I received this email the other day from my Dragon Boater, Reena. She is in her 60's, around 4'11" and tough as nails. She weight trains 2-3 days a week, doing the basics (squat, press,deadlift, rows, etc., ).
It's about a lifestyle, It's about strength.
And YOU can do it, too.
Dear Coach Steel, I wanted to let you know that as I carried my25 # bag up a steep incline and long flight of stairs from the slow boat on the Mekong River today I exclaimed Thank God for Coach Steel! I never would have made it without your training and in fact, it wasn't 't even that hard--challenging, but doable. Most of the others were 25-40years younger (some close to 50 years younger) but I held my own. If anyone doubts the value of strength training, I 'm here to attest that it makes all the difference!
