Science digests for amateur athletes locked

Wednesday, Nov 19, 2008

Amateur Athlete is set up to encourage, connect and inform amateur athletes of all ages as research shows that exercise and a healthy lifestyle prevents disease and helps us to live better and happier. "Weight Loss Training" is on sale at $7.99 USD for the rest of November from the Amateur Athlete Store (external link). It is available as an e-book in the format (ePub) that is supported by Adobe Digital Editions (external link), the Sony Digital Reader (external link) and the Mobipocket reader (version 6.2) (external link).

You can buy it now from the Amateur Athlete Store (external link).
