Fat is an obsession, a dirty word, a subject of national handwringing - and, according to biochemist Sylvia Tara, the least understood part of our body. You may not love your fat, but your body certainly does. In fact your body is actually endowed with many self-defense measures to hold on to fat. For example, fat can use stem cells to regenerate; increase our appetite if it feels threatened; and use bacteria, genetics, and viruses to expand itself. The secret to losing 20 pounds? You have to work with your fat, not against it.

Fitness may be the most failed human endeavor, and exercise science has missed some obvious principles that, when enacted, will turn you into the superhuman that you've always wanted to be. Authors Dr. John Jaquish and Henry Alkire explore the science that supports this argument and present a superior strength-training approach.

Why are so many people drawn to running? Why is running the most common physical activity? What is it about running that empowers so many people? And how can runners harness that power to create a more meaningful life? The Inner Runner addresses these questions and a whole lot more. This book is not about how to get faster or run a marathon; rather, it explores how the simple act of putting one foot in front of the other helps you harness your creative powers.

Journalist Jeff Bercovici spent extensive time with professional and Olympic athletes, coaches, and doctors to find how today's sports superstars seemed to be able to defy the limits of physical aging that inevitably sideline their competitors. Through fascinating profiles and first-person anecdotes, Bercovici illuminates the science and strategies extending the careers of elite older athletes, uncovers the latest advances in fields from nutrition to brain science to virtual reality, and offers empowering insights about how the rest of us can find peak performance at any age.

man's mind was made up before the data was read
Could not finish...No opinions but his. He seems to have everything figured out I mean of course those who use steroids are lazy men who sit at a desk all day and just want to cheat their way to the top. they probably are the reason this poor guy will not sell many books too. Honestly boss try working yourself almost to death just to learn your natural ability will never allow you to be the man of your ambitions.... Then you either look yourself in the face and say well guess I lose not this time but it is not possible for me to win because I didnt have the proper parents.... Or you say I'm not going to die with regret I would rather die in pursuit of my goal than to live less of a man than I should and could be if I will own up and admit there is 0 rust there wilk be 0 reward and if i wish to have not an average life... you know living in a way to never be remembered and suffering with a terminal disease for 20 years till I finally die after burdening everyone I love to broke. Or i take a shot at an extraordinary life living enhanced envied by my peers loved by ladies and able to bless all those who choose to ride along and die maybe 10-12 years earlier than you bit honestly what did I miss?......Your suffering that is all

What a crock of sh*#.!!!
You are comparing bio identical hormones found in our bodies to illicit drugs like heroine.? Are you slow? Do some actual research before u let this garbage spill onto another piece of paper buddy. If I could give it negative stars I certainly would.

Terrible
The author of this book has spent zero time on this book. 18 minutes of minimal research and zero scientific context of how the compounds work. Worst book I’ve ever read involving performance enhancing drugs.
