  • "Readers who feel flabby, lousy, and hopeless about embarking on an exercise regimen that sticks will find plenty of inspiration, paired with practical approaches to "mini-workouts,"in Get a Move On. This isn't the first book to advocate more realistic approaches to exercise, but what sets Get a Move On apart from most competitors in the genre is its attention to linking daily activities to these mini-workouts." -Midwest Book Review

    "Get a Move On! is a fantastic read. It is so much more than a motivational exercise book or program. It's a healthy perspective of incorporating exercise into your life anywhere at any time. No pressure, just do something. As a self-mastery mindset coach myself, I love this perspective, because for the first time this author doesn't make exercise a chore requiring a huge block of time in your schedule. This is a must-read...especially for all those women who think they just don't have time." -Robin Joy Meyers, molecular geneticist, joy architect, TEDx and international speaker, author and self-mastery mindset coach

    "Get a Move On! is a profoundly helpful book for anyone interested in improving self-care and maximizing time. It is like having a personal trainer in your pocket!" -Dr. Anita Gadhia-Smith, psychotherapist and author of Practical Therapy

    "Uplifting, inspiring and witty. Heymann shows us it's never too late to keep fit. By incorporating Mini-Workouts into our daily routines, we can all improve our well-being, no matter our age. Finally, a practical handbook for encouraging even those who always find excuses for not exercising." -Michela Di Carlo, founder and chief editor of CrunchyTales.com, the first international indie magazine for women over 40

    "I require regular daily exercise to help keep my restless, overactive mind calm; in addition, I use a standing desk and alternate my working body positions with stretching. Luisa not only may well have written the bible for my physical well-being, she has kindly taken the time to write down the why and the how of Mini-Workouts for us all." -Frederick Marx, author of Rites to a GoodLife: Everyday Rituals of Healing and Transformation and At Death Do Us Part and filmmaker of Hoop Dream, Journey to Zanskar, and Rites of Passage

    "It is impossible to read this book and not start moving...in the kitchen, at your desk, or anywhere you happen to be. If you're recovering from an injury or looking to ease into exercise but don't know where to start, this book makes it easy and fun with simple exercises, practical tips, and a lot of charm." -Amy Tucker, game designer

    "This is a little book that felt like a big permission slip, freeing me up to feel good about Mini-Workouts. Get a Move On! provides a wonderful service for body and spirit." -Virginia Hume, author of Haven Point

    "I am absolutely charmed by this book. Herein lies a well-organized, relatable, and informative guide that teaches all of us how to insert healthy bursts of movement into our seemingly mundane routines. I applaud the author's ability to make these tasks meaningful and fun. This ist he epitome of progress, not perfection. And progress, my friends, is what sustains health." -Donna Hanes, MD, University of Maryland Medical Center

    "Get a Move On! is just what I need to help me get active once again. It's a mindset that helps me become more active in my everyday life. Thank you, Luisa Heymann!" -Angeline Beach, retired Lockheed Martin executive

    "If you want to shape up but don't even know where or how to start, this great little book will help you get moving. Incidentally, this is the only 'fitness' book that ever made me laugh out loud." -David Kerns, author of Fortnight on Maxwell Street and Standard of Care

    "What I love about this book is that it speaks to real people like the busy executives and entrepreneurial women that I coach who lament not having enough time in the day to engage in self-care. As a practitioner of somatic coaching, I stress the importance of exercise for anyone who wants to be successful! I will be adding this book to the toolkit that I offer clients." -Nicole Cutts, PhD, success coach and clinical psychologist

    "If, like me, you yearn to get fit but can't find the time to make it happen, then Luisa Heymann's new book, Get a Move On! was written just for you. Who knew that a little bit of effort invested in Mini-Workouts throughout the day could produce maximum results? Heymann's advice is simple, sensible, and—most of all—it's DO-able. She guides the reader through an instructive explanation of how she developed her methods and gives very specific examples of how to piggyback Mini-Workouts with almost any activity or environment in a normal day: cooking, sleeping, sex, driving, shopping, and even couch-potatoing! An inspiring book for anyone who wants to get fit without getting physical at the gym. Highly recommended." - Morrie Warshawski, Arts Consultant and Author, Shaking the Money Tree, The Fundraising Houseparty, and This Afternoon, 30 poems
