Great section with Chair Exercises April 6, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This book has many great parts it is hard to name them all. The best part is the section that shows how you can exercise in a chair. This is great to do to the TV, and if you have problems with your feet. It has some weight resistance as well as stretching exercise.
Another great feature are the hints to get more exercise doing the things you normally do throughout the day. Highly recommend.
'Must' reading for anyone diagnosed with diabetes who finds the thought of daily exercise intimidating or unappealing. January 4, 2007
18 out of 19 found this review helpful
One of the most difficult life-style changes that the newly diagnosed diabetic must deal with is that of proper, regular exercise. Exercise, along with an appropriate diet, blood sugar level monitoring, and medications, is an essential part of diabetes self-care. Exercise also helps the diabetic cope with this life-time disability both emotionally and physically. Now the American Diabetes Association has published a newly expanded and updated second edition of "The 'I Hate To Exercise' Book" by Charlotte Hayes, a nutrition and fitness consultant who has specialized in diabetes management and education for the last seventeen years. Readers will discover how to ease their way into more daily physical activity; build an active lifestyle based on their own daily routines; create fun low-impact walking programs; set realistic exercise goals, chart them, and so much more. Just beginning with five minutes a day, even the most sedentary diabetic will be able to lift their mood, lighten their weight, burn calories while building muscle, reduce stress levels, acquire more energy, look and feel great, and acquire the motivation to pursue their diabetic self-care practices with a growing satisfaction. "The 'Hate To Exercise" Book" should be considered 'must' reading for anyone diagnosed with diabetes who finds the thought of daily exercise intimidating or unappealing.
