My old guy weight-lifting book arrived today. I ordered it as soon as Christian recommended. As soon as I got the email that said it arrived and was in our (snail) mailbox, I got all excited with the idea of reading it while I am on the treadmill today. After I saw it, I realized is was WAY bigger than a trade paperback and I might not have too much luck holding it while I walk. We will see. I checked to see if they had a section in the book for guys approaching seventy. The DID! Also a section (the last one) for guys in their seventies, so I think I am all set. Now I need to the book, determine what weights and other material I need to start the program, then make the decision about whether we want to buy weights or head down to a local gym.
