Getting Fit & Staying Fit In Your 40s, 50s and Beyond
VERY basic book. If you understand the difference between walking and jobbing and a steak from an apple you will find little if anything helpful. Skip it really really not worth the 30 minutes it will take you to read it.

This book would be a good choice for anyone over the age of 40 who has somehow managed to get through life blocking out 95% of the information available to us about diet and fitness. (And I’m not saying there aren’t such folks. ) However, no one else will find much new and startling information here. The emphasis on strength training for mature folks is certainly a good thing; that’s something that isn’t discussed enough.
I see that elsewhere on this site you can order a year’s worth of Prevention Magazine for under $12. That would be a better investment.

I found this book to be interesting and motivational in building a fitness program that will work for me. I’ve been using the plan presented in this book for about 3 weeks now and have lost over 10 pounds, and look and feel better. I’d recommend this book to anyone over 40 who wants to get healthier.

I bought this book as part of my New Year’s Resolution to lose weight and get fit. Finally, I’m seeing results! The author has great tips for eating right and working out that make sense to me. I’ve tried other plans, but this one really struck a chord–probably because of the charm and appeal of the writing style. I tried salmon for the first time and have discovered a new favorite thanks to this quote from the book, “Bears eat alot of salmon. Have you ever seen a bear have a heart attack?” Ha! I’ve also started following the weight training advice and am surprised how quickly my shape has changed. . . especially my chest. This book is a helpful took for anyone approaching middle age who is ready to stop waiting for the magic bullet and just do it!
