Meet your new training partner! If you are a plus-size woman and want to get stronger, but you are intimidated by the gym or don&;t have access to a personal trainer, Big & Bold: Strength Training for the Plus-Size Woman is for you. Unlike books that target weight loss as the ultimate goal, this book emphasizes why strength training and movement are important for women of all sizes and how progress is not tied to a number on the scale.

Big & Bold: Strength Training for the Plus-Size Woman offers clear and simple instructions on how to safely perform 83 exercises to make them more effective for larger bodies. Master the squat and hinge exercises for the lower body; push and pull exercises for the upper body; and loaded carry, rotation, and anti-rotation exercises for the core. Learn why some movements are more important than others and how to safely progress by manipulating the reps, sets, load, and rest periods.

Sample workouts&;from beginner level through advanced&;enable you to determine your starting point for strength training goals. Choose from a variety of training equipment for many of the exercises or follow the dumbbell- or kettlebell-only workouts if you have limited access to equipment.

You&;ll also find tips for clothing and equipment needs. And, because she&;s &;been there, done that,&; author Morit Summers explains how to pace yourself with advice on when and how often to work out and what to do if you become overwhelmed on your journey.

Big & Bold: Strength Training for the Plus-Size Woman will inspire you to start putting one foot in front of the other to become a stronger, more capable version of yourself.

CE exam available! For certified professionals, a companion continuing education exam can be completed after reading this book. Big & Bold: Strength Training for the Plus-Size Woman Online CE Exam may be purchased separately or as part of the Big & Bold: Strength Training for the Plus-Size Woman With CE Exam package that includes both the book and the exam.
