Product Description: In modern society, individuals constantly pass judgments on their own body and physical competence. For the person, these physical self-perceptions (PSP) may negatively affect global self-esteem and general mental well being. Three studies was conducted to examine the role that exercise, gender and culture play in the formation of PSP. In Study I, cross-cultural differences in PSP across three national samples (Great Britain, Swe­den and Turkey) of university students was found. Also, the validity of the instrument Physical Self-Perception Profile was supported across the samples.

Product Description: Featuring the youth-building cellulite diet. Blast cellulite with a powerful, effective three-step program. Every woman dreads it. But most women---even thin women---have it. Massage systems, topical creams, and going off caffeine won't budge cellulite, and dieting usually doesn't reduce it either. At last, The Cellulite Solution contains a simple three-pronged program that actually works to reduce dimpling. Drawing on thirty-five years of clinical experience, Dr. Murad has developed a cellulite-slaying method that is effective for woman of any age, no matter how severe their cellulite problem is. A triad of nutritional direction, lifestyle changes, and topical treatments combines to both prevent and get rid of cellulite. Follow Dr. Murad's program and you'll see "cottage cheese thighs" reduced and you'll notice smoother skin all over as your cells are replenished and plumped by water. Dr. Murad explains his complete water principle and why cell hydration-which is essential to healthy and young-looking skin-can't come from drinking water alone. As a bonus, Dr. Murad's program also reduces stretch marks!

Product Description:
The first book of its kind to offer specific yoga techniques to cure or control back pain and sciatica according to its cause.

This is the first book to distinguish the nine common causes of low back pain, to teach you how to identify them, and to describe appropriate yoga poses to relieve each one of them. Dr. Loren M. Fishman, a specialist in rehabilitation medicine who has been using yoga in his medical practice for thirty years, studied yoga in India for a year with B. K. S. Iyengar and is an internationally recognized expert in research and clinical treatment of sciatica and low back pain. This book helps you determine how to start your own yoga practice or alter your existing practice, depending on the severity and chronicity of your pain, and on your physical condition. The postures in this guide, each one illustrated by a photograph, target specific sources of pain—from arthritis to spinal stenosis, from pregnancy to sacroiliac joint derangement—and demonstrate how you can manage, reduce, and ultimately end your pain. 120 illustrations.

Product Description: If there ever was a pair of docs who can make the small intestine seem truly intriguing, here they are. Dr. Mehmet Oz is an alternative-medicine maverick and a cardiologist known to implement acupuncture during open-heart surgery. Dr. Michael Roizen developed the RealAge concept of calculating one's biological, as opposed to chronological, age. Here they've whipped up a witty guide to the workings of the entire body, appropriate not just for those who can't tell their pancreas from their pituitary. Even Cheers’ Cliff Claven types who think they know it all will likely be humbled by the 50-question "body-quotient" quiz that starts off the book.

Product Description: Based on the belief that individuals over 50 can do most of the same things as 20- and 30-year-olds, 50+ Stretching shows how to maintain and improve flexibility by incorporating additional stretching into one's life. Covering all the muscle groups of the body, the author offers specially designed programs catering to every level of fitness.

Among the book's exclusive features are the "supereasy" variations designed for the 60-and-older crowd or individuals with limited mobility. By incorporating helpful props such as a chair, sofa, or elastic strap, these stretches are a safe way to begin gaining flexibility and are the perfect stepping stone to the book's other stretches.
