Understanding the attitudes of older women toward exercise by Marlyn Black
In late 1998 I began training an 87-year-old lady named Jeri. She and her daughter decided that Jeri needed to start weight training. So the journey began. Jeri was a joy to work with. She was always ready to try a new exercise and she amazed the guys in the gym when she proudly displayed her “guns” for their approval. She would declare, “Oh, isn’t that grand, I can really feel that muscle working!” We continued to exercise together until she went blind at 93.
