Strong & Social: A guide to ageing well through movement and social connection (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781923650220)

What if the secret to ageing well had less to do with anti ageing creams and miracle cures... and more to do with movement, purpose, and finding your people?

In Strong & Social, exercise scientist and founder of Community Moves, Van Marinos, shares a powerful and deeply human look at what it truly means to grow older well.

After watching his own father battle terminal cancer, Van was forced to confront a difficult truth. We are living longer than ever before, but many of us are becoming weaker, lonelier, and more disconnected along the way.

This book is not about chasing perfection or becoming a fitness fanatic. It is about reclaiming strength, confidence, mobility, and joy in a way that is realistic, sustainable, and grounded in real life.

Inside, you will discover:

- Why movement is one of the most powerful tools we have for longevity

- How strength training can dramatically improve quality of life as we age

- The hidden health dangers of loneliness and social isolation

- Practical ways to create healthier habits that actually stick

- Inspiring real life stories from everyday people transforming their lives through movement and community

Blending science, storytelling, and practical advice, Strong & Social is a guide for anyone wanting to feel stronger, healthier, and more connected in the second half of life.

Because ageing is inevitable. How we age is not.
