About the book

Frank, funny, and sympathetic, this fitness book offers realistic tips, encouragement, and dozens of activity ideas for times when exercise is the only thing that will help—and the last thing you want to do.

  • Incorporate exercise into your daily life
  • Build an adjustable workout plan for both good and bad mental health days
  • Shake off the messages that say you're never doing enough
  • Set up a workout log that motivates you in exactly the way you need
  • Celebrate all your achievements, including getting out of bed
  • But also get a little exercise in bed, if that's where you are today

Work It Out meets you where you are—even if you're lying on the floor.
