Book Description

One of America's elite trainers brings us an exciting, effective personal fitness approach that promises—and delivers—wonderful results.

The innovative Power Sculpt program provides a fun, full-body workout and combines the best elements of strength training, body sculpting, flexibility and core conditioning. The Power Sculpt workout utilizes easy-to-find equipment including swiss balls, light weights, and strength bands, common to most gyms and ideal for home workouts.The body's "core" muscles are the abdominal, back and hip muscles that stabilize the spine and form the center of power and stability for the entire body. Building a strong core improves balance, prevents back injury, makes movement more efficient and can even help the respiratory system.

Using the simplest equipment and the most effective exercises, Power Sculpt is the perfect workout for those who want to be stronger, have more energy, and feel healthier in every aspect of their lives. 100 b/w photos.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great total body experience!!, May 24 2004
By Teresa Lopez (London, Ontario Canada) - See all my reviews
Body Sculpt has given me more tools for my at-home workouts. I occasionally use the exercises at the gym and some of my friends are amazed at what can be accomplished with the fitness ball.

This book has great photos and personal training tips to build up your "core" which gets you motivated to try the advanced balance poses and exercises.

If you have a fitness ball and love it, you must get this book. It will re-motivate and amaze you. The results are great and the satisfaction that you can achieve an advanced state is even better.

5.0 out of 5 stars Powersculpt- Not just for women, Dec 23 2003
By Ed Hackie (Las Vegas, NV United States) - See all my reviews
A wonderful book on swiss ball exercises that compliments and is the third supporting leg of a total workout when combined with weight training and aerobics. The exercises look easy but the effort involved is a challenging workout that is very satisfying. This book is not just for women!!! I enjoyed this book and use it daily along with variations from Paul Fredian's other book Surf Flex. I am 56 years old and these exercises have improved my indurance, strength and flexibility.

5.0 out of 5 stars Safely add natural fitness to your routine, Sep 22 2003
By A Customer
I'm a fitness instructor looking for more natural exercises to keep my clients away from machines. Paul's PowerSulpt workouts do exactly that. This book has allowed me to build out my client's routnies with safe alternatives to heavy weights and machines and also provides elements of balance and complexity that mimic moves in ways that people do natuarally in everyday life.

Thanks for sharing your knowledge Mr. Frediani.
