and pains, beating tiredness, boosting day-long energy, building strength and stamina and looking and feeling good.
The Core Programme has been specifically evolved for women, unlike other fitness regimes designed for the male physique which may even damage women. It will help build strength in the core of a woman's body: the neck, back, shoulders, pelvis, abdomen and hips. Each exercise is illustrated with detailed photographs and reader self-tests throughout help women identify their own core needs and track improvement. Dozens of case histories are included, illustrating both the common problems women face and the near-instant benefits of this simple programme.
