In Fit as a Family, coauthors Cathy Nobil-Dutton and Jule Anne Henstenburg have it all figured out. It's pretty simple. If you want your family to be healthy, it's up to you.
This straightforward and fun "how-to" guide looks at the family as a group - no one gets left behind and everyone has a chance to get fit. With relevant and engaging tips, the coauthors get families with school aged children and teens moving in the right direction.
In six informative chapters with titles like "Sounds Good...How Do I Make It Happen?," "Who's the Parent Here?," and "Off the Couch - Family Fitness," they make it easy for families to consider portion size, unnecessary and invisible calories, and energy balance. And, while there is a good deal of encouragement for families that already have weight issues, the key is to share the burden - and the fun - of getting fit.
Families will be empowered - and that's the point. There are activities, suggestions, and guidelines, but there isn't a strict diet, secret remedy, or quick fix.
Getting fit as a family is about making simple, everyday lifestyle changes, ones that will affect your family's health for the rest of their lives. |
