The best information and advice about exercise and more

I have read many books and listened to many audio books about exercise, healthy nutrition and anti - aging. This one is by far the best especially the section about exercise. Lots of books write about the benefits on health of regular proper exercise. Younger Next Year goes beyond this by describing the biology of exercise, strength training, aerobic and unaerobic exercise, burning fat vs. burning sugar, why a heart rate monitor is necessary for any kind of exercise, how to use a heart rate monitor, how to test your cardiovasular fitness, an exercise program for beginners and another one for the already fit, mistakes to avoid in exercise, the importance of exercising within your heart rate zones, how often to do what kind of exercise, the risks associated with overexertion and training above 80 % of your maximum heart rate per minute, the benefits of skiing, cycling, rowing etc. particularly for maintaining good health and for becoming younger next year are very clearly explained. The information and advice on exercise is relevant not only for middle aged and old people who want to benefit from exercise but also for young people even for athletes and participants of various competitive sports. Because it is based on a knowledge of the biology of exercise. Moreover in my opinion a lot of performance sports people unawaringly exercise in wrong ways for short term performance gains at the expense of their long term health. I came across many sports coaches who don't know many of the things explained in Younger Next Year about exercise and sports. They too certainly have a lot to learn from this book / audio book. A very large section of the book is devoted to exercise from the beginning.

The other things needed to be younger next year according to the book are proper nutrition, developing and maintaining friendships and social relationships by participating in community activities, touching your loved ones, having hobbies, playing, taking care of your finances by spending less than your income and intelligently investing the surplus etc. They are all important and necessary. Proper nutrition does not mean dieting. According to the authors diets don't work. All you need to do is to stop eating crap.

All these topics are explained in the audiobook by two co - authors : Chris Crowley a 70 year old ( oops ! 70 year young ) guy and Henry S. Lodge MD, Chris's doctor who is an expert on the biology of exercise and nutrition. They take turns to speak so the listener does not have to listen to the same voice throughout the audio book and get bored. Chris gives a lot of real life cases in a humorous and sometimes sarcastic way without offending. He uses language very skillfully. So does Henry. You enjoy yourself while learning a lot by listening to these gentlemen from the audiobook. I listened to it over and over again.

You don't have to be unfit to benefit from Younger Next Year. You may discover and confirm that you are exercising and eating properly to a large extent already. I discovered that my exercise program was 80 % correct already. I started correcting the 20 % by starting to do low and intensive aerobic exercise in my heart rate zones. I also decided to buy a heart rate monitor and am researching one. The correctness of my nutrition was confirmed by this book. However, I need to work more on my finances and developing social relationships.

This is a book / audio book that should be read / listened to regulary once every few weeks to stay on the right track. I strongly recommend it to people of all ages. I also visited the web site www.youngernextyear.com by the same authors, it is also very good. You may want to take a look at that too.

life Changing Read

If you are feeling old get this book. It will give you hope again. What a great job by the authors. Not anonther inter-personal babble book. This book is full of facts that will help you enjoy life again. I am going to the gym and feeling much younger. Was always active until I was told at 53 I had cancer and 18 months to live. It was a mistake but really affected me mentaly. This book got me out of the self-pity hole I had dug for myself and back to living life again. I don't usualy get so excited by a book. I have bought a copy for my 60 year old brother and 74 year old neighbor. Both of them feel the same way.

Not new info

Paperback: Each page fell out of the book as I read the page. OK for motivation to start a program. The new-age pseudo-science is boring.
