Brilliant book (which I got for my kindle). Easy to follow exercises. Enjoying getting fit again. Use this 2 to 3 times a week. Also good for me as my knees are not too great (find the exercises don't hurt them).

Make sure you don't choose too heavy a weight. The exercises should suit the individual. They are not a competition, not even with oneself.

Excellent book. Easy to follow. Have a couple of Karl Knopf books - for fitness books I like his style of writing. Good stuff. Buy it if you're over 50. (Or under fifty - it does the job for everyone)

4.0 out of 5 stars well written, helpful for novices

The book is well written, clear and to the point; also the figures are clear and helpful. I would have liked the subject to be treated somewhat more in depth, but the book, as it is, can be very helpful to novices and peoples training without the help of a professional trainer.

This book gives me a wide range of easy exercises for every area of the body that I am using to keep myself physically refreshed and adequately strong for my 50+ age. It is well illustrated and well written. I am very pleased to have bought it. Another book which I have found to be excellent, and that I use in conjunction with this one is"Age Defying Fitness: Making the Most of Your Body for the Rest of Your Life." I research books very carefully before buying them and these are among the very best, in my opinion.

Very informative. I plan to use many of the exercises to create a exercise routine. The information about health and exercises specific to health conditions are great.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS BOOK !!

I really like this book. I like that it is written for older adults that want to keep their muscle strength. This book truly understands what it is like to get old and makes you feel that your not alone in your body changes. Makes you want to start working out with weights and bands. It addresses ages from 50 to 101 yrs. old.It gives pictures of each exercise done, which is a great plus. The exercises are also geared for elderly people, which makes you feel comfortable in starting them without fear of over-doing it at first.If your looking for a book to help your in setting up an exercise plan with weights and bands to strengthen your aging muscles, I HIGHLY recommend this book.
