About The Book

Be strong and fit no matter your age in just 1 hour a week. Ageless Strength shows athletes and active people how to build sustainable fitness for a lifetime of active pursuits.

It’s a myth that our older years only bring physical decline. While it’s true that we may lose strength, bone density, and balance as we age, our bodies react the same way to training at any age. The key is to push our bodies in the right ways. A smart mix of strength training can counteract the physical effects of aging and keep you strong and fit for years. In just two 30-minute sessions a week, you can get into the best shape of your life at any age.

Ageless Strength offers a simple, effective way to get strong and fit. In his focused and proven program, coach and trainer Jeff Horowitz reveals exercises that fight back against the years. Ageless Strength is an effective program that includes:
  • A dynamic and engaging mix of 50 simple strength exercises that will build muscle, bone, and balance to combat the top three physical changes that lead to injury and loss of strength
  • A 6-week quick-start program to build out your fitness base as well as a long-term strength program
  • Coded exercises with photos and step-by-step instructions to make it easy to personalize the workout routine that is ideal for you
  • Variations and options to make each exercise more challenging as your fitness improves
  • Exercises you can do at home or on the go.

These effective exercises use bodyweight or minimal equipment so that no gym membership is required. Each functional strength move mimics a real-life motion so you’ll know it will help your day-to-day fitness.

Whether you want to keep going strong in your favorite sport or simply attack the challenges of daily life with confidence and power, Ageless Strength shows that it's never too late to get into the best shape of your life!

Praise for Books by Jeff Horowitz

"A smart strength-training plan in which runners can learn how to strength their core and key running muscles."

Competitor magazine

When I'm [running] 30, 40, 50 miles a week, the last thing I want to do is squats on legs that already feel like overcooked spaghetti. Jeff Horowitz has a solution. He's been a running coach for more than a decade and is the author of Quick Strength for Runners.

Philadelphia Inquirer

Running is a sport of imbalance. At no point are your feet hitting the ground at the same time. This imbalance creates an opportunity for injury. Our bodies have to be strong enough to handle the complex motion of running. If it’s not, you won’t be running too long… Trusting this program has me running stronger and faster and most importantly injury free.

The exercise program is ideal for runners whose sole goal is running performance. Runners don’t need to lift huge weights or practice resistance training five days per week. What they do need to is to develop a modest degree of well-balanced strength.

We all know that strength training is important. I have always said that I should do more strength training, but it wasn’t until I started trying this book that I really realized how much it can help me. I started this book before I was back to running, and I believe without a shadow of a doubt that it has had a big impact on my running now. I am stronger, recover easier and have less soreness overall.
