Product Description:
'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.
Customer Reviews Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Younger Next Year
I enjoyed this book very much.I've always been an exercise enthusiast, and my traditional thoughts were that if I were exercising 3 to 4 times a week, I was doing great!Now, I'm committed to exercising at least 6 days a week!I will run, ride, swim, or do resistance training at least 6 days a week from now on!The book really rationalized the purpose for exercise for me and it will for you too!
Rating:  - No Exercise "Fence Sitting" Allowed
The difference with this book is that the authors recommend exercise with evangelical fervor AND give hold-your-hand, even comedic, instructions and wisdom.But their homespun approach does not hide the fact that they are dead serious.
The book does refer to some studies, but basically the authors humorously and seriously deal with the physical "decay" of aging.And, yes, they discuss sex.No research studies are footnoted.I just assume they think the reader would not be interested; ... Read More
Rating: - An entertaining read and good for you, too.
A very well-written agenda on diet, exercise, and outlook for those of us no longer in our youthful 40s.It's enjoyable because it is not a diet book or an exercise book.It is a personal philosophy interestingly told by an ardent advocate and backed up with enough science to validate his prescriptions for living a healthy and robust life into your 80s.Told from a male perspective, but applicable to female readers.I believe there's a female version out, but I haven't read it.
Rating: - Life changing book...if you can follow it's advise
I've ussally don't like this kind of health nut book., but something about the couple of except pages sounds interesting. but this is one of the best I've ever read. (not really saying much there)
This is interesting , it talks about how and why people age. and how exercise at certain level will work. I took the advise and joined a gym. exercise 5 times a week. If nothing else, I'd surprise myself with what I'm capable now vs 6 weeks ago.
I'd like it so much , I bought 5 books and gave it ... Read More
Rating:  - Interesting if you can stomach the evolutionary BS
It has been long known that exercising is good for you. This book drills that message home. I found it somewhat entertaining but also found the constant references to evolution to be very disappointing and I consider that portion total and utter BS. Still worth $5 though.
