Linda Gottlieb will presents her book, "No Ifs, Ands, or Butts" on Wednesday, April 27 at the Fairfield Public Library. 

This is part of the Library's Health Matters Series.  There will be two presentations in the Rotary Room of the Main Library, 1080 Old Post Road.   The first will be from noon to 2 p.m. and the second session will begin at 7 p.m.

This entertaining book is filled with a variety of simple, yet powerful strategies to help you overcome excuses for not exercising.  To develop and maintain a healthy body, you need to create a fitness program that meets your needs and find a way to stick with it.  With the help of No Ifs, Ands or Butts, you will recognize an excuse or two and learn how to skip right by them.  The content is easy to follow, fun, as well as excellent fitness advice for beginners or those more accustomed to exercise. 

Linda Gottlieb has a BA in Psychology, along with a Masters in Instructional Design.  One of the first nationally certified Cancer Exercise Trainers sanctioned by the American Council of Sports Medicine and the American Cancer Society, Gottlieb is also the first certified Cooper Institute Active Living Every Day behavior change program facilitator in the state of Connecticut.  She is currently on staff at Yale University as a cancer exercise trainer on gynecological cancer clinical trials.  Her wide-ranging knowledge of how to motivate clients, help them through behavioral changes right through to sticking to their fitness commitments, makes her book a wonderful tool for getting and staying fit for life.
