When Joan Price says, "Yes, You Can!" get in shape, she not only keeps her promise, but gives you a handbook that provides everything you need to know to start and stick with an exercise program for life.I was introduced to Joan at a time when I was physically and emotionally exhausted. Alcoholism was rapidly destroying my body and soul. Joan designed an exercise program that allowed me to gradually replace an unhealthy lifestyle with healthy eating and exercise choices. She truly makes fitness a "treat, not a treatment."Her book provides me with the daily guidance and motivation to maintain new, healthy habits without the expense or intimidation of a health club. For anyone dedicated to physical and emotional recovery, this book is the one to have.
A very readable book about getting and staying in shape

This book is written for everyone who has ever made up excuses why they can't excercise. It is very easy to follow, it encourages rather than discourages. I was lucky enough to meet Joan, and she is an inspiration to me because she, using her own method of exercise, has overcome the results of two very serious auto accidents. She is living proof of the success of her teachings.

Joan Price provides insight and advice on all aspects of travelling the path from less-than-fit to healthy fit. She warns of paths that seem good but lead astray from the goal and waste time. Her coverage of nutrition and exercise is complete yet concise and her knowledge surfs the leading edge of science and research.However the most compelling reason to read Joan's book is the motivation she provides. You will learn of the tragic events in her life and how she used the methods described in her book to recover beyond all her doctor's expectations.Bottom line: Less than $20 and a few hours reading will return a lifetime of benefits starting almost immediately.Yes, I use all her methods and, yes, they work!
Inspiring even lazy old me!

When it's time to exercise, I always have lots of sedentary things to do. But just a glance at the cover, and Joan's inspiration comes through and I am up for a walk around the block, another back strengthening exercise or another ab crunch. Try it, it works!
Help for those without hope.
