The DVD places special attention on the practical application of safe, sensible, effective, and time-efficient strength training protocols that were employed in studies with the Air Force, as well as with more than 1600 previously sedentary men and women between 20 and 80 years of age. The DVD discusses the results of those investigative efforts, including the fact that subjects demonstrated high compliance rates and desirable physiological and psychological outcomes were achieved.
