Strength Training for Seniors: an Easy & Complete Step by Step Guide for You

Publisher Marketing: "Strength training" and "seniors" does not sound like a probable match, but in fact it is a match made in heaven. The mere thought of people who are past their physical prime pumping iron might seem vain or ludicrous, but millions of seniors are discovering the manifold benefits of strength training, and the medical community continues to produce studies showing that those who dare to incorporate strength training in their weekly routines gain all sorts of physical and emotional benefits. Unfortunately, many seniors discover the wonders of strength training while doing rehabilitation after a surgery or a fall. You don't have to wait until you experience a health crisis to begin doing strength training. In fact, starting a regular strength training program could prevent many of the crises that force seniors to do workouts with weights. As more and more people live to older ages, more and more practices formerly thought of as being just for young people are creeping into older age categories as well. Seniors sky dive, seniors ski, seniors dance and seniors even get married and go on honeymoons. There's no reason why you as a senior cannot take up a strength training regimen, and it might not take as long as you think. As more seniors begin to do strength training, they are finding that they feel better, look better and, in many cases, they are living longer as they get stronger and fitter. If the thought of any kind of exercise makes you feel a little ill, take heart. You can design your own program with the types of exercises that you enjoy and tone the parts of your body that you care about most. Contributor Bio:  Scotts, Jason Not everyone is a puzzle lover, which was certainly true for Jason Scotts. But over time, he became one and can't stop doing them now. He has no complaints about it because he has learned that figuring out puzzles is a great way to help him concentrate better and keep his mind focused. He likens it to learning a new language or reading sheet music. These are all great brain stimulators and stretch your brain power so to speak. Now that Jason is really into doing puzzles, he hopes to encourage others to get into it as well with his puzzle book. Really what he wants is for you to get hooked on doing them as he is and in return you'll have better focus and concentration on things that are more of a serious nature where forgetting can really cause problems that you would prefer to avoid. So he will continue to enjoy puzzles and looks forward to coming out with additional puzzle books in the future. Stay tuned.
