Younger Next Year

Younger Next Year: A Guide to Living Like 50 Until you are 80 and Beyond

Chris Crowley & Henry S. Lodge, M.D.


I started reading the sequel to this book which is called ' Younger Next Year for Women', which the authors wrote in response to constant requests from women clamouring for a female version.  And, as much as I was totally captured by the 'rules' espoused by the authors, I couldn't better the reviews from people who have read and followed 'Harry's Rules', in the men's version.  Read below to see if this book sounds like something your partner could would appreciate reading.

It truly is the best anti-aging book around and details how a couch potato on the advice of his doctor slowed his biological clock and regained much of his lost energy.

I have been trying for years to get my husband interested in exercise and eating better. I gave him this book just before he went on a trip and he actually read it. He is now a changed person - he rides his bike regularly and purchased a heart monitor. This weekend he bought a set of weights and starting this week he is going to my personal trainer for three sessions to get a schedule he can follow at home. I saw him the other day rereading sections of the book. Nothing has worked to motivate him until he read this book! Thanks so much to the authors.

First of all, this book is funny and well written. The thing that really stood out for me in this book was that it gives you an accurate idea on what to expect from age 50 on. Being in my late 50s, I can see from personal experience that these authors know what they are talking about. Living in Las Vegas I see men with what we call in Las Vegas "buffet bellys" (huge gut) I seen old people so overweight and out of shape that the only pleasure they have left is gorging themselves at buffets. The science in this book makes very good sense. This book should be a "must read" for anyone entering their 50s-60s who is intrested in staying alive, possibly missing some of the scariest of the diseases and being able to have a sex life in their later years. I cant recommend the book enough for that age group of men and women. I meant to give this book 5 stars, but I cant seem to change the ratings
