Fit After 40 by Sheela Nambiar Pdf

The ultimate guide to living your best life through your 40s, 50s, 60s and beyond. An old adage goes that age is all in one’s mind. However, the 40s bring on a series of changes – mentally, physically and emotionally – that we scarcely anticipate and usually deny to ourselves. Instead of viewing it as a turning point to a new, enhanced experience of life, many of us are left bewildered and in ‘crisis’. Applying her wealth of experience as an obstetrician and gynaecologist, and a fitness and lifestyle consultant, Dr Sheela Nambiar brings to you this holistic health guide that ensures that the decades ahead of your 40s are the best yet. This book contains: • Tests to assess your current fitness levels and help determine the best course of action for you; • Tools for understanding the inevitable hormonal changes and how to deal with them; • Insights into why we gain weight after 40 and how to control it; • Daily exercises that will help restore vitality and maintain your posture, balance and flexibility; • Ways to improve your sleep patterns and nutritional intake; • Tips to keep yourself and your relationships positive, productive and motivated. Fit after 40 will infuse you with a new sense of purpose and propel you towards living the good life you’ve worked hard to achieve!

Fitness for Men Over 40 by Ron Kness Pdf

A question I frequently hear asked is "Why do men over the age of 40 struggle to lose weight?" And it is a fair question. That was about the time in my life when I had to start watching my weight. Now that I'm 65, it isn't getting any easier either as the years tick by. But with a lot of work, it is doable to keep your weight down and fitness level up. The chapters in this book show you how. If you're a male in your forties or older, you definitely know the struggle is real. It doesn't matter if you were an athlete back in college or even a soldier back in the day as I was for 36 years ... you will notice changes in your body. You'll find it easier to gain weight and more difficult to lose it. If you do workout, you'll find it more difficult to do the same things you used to do with ease. The weights will seem heavier. Your stamina will have dropped. You'll feel less energetic and driven. The only consolation here is that whatever you may be feeling is very normal. It's part and parcel of aging. Let's look at why a man has a tougher time losing weight once he crosses forty. In this book I'll show you what foods you should be eating and the exercise schedule you need to get and stay in shape as you continue through your middle age and into your senior years. It is possible to get in shape or stay in shape as you continue to age.
