Today's Health Tip
Healthy women over age 40 who weight train vigorously twice a week can improve their bone density, balance and strength. They also feel better and have lower risk of fractures.
  • See a fitness expert or read a reputable book on high intensity exercise
  • Select exercises to strengthen thighs, buttocks, stomach, back and arms
  • High intensity means repeating an exercise 8-10 times, not 15-30 times
