The Book: Member Blog > I read the book

I read your book "Getting Back to BASICS" and particularly liked Part 5: Manage Stress to Stay Healthy. There were a lot of good techniques to help me deal with stress. I've been out of work for over a year and the stress is almost unbearable. The part about keeping your sense of humor also reminded me that humor is good medicine. No matter how down I feel, laughing makes me feel a little better. The book is good, Thanks.

Hey Brad, I'm also out of work for nearly one year. The book is what it says it is, a guide to help you get back to basics. No talk about supplements, the newest fad, just sensible advice we should follow. I've been doing the resistance training program at home three times each week and I'm starting to see results.

People told me I had no sense of humor until I read, The Book. Now I can tell a joke and occasionally get a laugh. This is the first book I ever read that gave me a step-by-step on how to tell a joke. That's pretty funny right there.

The Book is not the best book I've ever read, but it did give some good advice. I've been battling a weight problem all my life - and The Book did give me some direction. Maybe I'll try the weight program along with my walking.

I just ordered the book because my friend Nancy is doing so well. She started the resistance training program illustrated in the book and is doing so well. She looks amazing.

I've been doing the resistance training program for several months now at home. I bought some light dumbbell weights and I follow the routine carefully. It's easy to do and I feel great.

It's a nice read. In plain language even I can understand.

I started using light weights and following your exercise program.

I really liked the chapter on the unlikely piece of the wellness puzzle. You're so right that money problems are often the root cause of health problems. Probably more so today.

I little simplistic but many practical ideas.

The weight training program is easy to follow and just right for an old geezer like me. I'm 67 years old and feel pretty good. I try to eat right and exercise almost every day. This book is helpful.
