Review: The 1-Hour Goddess

The 1-Hour Goddess by Anne Clara Laugesen
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

It is by no means a ground-breaking book. But one thing the author does well, is encourage and support. Weight-lifting is still seen as un-ladylike, and by changing this notion to, "Girls, Go Lift!" the change becomes tangible, and achievable at the same time.
Yes, I might not agree with all of the things mentioned in this book, especially as a vegan, the "diet" portion of this book, is a no-win to me personally.
But there are still good things in here, this book is sizable enough, but can be read in one sitting, for a greater time used for 1) contemplation... 2) booking your local gym!
The extra touches where support is openly given are great in this book, and I would argue are the main strength point of the book as a whole.
The Facebook group dedicated to the book is very positive and approachable.
And the extra materials are easily gained by emailing the author, which again showcases openness and dedication.
I would probably reread the book, to "digest" (pun intended) the book better, and now the main thing is ahead of me - actually sticking with the changes, and sustaining the positive outlook!
