Be a Winner! Being fit and healthy is about being your personal best! Health and Fitness for Teens covers a most essential topic for teens: having a healthy body, liking your body and being fit, or as teens say, “looking hot.” This can be more difficult to achieve than you might imagine. In the teen years, our bodies (and moods) are in a constant state of change. We can feel like we’re just getting to know who we are when suddenly we are someone totally different. While the ups and downs caused by all the hormonal changes going on can make you and your body feel like you are strangers to each other, it’s most important that you be friends. This book uncovers some of the myths teens have for comparing themselves to a standard other than their own, and covers some very important ground on how to best take care of your body so you look and feel your very best. Learn how to decide what weight is best for you; how to fuel your body and make smart choices when it comes to food, as well as important information on the subject of weight loss. And yes, learn about the importance of buffing up those muscles – and relaxing them as well. “Being fit is one of the most important decisions you make for yourself. This book will help you value the art of being your personal best.” – Chris Cucchiara, Lessons from the Gym for Young Adults
