Summary
Over 75 percent of older adults have at least one chronic health condition. Close to 50 percent have at least two. Would you like to stay out of those statistics? If so, then you need to keep reading....
According to Duke University's School of Medicine researchers, people start losing lean muscle and bone density at just 30 years of age. By age 50, your strength, balance, and endurance have already begun to wane.
It can be a scary thought to consider what it really means to get older—but don't be afraid. While the effects of aging are real and measurable, there is also significant evidence that they can be controlled, and even reversed, with one simple practice: regular strength and conditioning exercises.
If you've been looking for guidance to help you start or hone your personal fitness journey, you've come to the right place! In this audiobook and accompanying PDF, here is just a fraction of what you will discover:
- How to develop a balanced, holistic at-home exercise program at any skill level
- Scientific explanations of the processes of aging so you can understand the why behind the changes you've been noticing
- Essential reasons why exercise and good nutrition is critical to aging well
- Key benefits of strength and conditioning training as well as the importance of mindset and goal when motivation wanes
- Foundational, intermediate, and advanced workouts designed to target balance, pain relief, and strength regardless of your past exercise experience, and much more....
With these strategies in hand, you'll be on your way to regaining the strength, flexibility, mobility, and vitality of your youth. Are you ready to embrace a healthier, more active lifestyle that empowers you to stay independent and enjoy life? If so, then you need to get this audiobook today!
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Great Book.
Excellent for the elderly as well as anybody who is rebuilding their strength or healing physically. Also maybe helpful for persons who have had negative emotional or mental experiences in the past about fitness, overtraining, and other similar topics. And are working to recover their physical strength. Even though I have a fair bit of physical discomfort on a daily basis, I am still able to complete my strengthening regimen. If you feel the need to make adjustments, you are free to switch between the warm-up exercises, the fundamental exercises, and the intermediate exercises depending on how your body responds to each one on a given day.
It allows me to relax and not stress about what I am capable of or not capable of doing.Definitely beneficial exercises and not overworking; modular aspects of practise that you can build on; ignore the 'aspirational' routines, and simply do the things!

A Reality Check
As someone who is already in her fifth decade of life, I know I need the information in this audiobook. The data presented is scary, shocking really but I realize this information is necessary for us to understand the importance and urgency of incorporating exercise into our largely sedimentary life.
My work requires long hours of sitting and this book reminds me of the dangers of sitting for long hours without intermittent movement. It was beautiful to see that the exercises presented in Chapter 8 are not very strenuous, indeed I found them fairly easy to execute. The book is a wake-up call but it is simultaneously very inspiring and gives me reason to hope. Thank you for pointing out that it's never too late and even small movements will make a difference.

ANY SENIOR CAN BENEFIT!
This was gifted to me by a fellow author, and what a delightful resource it has turned out to be!
If you’re a senior citizen (as I am), you soon discover how waning strength, balance and stamina begin to impact your life in not very pleasant ways. We think, “Oh, well. I’m no spring chicken any more!” But the fact is, you can make a major impact on your well-being and strength with this very well-researched and thought-out book.
Regardless of your fitness level, there is something here just for you. The ability to craft a program to your personal needs and personal reality are what make this book so valuable. The fact that it comes with a 140+ page PDF clearly illustrating every exercise, from the simplest to the most challenging, is a major plus.
Most of us have a fear of exercising, but with this book, you can set your fears aside and discover just how easy it is to begin WHERE YOU ARE RIGHT NOW and begin to make a measurable difference in the quality of your well being. Highly recommended!

I didn't want this book, but wow is it what I need
This book is so thorough yet easy to understand. It isn't just workouts. It is about the hows and whys of our bodies and what we need to do to keep them working. I have to admit I have not been good at physical working out but this book has motivated me to get moving His workouts are simple, well explained exercises and he gives us choices to use whichever exercises in that category are available. Now that I have finished the book and downloaded the PDF file with pictures and explanations of the movements, I am going to get moving. Thank you Matthew for the push I needed.
