I strongly recommend Sixty-Plus and Fit Again not only for older persons and their families, but for practitioners in the field of aging. The exercises are described in a manner which makes them easily applied, even for the physically handicapped.

A useful guide to a more vigorous, energetic lifestyle for older people. Younger retirees as well as older men and women will greatly benefit from it.

I can see why Magda Rosenberg has so many enthusiastic followers....I hope her message reaches many senior citizens because it will surely inspire them to keep in better physical shape. The older generation at whom this work is aimed will be able to comprehend its messages and follow her well-planned exercises.
