Lifetime Physical Fitness and Wellness - Softcover

"This text is an easy-to-read publication that uses visuals well. It translates scientific jargon into everyday language so the non-science major in the core curriculum wellness class is not at a disadvantage. There is excellent use of photographs, tables, figures, and text boxes to supplement the written descriptions. ... This text meets our needs better than any other wellness text, which is why we have adopted it for use in our classes over the last 8 years."

LIFETIME PHYSICAL FITNESS AND WELLNESS guides students through the development of a personalized program for fitness and wellness. Each chapter allows readers to chart and update their progress in the various components of physical fitness and the dimensions of wellness.
