Addressing people of all fitness levels, the authors discuss getting started, setting attainable goals, achieving a target heart rate, and toning the most common trouble spots. Workouts include an antiosteoporosis workout that strengthens the bones most affected by the disease. Completely updated, this book also includes current resources, photos demonstrating proper form, charts for keeping track of progress, and safety tips for preventing injuries.
