Description
Book SynopsisWe sit at computers all day (nights, too, on deadline), and as we age, our bodies begin to get rusty. Physical, mental, and nutritional health are all affected. Hereâs what to do about itâand how to explain it visually. The book does have a quick and easy exercise program, but itâs also a how-to-show-it graphics manual with examples from Greek vases through 19th and 20th century exercise plans, as well diagrams that explain how to prepare for other sports, and to repair any damage while participating in them.
The book deals with many aspects of exercise: why itâs good for you; what happens to your body if you donât move around enough; medical and anatomical explanations of soreness and exhaustion; the exhilaration of doing physical activityâthe âœrunnersâ high.â It also includes a chapter on nutrition. Driven by explanatory graphics - both historic and contemporary, with examples grouped into âœgalleriesâ in each chapter - Letâs Get Infografit! is aimed at maintaining a level of fitness at all ages.
