It provides hard-to-find information on women's health specifically as it relates to exercise. This highly readable resource combines research with women's personal experiences to present practical, scientifically sound advice.

Summary: YOU CAN'T JUDGE A BOOK BY ITS COVER
Comment: This one delivers much MORE than the cover led me to expect. It begins with a really humorous historical look at women and physical activity.

The other thing I really like about this book is its strong message that physical activity really can be for everyone. Whether you're an elite athlete or someone who has difficulty making it around the block, this book encourages you to meet yourself where you are and start claiming the truly good feelings and health benefits that come from moving your body.
