Goal Digger Fitness: Look, Feel, and Perform Your Best with a Breakthrough 14-Day Exercise Plan Tailored to Your Goals and Your Life

Author: Eric Harr

There is a Fitness Goal Digger in each of us, a person who thrives upon movement, who is ready to set exercise goals and do what it takes to achieve them. Perhaps you consider yourself a runner, cyclist, golfer, or Rollerblader. Then again, maybe you're at the point where you just take the stairs instead of the elevator, do some yard work or vacuum the living room vigorously, and park in the farthest spot from the entrance when you shop. Whatever the case, you want to lead a reasonably active life--when you have the time and, of course, the motivation. But lately, "whenever you can" and "whenever life allows" are not as often as you'd like them to be. Goal Digger Fitness will show you how to fit exercise into the context of your everyday life. In this book, you'll find:

• A test to help you match your fitness program to your psychology, physiology, and schedule
• A three-step program to identify personal obstacles, define your goals, and execute a personalized fitness plan
• Exercise plans prescribed in 10-day doses with 4-day breaks in between
• Tips and strategies to overcome mental and physical roadblocks
• The Goal Digger Diet, with an array of healthy, tasty meals that can be prepared in less than 10 minutes

With special programs such as the Look Better Program, Feel Better Program, Perform Better Program, and Better Health Program, this superb guide will help you set and achieve your goals so that you reach your full fitness potential.
