  With recent studies showing a disturbingly low level of child physical activity, world-famous body builder and hero of Kindergarten Cop , Arnold Schwarzenegger is perfectly placed to inspire a whole generation to a greater level of fitness. Based on Schwarzenegger's conviction that an attitude to exercise is established very early in life and evidence which shows children to be an increasingly unfit generation, this book is filled with diet suggestions and exercise routines for the six-year-old to the teenager. Drawings and special programmes are designed to show parents how to give infant, toddler and preschooler all the physical and emotional benefits of exercise, as well as a sensible eating plan while younger readers will enjoy the different fitness routines and stories of seven-year-old Arnie and friends as he reveals everything from first sporting attempts to his favourite snack. Former Mr Universe and now a major motion picture star of such films as Pumping Iron , Kindergarten Cop and Terminator I and II , Arnold Schwarzenegger has also written Arnold's Body Building for Men and The Encyclopedia of Modern Body Building .
