As a 35-year-old with an aging mom, I picked up this book to help them stay active and independent. I'm impressed by how well it breaks down strength training for seniors. The exercises are clearly explained and adaptable for different fitness levels, which is perfect for my mom who's hesitant about working out. I appreciate the focus on practical, functional strength that translates to everyday activities. The sections on balance and mobility are particularly valuable, addressing concerns my parents have expressed about falling. While I'm not the target audience, I've found myself incorporating some of the gentler exercises into my own routine on recovery days. The book's tone is encouraging without being patronizing, which my parents appreciate. It's not a miracle cure for aging, but it offers a solid, achievable approach to maintaining strength and independence in later years. A great resource for seniors or anyone looking to help their older loved ones stay active and healthy.

Of all the books on strength training, i gravitated to this one because the authors approach matched my current fitness level. I am not a senior, but my poor body is not too happy with me. This book was right up my alley, and I found the exercises to be the right fit. The four-week program is perfect as it is not too long or overwhelming. I highly recommend
