Strength Training Over 40

“Alana Collins created an outstanding strength training program/guide for men and women over 40. This masterpiece of a book covers all the bases, from physical fitness to strength training, nutrition, and how the combination of them all leads to overall brain health. As a 48-year-old veteran who’s had multiple surgeries and has a passion for being fit, this book is exactly what I need to get my body and mind right once again!” –Marcelino A. Magallanez, Jr., Retired US Navy Former Command Fitness Leader “As a fitness professional who works with older adults (65+), I found Strength Training Over 40 to be very clear, concise, and factual. The illustrations are a wonderful addition, and I was able to follow along easily. I recommend this book to seniors to help build healthy habits.” –Kelly Nygard, Nygard Fitness LLC, DBA Live 2 B Healthy“As a former national-level fitness competitor now in my 40s, I appreciate Alana’s focus on strength rather than the scale. She says, if we focus on strength, everything else will fall into place, which I find to be refreshing and a much healthier and sustainable way to train! I love it!” –Shelly Lynn Hughes, Founder of Fresh Magazine and Partner in Project Her, Inc.“As a two-time testicular cancer survivor, taking care of my mind, body, and soul became paramount since the ripe old age of 25. Alana Collins’s book is both essential and rewarding for all of us wanting to live our best lives, for the rest of our lives.” –Joe Fresta, Chairman, cancercarefoundation.net“This book tells you exactly how to keep your body strong, and I appreciate that it focuses on strength rather than being a certain size. It’s a great way to hold yourself accountable while educating yourself. I highly recommend this book to anyone who needs help cutting through all the confusing fitness advice being thrown at us today.” –Yong E., lifestyle blogger over 50
