Book Reviews of Strength Training for Women

Book Review: Another 5 star review
Summary: 5 Stars

This is a great entry or re-entry level book. I used it summer before last to prepare for a camping trip. At the time (alas) I had decent cardiovascular fitness but knew I wanted to improve upper body strength along with core and lower body fitness. I created a work out I could enjoy.

If you are new to weights, she has a very sensible approach to starting. The models are obviously strong women but no oiled, beef-cake type poses, no ultra-buffed bods. So indeed, if that's what you're looking for, this is NOT it.

Very nice emphasis on fitness for a lifetime. I'm going to have to take a look at the cards.
