Description

No more exercise we hate! If you're like most of us, your fitness story is a string of lapsed gym memberships, failed fad diets, and long stretches of sedentary life with brief bursts of "this time I'm really going to get it done" training programs. You probably even bemoan your lack of grit and discipline and have a string of "if onlies" in your head when it comes to exercise."If only I had more time...""If only I didn't have this injury...""If only I had the cash to buy a treadmill or join a gym..."What if you could go from COUCH to ACTIVE in just 8 weeks--without pills, potions, powders, or special equipment?Bad Couch Guru Lyn Lindbergh shows you how to create an active lifestyle you love--one you can stick with for decades to come. This book isn't about chasing a perfect bikini-body or cramming you into another "let's fix you" fitness program. Lyn's approach meets you where you are. With humor, real talk, and her trademark energetic encouragement, she helps you break through the obstacles that keep you from exercise and find ways to cultivate an active lifestyle you love.Imagine yourself living a life you love by honoring what's important to you; and embracing this crazy-as-bananas life while including exercise you enjoy. COUCH to ACTIVE gets you there in just eight weeks.Don't cram yourself into someone else's box--one that doesn't let you live the life you want. Aim for a life you love! Read more

    • Great Read
Very well written!!

    • An exercise book unlike ANY other (trust me, I own them all)
The world is filled with workouts and meal plans, most of them making promises that in X amount of time you can achieve Y result (and all you have to do is stop being so lazy and commit already). A quick walk through the exercise and fitness section of any bookstore demonstrates just how popular this formula is: 40 Days to Personal Revolution, 8 Minutes in the Morning… The last thing the world needs is another book laying out a rigid plan and making promises that “all you have to do” is follow the plan. So Lyn Lindbergh did NOT write that book. Couch to Active is a book for anyone who wants to transition from couch-ing to exercising. Though the subtitle is “The Missing Link That Takes You From Sedentary to Active,” I personally hate the term “sedentary” as the starting point. Truthfully, many people who don’t exercise are not sedentary; instead, they are caring for young children or aging parents, working full time at demanding jobs, and otherwise constantly in motion mentally, if not physically. Lyn’s got your back, perfectly normal, average person with a full, busy life, and this book is for you. The typical fitness book is written with a mixture of tough love (“suck it up, buttercup”) and praise (“you finished today’s workout—see you tomorrow!”) that can leave you feeling bad and discouraged when you can’t follow the plan to a T. Couch to Active is written with compassion and understanding. A big focus of the book is finding self-compassion while creating YOUR exercise plan for life. I can’t really say “it starts with baby steps” because you, the reader, get to decide how big the steps are, but it does start with self-inquiry. ... show more

    • "The hardest exercise is getting off the couch!"
With those words, Lyn captures the essence of the fitness struggle for so many of us. In reality, we're pretty good at getting off the couch for everyone and everything BUT our own fitness. We race through our days fueled by quick sugar and caffeine, taking care of everyone's needs but our own. It's no wonder the couch is so appealing at the end of the day. With her "velvet hammer" approach, Lyn cuts through the excuses and uses wit, wisdom, and compassion to help us dig deep and overcome the obstacles that keep us anchored to the couch. Rather than give yet another prescriptive exercise and diet plan, Lyn meets the reader wherever the reader is. Need to lose 100 pounds? Lyn can help. Frustrated by an injury or chronic illness? Lyn's advice will help you figure out what you can realistically do and where you need to give yourself compassion. Already in pretty good shape, but having trouble fitting activity into a hectic life? Lyn's practical tips and tricks go beyond the basic "take the stairs" advice and make sustainable fitness achievable. COUCH to ACTIVE is a terrific program for anyone who wants to ditch the sedentary life for good. This book is a must read! ... show more

    • Perfect if you've struggled to live an active lifestyle
Lyn's approach in COUCH to ACTIVE is completely different from any other book or program out there. She helps her readers create a true habit by helping them through every step of the process. She leads us through overcoming every possible setback and helps prepare us for the hardest part of the journey to living an active lifestyle--making sure we're mentally ready to stick with it. This book is a must read for anyone who wants to get up off the couch, or who has been frustrated by plans in the past that they haven't been able to follow. ... show more

    • Exercise struggler, she gets you
Exercise comes easily to me, but I've worked with enough women to know that it doesn't for many. And oftentimes it's not that they can't or they don't want to, it's just that everything else gets in the way. Lyn gets it. Without shame and judgement but with compassion and thought provoking assignments, Lyn will help you go from a sedentary lifestyle to an active one...that you'll stick to. Get ready to start moving and stay moving. ... show more

    • FROM THE HEART
I am so excited for this new book from Lyn. I have worked with Lyn for over a year and her effectiveness as a coach and motivator are fantastic. She can apply practical effective training while meeting you exactly where you are at. This book is going to be an extension of her warmth and her ability to connect. Can't wait till it arrives. ... show more

    • Lyn just gets it!
This book is such a great tool for getting started in a healthy lifestyle! It's not a program that you have to follow step-by-step, hoping it fits you. Instead, its a guide to helping you create a healthier, active lifestyle that you love!

    • Achievable and accessible fitness book
COUCH to ACTIVE makes fitness achievable and accessible for everyone. I love how Lyn motivates her readers to make movement a part of their everyday lives - and create true and sustainable habits that will help them feel their best day in and day out.
