Younger Next Year for Women, 2nd Edition

Life Fit, Strong, Sexy, and Smart - Until You're 80 and Beyond

De: Chris Crowley, Henry S. Lodge, Allan J. Hamilton

Narrado por: Jim Frangione, Brian Hutchison, Suzanne Toren

To mark the 15th anniversary of the best-selling series, Younger Next Year for Women now includes two new chapters on the link between physical exercise and brain health. Their message is straightforward: A program of consistent exercise and eating right not only helps us physically but improves memory, cognition, mood, and more.

Which makes the promise of Younger Next Year for Women even more urgent than ever - the American population is getting older, living longer than ever, and wanting to stay strong, fit, sexy, and smart. This best-selling book shows us how to turn back our biological clocks - how to put off 70 percent of the normal problems of aging (weakness, sore joints, bad balance), eliminate 50 percent of serious illness and injury, and now, become 10 percent smarter.

The key is found in Harry’s Rules, the linchpin of the Younger Next Year Philosophy:

• Exercise six days a week.
• Don’t eat crap.
• Connect and commit to others.

There are seven rules altogether, based on 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, gives the just-as-essential motivation. And in the two new chapters, prominent neurologist Allan Hamilton explains how the program directly affects our brains - all the way down to the cellular level - while Crowley, in his inimitable voice, gives the personal side of the story.

This book also includes important information on menopause, and includes an introduction by Gail Sheehy.

The research is proving every day how and why Harry’s simple but life-changing rules work, improving the quality of our lives, physically and mentally. With an updated look, and new chapters specifically addressing brain health, Younger Next Year for Women is the essential listen for any woman 50 and over.

Recommended by my girlfriend Kathy

I listened to both editions and highly recommend re-reading or listening to the new 2nd edition. Since I was using my iPhone/iPad I easily added using the Audible in-app Notes. Yes there is some really good stuff here and I am following them from eating right to “exercise, care and connect” and they said.

Excellent Read.

The most motivating book about health I have ever read. If you want the last 30 years of your life to be enjoyable this is a must read!

Motivating and hilarious.

One of the narrators was cracking me up - this book was super inspiring. Definitely working out more.

Must Read!!

Amazing insights and communicated in a practical way !
Everyone must know this info and Do It!

Great book, but outdated medical

This was a fabulous book and overall would recommend it for anyone in their 40s or above looking to thrive both mentally and physically. I’m surprised the blue zones are not mentioned in this book around longevity and quality of life. There’s a lot of outdated medical advice especially around cholesterol and fats, which have been linked to sugars in recent years.

Be younger!

This was a very informative book! We will use more of their ideas and take to heart the message.

Enjoying last Third of your Life

This was such a breath of fresh air. A lot of what I have learned in my personal journey of four decades was checked off in this book. Highly recommend it. My husband got this book recommendation by his doctor after er went through a health scare. Now, we both are highly motivated and have already putting into practice what this book recommends. Little did I know that a sweet outcome of it would be closeness for us two. Please jump in and start enjoying your best life yet while getting younger each year.

encouraging advice

I loved the encouragement. Retirement has not set well with me thus far, but I am now looking forward to moving out of this depressed place. thank you!

Understanding increases motivation

Ahhh, I get it now about the science and wisdom of changing my life to have a very good third chapter. Engaging, humorous yet dead serious a bout the facts. I highly recommend it.

Recommend for all women over 40

Very interesting and funny look at the science of aging. As a physician, I would recommend it to all my patients
