This guide helps readers determine the type and extent of exercise they need to counteract the pain, limitations, and expense associated with arthritis. Developed in co-operation with the American College of Sports Medicine, "Action Plan for Arthritis" is a complete and effective guide. Inside you will find: strength training, flexibility, and aerobic training programs; guidance in customizing the programs based on your level of fitness and degree of arthritis; joint-friendly exercise options, including water exercise, tai chi, and yoga; and real-life motivation stories from others who are thriving with the same condition. Readers will also find information on the pros and cons of supplement use so that they can make informed decisions about the "cures" advertised for arthritis.
