With a minimal time commitment any woman can sculpt away her body trouble spotsThere isn't a woman on the planet who doesn't dream about looking great in a bikini-until they are faced with the huge amount of time and sweat equity involved in reaching swimsuit cover model shape. Feeling intimidated and overwhelmed, they give up before they start. However, readers can get a bikini body-not by working harder, but by working smarter. Exercise guru, Karon Karter, featured on The Natural Wellness Channel's "Pilates for Real Bodies" program, takes the best Pilates moves and combines them with the most effective leg, butt, and ab firming exercises to get in bikini shape in the shortest amount of time possible. Using targeted routines, women will re-sculpt and firm muscles in key trouble areas. Built around a 6-week timeline, Karon Karter offers a specific course that gives women the shortest legitimate way to sculpt their body to bikini perfection.

Summary: I Love this Book!
Comment: I bought this book 4 weeks ago and am in love with it. The workouts change every week so you never get bored and their fun. Also the book has tons of color photos and each exercise is clearly described.
I am seeing changes in my body and I'm not even done with the 6 week program.
If you want a workout program that you'll enjoy and get results than this is the book for you!

Summary: Not just for Women!
Comment: Not just for Women! As a Doctor of Chiropractic I have encouraged patients of both sexes to buy the book. It is filled with great workouts that can challenge people of all fitness levels. Targeted at the muscles needed to stabilize and support your body (the "core"), not only will this help you tone, but strengthen as well.
Karon integrates exercises like Pilates (long a favorite exercise of dancers) with exercises usually only performed by elite athletes like "plyometrics" and interval training (made popular recently in an article published in The Australian Journal of Applied Physiology). Pilates was started by Joseph Pilates as a way to rehabilitate wounded soldiers during World War I. It emphasizes control, strengthening and stretching of key muscles in the body. Plyometrics uses quick short movements to help build strength, and speed. Interval training usually involves high speed workouts along with lower intensity workouts such as sprints, while performing a longer run. Interval training helps burn calories and increases cardiovascular fitness.
Karon's program is FUN! Her writing style is easy to read, follow, and is entertaining. She takes you from the basics, to more advanced exercises as your skills improve. By the time you're done you'll have a better body, not just a better "bikini body."
