Favorite Fitness Books

October 9, 2010

I was organizing my book shelf and came across my section of fitness books and I figured I should share a stack of my favorites! There are some great fitness books out there but these are the ones I have gotten the most use of.

 

Women’s Health Big Book of Exercises

 

The Women's Health Big Book of Exercises: Four Weeks to a Leaner, Sexier, Healthier YOU!

 

This has the most comprehensive list of exercises and some great programs. The best part of the book is the section on how to create your own programs with a formula for full body workouts.

 

The New Rules of Lifting for Women

 

The New Rules of Lifting for Women: Lift Like a Man, Look Like a Goddess

 

The best workout book, it teaches you that lifting is good for you and will change your body. Principles of hard workouts and lifting as heavy as you can.

 

 

Maximum Strength

 

Maximum Strength: Get Your Strongest Body in 16 Weeks with the Ultimate Weight-Training Program

 

 

A great program for gaining strength. Strong women are sexy :)

 

 

101 Workouts for Women

 

101 Workouts for Women: Everything You Need to Get a Lean, Strong and Fit Physique

 

Great for those who get bored easily in the gym, this will keep you busy for years.

 

Anatomy of Yoga

 

Anatomy of Yoga: An Instructor's Inside Guide to Improving Your Poses

 

 

This best book I have seen for showing you the postures and how they work your muscles. I often reference this book after a class when I find myself questions some of the poses.

 

 

 

Do you have a favorite fitness book?

I’ve never purchased fitness books, but would love to read a few of those. I only started weight lifting 3 years ago (wish I would have sooner) and now LOVE it, and want to learn more.
