Here's a safe, effective, flexible whole-body training program for health, fitness, and increased physical strength. It's a six-week program for beginners who want to get in shape and stay that way. Many beginners risk doing themselves harm by starting weight training without advice on the workout program that is best for them. Those who follow The Beginner's Guide to Weight Training will never make that mistake. The author presents a self-assessment questionnaire to help readers evaluate their level of health and fitness, then offers expert advice on nutrition, clothing, and footwear. He follows up with information on techniques and warm-up exercises, along with a three-days-per-week program that extends for six weeks. Charts and diagrams will help readers evaluate their progress, stay motivated, and develop long-term habits for keeping in shape. More than 150 color photos and illustrations.
