As a companion to the New York Times bestseller the Fat Flush Plan, The Fat Flush Fitness Plan provides fat flushers with a complimentary fitness program to augment the three phases of the plan. The Fat Flush Fitness Plan is dedicated to promoting a balanced lifestyle and providing the most essential and effective exercises for people who are too busy to exercise Every exercise in The Fat Flush Fitness Plan will target the lymphatic system - the part of the circulatory system that is known for the removal of waste materials and boosting the immune system. But unlike most of the circulatory system, lymph is moved not by the pumping of the heart but through muscular contractions. Lymph is also able to move liquefied fats throughout the system, resulting in dramatic improvement of the skin's connective tissue. By stimulating the lymphatic system, The Fat Flush Fitness exercises increase fat burning, create extraordinary inch loss, and eliminate cellulite. The book will be divided into three distinct weight loss/maintenance sections to correspond with each phase of The Fat Flush Plan, and each will consist of some form of direct lymphatic stimulation, such as rebounding, jump roping, and the easing walking workout. The Phase 3 Lifestyle program will introduce strength training with an emphasis on a strengthtraining workout that improves lymph circulation, helps to spot reduce, and spot tone. The book will also cover such topics as breaking plateaus; targeting tummy fat; jiggly arms; hanging skin after weight loss; specialized conditions such as osteoporosis, arthritis, and diabetes; and taking the workout on the road. Throughout, readers will find personal anecdotes from Fat Flushers, motivational tidbits, easy-to-read charts, and personal success stories.

Review:
The Fat Flush Fitness Plan, written by a powerhouse team, offers Joanie Greggains' detailed exercise programme, designed to complement Ann Louise Gittleman's The Fat Flush Plan. Gittleman is a high-profile nutritionist, frequently featured in the media. Veteran fitness expert Greggains, author of Fit Happens, hosted television's long-running "Morning Stretch" and leads 15 workout videos. Greggains puts emphasis on low-impact aerobics, weight training, stretching, more sleep and calmer living. The eating programme (you'll need Gittleman's other books for the details) hinges on Gittleman's premise that "cleansing the liver and the lymphatic system is absolutely crucial for physical health, weight loss and an overall sense of well-being."

This isn't a quick-fix programme, but a long-term, lifestyle change including yoga, walking or rebounding, strength training with a weighted ball, stretching, lymphatic massage and aromatherapy baths. Start with Phase 1: "Detox, Start Moving--and Relax"; add strength training in Phase 2: "Build Lean Muscle Mass"; increase cardio and change the strength routine in Phase 3: "Lymph-Fit/Compound Strength and Stretching Plan". All phases present a step-by-step, clearly illustrated exercise programme. The book is nicely designed, with clear photographs, boxed tips, write-in questionnaires, pledges and a sample journal. --Joan Price, Amazon.com
