Move for life : a practical guide to building everyday strength, balance, and confidence for thriving after 65 / Damien A. Joyner ; foreword by Evan Osar.
Certified personal trainer Damien Joyner not only explodes the myth that growing older means growing weaker -- he offers expert guidance and safe, simple, effective exercises to empower you to regain and maintain your strength and autonomy. Too often, society tells you: as you age, you'll become frail. You'll lose your mobility. It's time to slow down. But at a time when nearly 50 million Americans are aged 65+, these assumptions are more harmful than ever -- especially because they're wrong. Joyner explains which exercises are the most important to prioritize for the movements you do every day -- whether that's standing up from a chair or getting groceries from the car into the cabinet. As a fitness professional who specializes in training people who are 50+, Damien Joyner's approach in Move for Life helps you build strength, increase flexibility, and work on your balance -- all while dispelling any doubts you may have about your ability to stay active after midlife.
