Resumen del Editor

Are you an older man looking to finally get in shape and improve your health?

The pursuit of fitness used to be mainly a goal of the young. But with the advancing age of the baby boomer generation, more and more older adults are becoming interested in fitness. There is increasing awareness among older Americans that many health indices can be improved through age appropriate strength training. These include weight and body fat loss, decreased blood pressure, decreased insulin resistance, improved mental sharpness, improved physique and increased muscle mass and strength. Author Peter S. Murano has documented his strength training experiences and recommendations in his Old Man Muscle handbook, “The Older Man’s Guide to Building Muscle and Strength Later in Life,” providing the workout he recommends as well as carefully explained nutrition, lifestyle and spiritual strength training tips. What makes this book different is that it was written by a man who wasn’t into fitness and didn’t start to strength train until he was 63 years old, proving that it is never too late to strength train. The author, who is certified with both ACE and ISSA, realizes the importance of providing age-appropriate training tips.

The book features seven fully illustrated chapters: Introduction; The Challenges We Face as We Age; Before You Start Training; The Old Man Muscle Workout; The Importance of Lifestyle; Spiritual Strength Training; A Better Life at Last

“Old Man Muscle: The Older Man’s Guide to Building Muscle and Strength Later in Life” contains in excess of 200 fact-filled pages, including 34 detailed tables, 80 eye-opening figures, over 200 defined glossary terms, and close to 300 references. Mixing humor with insight and motivational messages, on topics ranging from aging, diet and supplement use, strength training adaptations, and much more – the author has created a unique “handbook” for the older man that you will want to turn to again and again.
