<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>This book "shows how high-intensity exercise can not only promote good health, but control aging and help reduce the effects of time for people over the age of 40. [The author] provides exercises and workouts that will help readers develop the strength, power, and stamina to continue to participate in their favorite activities and live life to its fullest"--<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Are you age 40 or over and want to maintain your workout intensity even as your body starts to age? Are you not yet ready to give up intense sweat sessions? <i>Ageless Intensity</i> offers a research-backed perspective on how high-intensity exercise can not only maximize health benefits past age 40 but also help minimize the physiological effects of aging. <p/> Fitness expert Pete McCall provides straightforward science-based information on how the same high-intensity exercise that provides a number of health benefits--from increased lean muscle mass to burning fat to reduced heart rate--can also influence human physiology in a way that can reduce the biological effects of time. Learn about the impacts of aging on the body and how to keep getting results from working out hard and pushing yourself to your limits while doing it safely, lowering the risk of injury, and building in the needed recovery for a body that may be starting to show signs of aging. <p/> You'll gain practical knowledge on the importance of strength and power, mobility work, and recovery as the keys to boosting your efforts to build and maintain muscle, burn calories, and help joints stay mobile as the body ages. The exercises included are designed to be challenging and deliver tangible benefits to middle-aged and older adults. Save time with the predesigned workouts or customize a complete workout plan to maximize your results and combat the effects of aging. <p/> Reaching the "over-the-hill" milestone doesn't mean you have to slow down. <i>Ageless Intensity</i> is your guide to maintaining fitness with high-intensity exercise and workouts to remain active, stay in shape, and enjoy your favorite activities for the rest of your life. <p/><b>CE exam available!</b> For certified professionals, a companion continuing education exam can be completed after reading this book. The <i>Ageless Intensity Online CE Exam</i> may be purchased separately or as part of the <i>Ageless Intensity With CE Exam</i> package that includes both the book and the exam.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"This book is what the fitness industry has been waiting for.

After 32 years of probing pain mechanisms and building athletic performance and resilience, I found I had become a 60-year-old person losing resilience because of the sitting habits of modern life. I was unhappy about losing my strength and feeling my abilities decline. But such weakening can be reversed, as</i> Ageless Intensity <i>explains. In this book, Pete McCall has synthesized the science on aging well, explaining how to implement the science to enhance your resilience. He explains the reality of the finite capacity allowed by biology but then shows you how to use that capacity wisely. He covers the science of training adaptations, explaining why some body systems adapt quickly and others more slowly. Use this book to become more robust and resilient. Employ the wisdom to live well and feel FABULOUS."</i> <br><b>--Stuart McGill, </b> Author of <i>Back Mechanic</i> and Distinguished Professor Emeritus of the University of Waterloo<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Pete McCall</b> is the owner and president of All About Fitness and host of the All About Fitness podcast.
