THE RIGHT MOVES to Getting Fit &
Feeling Great!
By Tina Schwager, P.T.A., A.T.,C. and Michele Schuerger .
The benefits of good nutrition and regular exercise can last a lifetime. This upbeat,
positive book encourages girls to realize their full potential by developing a healthy
self-image, eating right, and becoming physically fit.
THE RIGHT MOVES guides girls along the right path to total fitness, inside and out. Part
1, "Empowerment," encourages them to have a positive attitude and treat
themselves well.
Part 2, "Food Is Your Fuel," teaches girls the
truth about "fat-free" foods, how to read the nutrition labels on food
packaging, why it's important to eat fruits and vegetables and limit fats, how to eat
smart at home, at school, on dates, and at the mall-and why crash diets don't work.
Part 3, "Bodies in Motion," invites girls to get
pumped up about fitness. Chapters explore cross-training, finding a fitness plan that
really works, why sweat is "sweet," and how to warm up, stretch, cool down, and
avoid or treat exercise-related injuries.
Filled with quizzes, quotes, up-to-date facts, fun activities, and
common-sense advice, this book inspires young women to take care of their bodies, get and
stay healthy, and believe in themselves. 176 pp., illust., S/C, 7" x 9". Ages 11
& up.
