The XBX (Ten Basic Exercises) Plan is an exercise program developed for the Royal Canadian Air Force for women. The program consists of charts that get progressively more difficult, and takes 12 minutes per day after users get past the beginning levels. Physical fitness does not mean bulging muscles nor is it the exclusive property of men. Physical fitness has a positive effect on mental fitness. It also enhances and improves such desirable qualities as vitality, appearance, and personality. The ten exercises in this booklet have been carefully selected and their manner of use has been designed to enable women to achieve physical well being for optimum living. Although the Royal Canadian Air Force demands a high standard of physical fitness for its women personnel, this standard is no higher than that desired by women for themselves. The only known way to physical fitness is through physical exercise. The exercise plan outlined in the XBX booklet provides women with the opportunity to achieve physical fitness in an enjoyable, interesting manner for a total investment of only 12 minutes a day.
