Reviews

[Eric Farnsworth]

Completed this reading for a summer school course in 2022. I appreciated the review of fundamental ideas on health and wellness.
We also watched the video The Skinny on Obesity.
Our world kinda has a problem with food, health, and wellness.

[Sloan Dunlap]

Fit & Well is an informative and user-friendly resource for beginners or those looking to brush up on the basics of fitness and wellness. While it may not satisfy more advanced or specialized audiences, it provides a clear, structured approach to understanding the essential concepts of physical fitness and healthy living.

[Gloria Byrd]

Far too much information for the average reader or college student in a required fitness class. I can understand this being for a fitness-related major. The material itself is good. There is simply too much extra information for the everyday person or exhausted college student.

[LaNae]

The chapters on stretching, exercise/weight training and disease prevention were probably more like 4 star. I will probably continue to reference the stretches. I liked the 3-4 chapters less than the rest.

[Tyrnadream]

It was usefull to help me understand how to work my many muscle groups, how to corectly use free weights and resistance training. The charts were removeable so I could copy them and keep a running record of my progress.

Introduction to Wellness and Fitness. The book had some good information, but it was sometimes a bit cheesy.

[Joy Virtue]

only read this for school, easy enough to get through for the most part, but some realy technical sections.
