Fit After 50

Written by a woman who began running marathons at 50 years old, this inspirational guide describes the physical, mental, and emotional benefits of exercise. It confronts the problem of obesity today--nearly 60 percent of Americans are overweight--and emphasizes that weight control becomes an even greater challenge with age. But as this handbook asserts, it's never too late to get fit. In nine easy-to-follow steps, the mechanics of an exercise program are clearly explained to help fitness first-timers devise their own regimens and become healthier in all areas of life.Wassinger, Ruth K. is the author of 'Fit After 50', published 2008 under ISBN 9781886039902 and ISBN 1886039909.
