Get Fit in Bed: Tone Your Body and Calm Your Mind From the Comfort of Your Bed

Author: Genie Tartell

Here is the fitness solution many of us have been waiting for-a strengthening, conditioning, and toning program that anyone can do from the warmth and comfort of your own bed. Older folks, people recovering from surgery or injury, and expecting mothers who've been put on bed rest will especially benefit from these techniques.

A series of forty-two exercises drawn from yoga, Pilates, karate, and stretching, the routine is grouped into three sections: exercises to be done lying on your back, sides, and stomach. Regular practice will tone muscles, increase strength and endurance, calm the mind and, yes, even improve sleep! Each exercise is described in lucid detail, illustrated with a series of step-by-step photographs, and includes modification for certain health and lifestyle conditions.
