Just what I needed

While pro-athletes may not benefit from this book, it is at exactly the right level for me. I bought a treadmill and an elliptical recently and wanted to get some ideas for how to use both to my best advantage. This books confirms some of my ideas (alternating high-impact with low-impact, having the TV lined up to take my mind off the torture) and gave me a lot more ideas with a good round up of the basics. I am a male in my mid-40s and I think men and women in my age group that are not overly enthusiastic about braving the elements and want a way to multitask while exercising (e.g., watch the news and work out), because they have young children to look after, for instance, might greatly benefit by looking at this resource. Some may say it is all very simple but that is the beauty of it --somebody with experience has processed useful information and his good ideas here for our benefit. 60 minutes of exercise following these ideas this 4 to 5 days a week are already making a difference for me.
