Not for the fit and active
I hate to criticize this book since Mr. Kelley seems like a heck of a nice guy and does offer good information. BUT...much of the information about the surgery I got from my surgeon, pre-surgery classes at the hospital,hospital-provided literature and free sites on the web. I am 53 years old.I had my hip replaced Dec. 9, not using cement but natural knit. By Jan. 21I was walking without a cane or crutches. But, I am younger and for 9months prior, worked out hard - treadmill, stepper, weights, stretching.Within 10 days of surgery I was back at upper body weight work. I found theexercises from my therapist adequate. So if you are younger and used toexercising, this book is not for you. Older, not used to exercise, it maybe helpful. It also does not mention aquatic therapy, a great vehicle,particularly for older hip patients.

Practical, sensible program to help those with new hips.
If you have had your hip replaced you must exercise sensibly and under medical supervision to get back to good health. Like me, Jack Kelly,had a new hip. We know what is like to recover from this successful operation. Tohelp others recover quickly Jack devised a simple set of basic exercisesthat increases flexibility, bone density, and energy and helps you loseweight and control your stress level.The exercises are well illustrated,take 30 minutes on 3 days a week, and will become an essential part of yourlife after a few weeks when you see the benefits they bring. This specialbook adds importantly to the experience of hip replacement of the 14stories told by patients in my own "All about hip replacement". ... Read more
