This book sounded PERFECT!

Subtitled “Exercises and Routines to Build Muscle, Balance, and Stamina,” and written by a Physical Therapist, the premise of the book is that it is possible even for seniors to build/regain strength and balance by spending ten minutes a day. Sign me up!

The organization is fine. Starting with core principles of strength training, the book presents forty individual exercises as well as twenty-five routines that are designed to “build muscle mass, improve bone density, and feel great.”

There are no equipment requirements, and there are detailed instructions for everything. Thanks to Callisto Publishing and NetGalley for providing a copy in exchange for this honest review. I can’t truly evaluate it, as the digital version is essentially unusable on both a Kindle and iPad using the Kindle app. I love the instructions, and plan to seek it out at a bookstore to see if it is as good as I hope (once the instructions are integrated into the text). I’m giving it four stars in the hope that the print version will live up to my expectations, which are based on the digital version.
