"Stay Strong Live Long" makes exercise accessible to everyone, including older adults, and disabled or wheelchair-bound individuals of any age. Best described as a 'Fitness Class in a Book', it is inspired by the author's nearly 30 years of experience of teaching fitness to people of all ages and fitness levels.
Experienced cardiac, cancer rehabilitation and falls prevention fitness teacher, Pat Kingsmill has seen at first hand how important fitness becomes as we age. The book contains Pat's all-round, balanced exercise programme, which aims to build general fitness and work the whole body through a series of fitness workouts, or 'classes', each with a focus on either Aerobic exercise or Strength and Balance.
Colour-coded sections and suggested programmes help guide the reader, whatever their fitness level, through the exercise sessions. All of the workouts emphasise Mobility and Flexibility and introduce, or re-introduce, 'seniors' to exercise. There are seated or supported options throughout and abridged workouts for those who are new to exercise, elderly or infirm.
The aim is 'Functional Fitness': to build balanced strength and flexibility across the whole body, to keep it functioning efficiently and improve physical health and quality of life. These are exercises to train your body for everyday life, to help you sit, stand, climb up and down stairs, play with the grand-kids, carry heavy shopping or push open still doors.
The author's simple, straightforward teaching style is translated onto the pages with easy to read text in large fonts. Multiple photos help explain and demonstrate each exercise. There are detailed posture tips and options for easier or harder versions of many of the 70+ individual exercises.
"Stay Strong Live Long" is principally targeted at older adults, including those with health conditions - but is beneficial at any age. It is an invaluable aid for carers and care industry support staff to organise exercise activities and may be used as a reference point for classes in an adult day care centre, or a residential care home.
