()
About this ebook
Valerie Hockert is a certified personal trainer and nutritional consultant. She found that exercise can help reverse the aging process, so has continued to exercise throughout her life. Although as one gets older, one can put less emphasis on cardio and more emphasis on stretching and toning.
This book is all you need to have a great exercise program. Some of the exercises are seen in yoga and Pilates classes, as well as physical therapy classes, so if you are one who has aches and pains (for example, neck, shoulder, knee or back pain), this book will be very beneficial to you.
Exercise plays an essential role in developing a healthy, well-toned body. The Whole Body Tone Up Book, with over 100 exercises, provides a complete, highly effective exercise program that will not only make you feel better physically, but mentally and emotionally as well. You may choose to follow the entire program, or use the unique "crash course" of basic exercises when you are short of time.
If you have problem areas that you want to trim down and tone up, special chapters concentrate on improving the waist, thighs, stomach and back.
Exercise does take determination, but with the clear illustrations and directions, you will find it easy to follow the beneficial exercise programs in The Whole Body Tone Up Book. Have a great workout.
Combine your workout with a good healthy diet for optimum results.

Author's Note
For the past many years I have taught courses in exercise. During that time I've come to realize that many people require a comprehensive exercise program that treats the whole body. Even people who participate in slymnastics or sports are not guaranteed a workout for the entire system. So I devised the Whole Body Tone Up Program.
This program consists of over 100 exercises, including jogging and rope jumping with a smathering of weight lifting included. Some of these exercises are used for warmups in dance; some are poses used in yoga and others are exercises used in physical therapy. Together they comprise a diverse, highly effective exercise plan.
If you've decided to get in shape, there's no better time to begin this program. It will not only help in controlling weight, but a faithfully followed exercise program will always yield a feeling of fitness and vitality.
Exercise is a great aid for weight control. If you have decided to get in shape, now is the time to begin and this is the book for you. An excellent program basically designed with you in mind.

Introduction
Physical fitness is a measure of your body's strength, endurance, agility and coordination. Whether you are physically fit or not, can reflect both in your physical body, and your mental/emotional body.
Results from a faithfully followed exercise program can be dramatic--well worth every stretch and grimace. The greatest investment is determination and the returns are many. Some of the numerous benefits from exercising are: better appearance; more strength and coordination; fewer minor aches and stiffness, less fatigue and, one of the most popular effects--it aids in weight control (That is, if you don't end up in the kitchen after every exercise session!)
The main section of the Whole Body Tone Up Book
includes 100 exercises. It is designed as a comprehensive exercise program. By doing the entire program, you exercise your entire body, and will see the greatest benefits.
If you're more interested in spot exercises, there are specific sections in the book for the waist, stomach, thighs and back. And for those with great expectations but limited time, there's a crash course
at the end of the book.
Go through as many exercises as you can if you're doing the longer section; even though you may not be able to complete all of them the first few times. It's best to start at the beginning each day with at least half hour sessions, if possible.
Go through the whole section each time if you're doing the section for spot exercising. Do each exercise six times in the beginning and work up to 20. (If you're more ambitious than that--go for it!) Start at the beginning of each section each time because the easier ones are first and it
