Summary: You can get better with age
Review: As a fan of Denise Austin's I had to purchase her latest book, Fit and Fabulous After 40 and I was very impressed with her book. I knew it would be good since Densie wrote it. It's so refreshing to have someone teaching realistic and sensible approaches to having and keeping good health. She is my favorite fitness expert and one reason for that is she's believable and real not some Hollywood star who doesn't have the knowledge and dedication that Denise has. I'm still in the process of reading her book and am enjoying every minute of it. I highly recommend it for anyone who really does want to be Fit and Fabulous After 40.Yours in fitness, Linda Snyder

Summary: This is the best "After 40" fitness book I've read yet!
Review: I always liked Denise Austin's low impact aerobics tapes because they were sane and do-able. Now, Austin provides the same type of good advice in a book that is head and shoulders above other "after 40" books I have read. The theme of Fit and Fabulous After 40 is how to get into the groove of habits that set you up for great health. One important one Austin puts in the book is to start up a four-week plan for exercise. This is important to avoid a lifetime of fitness attempts that are just a series of great beginnings and no follow-through. The inclusion of Kegel exercises is clever. While you are building good exercise habits, you can incorporate simple but valuable pelvic exercises that pay off big time later on. Austin doesn't neglect eating habits and gives tips on avoiding trouble spots when you go to fast-food restaurants. Again, this helps you to build good habits. And there are tips for getting into the habit of taking the right medical tests for preventative health care. In my opinion, this is one of the best "After 40" health books ever written because it has not only the right information, but it presents it so you can develop good habits and keep them. Hurray, Denise! Good job!

Summary: Denise is the best. Her book proves it.
Review: I bought this book and the video Staying Fit at any age. Both have been great assests for me. So motivating in fact, that I get up at 7am now to do her Fit and Lite and Denise Austin works out on Lifetime. Then I flip open the book and plan goals for the day. She is very motivating. I think it's because she's 'natural' ah..no...'falseness'....if you get what I mean. She's just regular and she treats us that way too. A good buy for the money, I certainly recommend it. The receipes are great

Summary: I was unimpressed
Review: I had high hopes for this book. All the material in it is very basic and mostly already known. It boasts a 28 day plan but gives everything piecemeal. By the time you get to the days plans, all it is is 7 days of menu plans. For everything else you have to search through the chapters.

Summary: Good value
Review: I see now the book's on sale. Lots of ideas and tips in here. Nothing earth shaking, but good ideas on how to implement all the things we know we need to do. I like that it's comprehensive--a little bit about a lot of things--skin care, diet, exercise, emotional tips, health, etc. Ms. Austin is inspirational because she is loaded with "can-do" attitude. So overall, a good value.

Summary: The middle-aged women's encyclopaedia
Review: This is a great book because it covers emotional well-being, facial exercise, body exercise, nutrition, and much more. I have not had the time (or maybe I'm too lazy) to follow all the advice, so I suggest that if you buy this book, you should be willing to do the exercises and follow the program. If you are not willing to do this, then don't buy it, because it requires that you follow a program if you want to see results. But it really is a great book.

Summary: Must read book for being over 40
Review: This is the best book that Denise has written. I am over 40 years old. My body is going through dramatic changes. This book does teach you how to take care yourself when you are over 40. It answered my questions that my doctor can't answer. Denise, thank you for caring about your fans! I am recommending this book to all of my friends.
