Book Description

December 15, 2009
An owner's manual for the human body.
*for all ages, makes and models
*use only as directed
*one size fits all

Satisfaction, strength and health by sleeping in, eating frequently, and playing like a child.

(from the introduction)
This is a book for humans. If you are human, this is for you. (If you are a dog or cat, bear or otter, reptile or other homo sapienally-challenged being, stop reading immediately. Besides, you already know what's in this book. The more subtle distinction of man or woman, child or elderly, motivated or lazy, bored or busy, over- or under-educated, artist or executive, does not alter the relevance of what you re about to read: If you are a human, this information will apply.
In a way, this book was designed to perform the opposite function of a traditional book (a bizarro-book, if you will); its goal is to help you reduce the already bloated amounts of information fed to you by the diet, nutrition, and exercise industries much of which is outdated, inaccurate, misleading or incomplete. We as a species are rapidly becoming as obese and inundated with data as our bodies are with food. Your best defense is knowledge, so you may quickly discern useful information from marketing gimmicks, outright scams, or otherwise legitimate programs that range anywhere from inefficient to downright dangerous. And that is the goal of this book: to teach you to fish, rather than sell you an auto-renewing fish subscription or the latest in fishing pole technology, as it were.

5.0 out of 5 stars Magnificent Guide, February 3, 2010
By 
Joseph H. (Pittsburgh, PA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Brain Over Brawn: Smart Solutions to Regain and Maintain Strength, Health & Youth (Perfect Paperback)
Brain over Brawn provided a fantastic overview of how an individual can stay fit and healthy, all the while remaining reasonable, well-researched, and practical. The prose is concise, fun, and easy to follow, and the advice is indispensable. I expect this to become a sort of everyman's (and woman's) bible for fitness. It's that good.

5.0 out of 5 stars Finally - Fitness for the Rest of Us!, February 10, 2010
By 
RedSoeur (Minneapolis, MN) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Brain Over Brawn: Smart Solutions to Regain and Maintain Strength, Health & Youth (Perfect Paperback)
In Brain over Brawn I have FINALLY found a guide to fitness that doesn't make me feel like a loser for not already being fit in the first place! This book starts at square one and doesn't shame you for not getting to square ten in a week. Instead, it provides honest, basic and easy-to-understand information on how to make manageable changes for a healthier life - whether you want those changes to be big or small. And it's a fun read - this is the only fitness book I've ever read that made me laugh out loud and feel like having fun while getting healthy is actually possible. A definite buy for my 73 year-old, recovering-from-heart-surgery father and my 70 year-old arthritic mother - because it can make a difference, even for them.

This review is from: Brain Over Brawn: Smart Solutions to Regain and Maintain Strength, Health & Youth (Perfect Paperback)
This book is a great summary of tried-and-true nutrition and exercise principals. It's factual, entertaining, and easy to read. It should be required reading for youth and anyone considering getting in shape.
