What and Why...On to the How

Younger Next Year is wonderful. It tells us men of a certain age what we need to do in the way of exercise (Chris Crowley) and why we need to do it (Harry Lodge) After you have finished it read "The 8 Colors of Fitness" for help on the "how" dealing with the mental part. Together you have the "what" the "why" and the "how." and you are on your way to exercise success. I've bought copies for a bunch of pals and they've all been pleased.

Maybe not what you want to hear but....

Yep, you need to exercise pretty regularly. Otherwise you start getting decrepit. This book helps inspire the necessary actions in a fairly matter of fact but entertaining way. It is not a how to book but more geared towards motivation and how not to screw up your life. One thing it does miss though is the need for stretching to prevent injury. I still give it five stars since the message is pretty spot on.

If you are over 50 you will find this book fascinating

I found this book, recommended by my doctor (he tells all his patients over 50 to buy it), completely changed my mental approach to excercise. I went from a once a week excerciser to once a day.

Illuminating, funny, NOT LIKE YOUR NORMAL HOW TO BOOKS. Written by New Yorkers who are sympathetic to those who feel they can squeeze by in life without excercise.

I NEVER thought I would excercise like this, but I am a convert.

Don't shoot the messenger

4.0 out of 5 stars Don't shoot the messenger, May 9, 2008
By David Smith "a 66 year old consumer"

My wife and I have believed for some time that exercise and diet are critical to good health. These books and audio-books kick started us toward a healthier retirement.

Written by an MD and his patient, the books offer Dr. Harry's scientific rationale for the proposed lifestyle without being too technical. The patient, Chris, comes off as a bit insensitive, elitist and chauvinistic, but his messages are worthwhile as he tells how he and others have turned their lives around with Dr. Harry's advice.

If you don't believe in evolution, you probably shouldn't buy these books. Much of the science is based on Darwin. If mild profanity or sarcasm offends you, you may have a hard time with Chris. Those looking for a magic solution to better health won't find it in these books. The books supply the logic, the work is up to the reader. People already leading a healthy lifestyle probably won't learn too much.

I've listened to both audio-books. I bought into the exercise early on and listen to the audios as I walk or bike. The men's is abridged and 7-1/2 hours, while the women's is unabridged and twice as long. I recommend listening to the men's audio and buying the women's book to flesh out certain points or concepts. The person reading Chris's part on the men's is easier to take than on the women's.

I've read many of the reader's reviews and find the negative ones fall into four groups. Some were looking for an easy solution and don't want to do the work the book suggests. Others were already leading healthy lifestyles or believe they are and didn't find anything revolutionary in the books. The third group was offended by Chris for a variety of reasons and refused to listen to his messages. The last group felt there should have been specific exercise recommendations. One of the points made by the book was that we need to vary our exercise in order to keep up interest and including all the possibilities would have made a very long book.

My only negative is in the quality of the audio. I found the men's version didn't play well on some of my CD players.

Younger Next Year

I'm not a fan of self help books but had to read this for an assignment. It changed my life. I've given out 11 copies to family and friends. It's a grown up book that talks in a language of real life. It gives you a way to think about how to fight illness and live longer with a better quality of life, not just exsist!

"I have lost 50 pounds over the last nine months by eating less, moving more, and changing the way I think. I am 62 and look better and feel better and have more energy than in the last 15 years."?Ron T.

" I read the wisdom put forth by Chris and Harry . . . [and] my next physical blew my doctor away. I am 74 and in better shape than when I was 50."?Jack S.

"Not a week goes by that I do not utter a silent prayer of thanks that Younger Next Year came into my life. You guys are saving the world one body at a time."?T. G.

Announcing the paperback edition of Younger Next Year, the New York Times, USA Today, Wall Street Journal, and Publishers Weekly bestseller, co-written by one of the country?s most prominent internists, Dr. Henry "Harry" Lodge, and his star patient, the 73-year-old Chris Crowley. These are the books that show us how to turn back our biological clocks?how to put off 70% of the normal problems of aging (weakness, sore joints, bad balance) and eliminate 50% of serious illness and injury. The key to the program is found in Harry's Rules: Exercise six days a week. Don't eat crap. Connect and commit to others. There are seven rules all together, based on the latest findings in cell physiology, evolutionary biology, anthropology, and experimental psychology. Dr. Lodge explains how and why they work?and Chris Crowley, who is living proof of their effectiveness (skiing better today, for example, than he did twenty years ago), gives the just-as-essential motivation.

Both men and women can become functionally younger every year for the next five to ten years, then continue to live with newfound vitality and pleasure deep into our 80s and beyond.
