Book Reviews of Fantastic Water Workouts - 2nd Edition
Book Review: A Must for Fitness Professionals
Summary: 5 Stars
The first addition of the book was translated into 4-5 different languages and was used by professionals and lay individuals to better their water fitness efforts. The new edition moves the world of water workouts to a new level.
What is exciting about this book are not only the new routines that MaryBeth has added, but also the pictures that will help readers understand how correctly do the moves and routines. Much of the experimentation for this book was worked out at our lake house 60 minutes outside of Houston, Texas on a spring fed lake called Lake Mount Pleasant. I have great memories of walking out and finding MaryBeth in the water working on new routines. I have never been a true water person, but as she developed new moves and routines, I became the student and after a summer of water fun - I'm a believer!
At 60, running is out of the question and I still inline skate, but I'm just not as daring on wet days as I was years ago. MaryBeth and I walk almost everyday, but my weekend water workouts have become a time of pure fun and have strengthened muscles I'd forgotten about.
If you are a fitness trainer / coach - this is a must for your professional collection. If you are looking for a way to get and stay in shape - this book will walk you through the necessary steps to be successful. I broke my back when I was 27 and now after working with MaryBeth in the water I wished someone had introduced me to water workouts earlier in life. Those of us that are physically challenged this book also provides information and ideas to make our workouts really work and take away much of our pain.
Thanks MaryBeth for taking the time from your consulting practice to "re-energize" the world of water workouts!
