5 out of 5 stars A long needed wake up call   June 20, 2008
 2 out of 2 found this review helpful

This book is a breath of fresh air in a stale subject area. We all know that we need to eat well and exercise to be healthy. However most books still recommend a one-size-fits-all approach. This book is different.

We as human beings are all biochemically unique. We are as different on the outside as we are on the inside. Our nutrition plans, exercise programs, stress management and lifestyle all have to be different so we can achieve optimal health. On the same page though, we all have commonalities. We all need water, air, food and shelter to survive. This book informs us on the how and the why to do it.

The book covers a vast amount of information without too much technical information. There are also mind maps which cater for the more visual learner. It covers:
1. Food quality
2. Exercise - including flexibility, core function, performance training and energetic exercise
3. Digestion
4. Sleep
5. Customized individual nutrition plans
6. Stress and its affect on the body

Paul has done a brilliant job in teaching us the fundamentals of how to get healthy, not just how to avoid disease. True health is not a magic pill, potion or supplement; it can only be achieved by sticking to fundamental principles and listening to the person who knows your body best - you!

This book is all that you need to understand in order to train ones self. For the trainers out there, like myself, you can learn quite a bit and add depth to your current client's routines. I would consider it a must-have and I currently rank it among the top ten resources that I use nearly on a daily basis. Personal Fitness Training: 5 years as a NASM CPT and CES.

The most interesting information about fitness and what to eat for your body type. Great Book!


4 out of 5 stars Very good but needs a little more!   January 29, 2008
 2 out of 2 found this review helpful

Overall this book is very interesting and educational. It is very detailed and explains how to achieve great overall health such as eating the right foods, exercise, lower your stress, etc.

However, it is overwhelming to me as there are many exercises for different purposes. I have to concentrate to sort out which ones to perform to individualize it. I am more of a class or DVD type of exerciser so that may explain why I feel overwhelmed by it. His DVD "Better Abs, Buns, and Back" is very good and uses a Swiss Ball. You can find it on the CHEK Institute website.

This book, as well as many others I have read, lack in practical recipes for busy families. I wish there would have been some easy, healthy recipes, or at least some resources referenced as far are websites or cookbooks. ( I find the healthy foods as necessary but eating boiled chicken breasts and salads get old fast. Also where we live we do not have access to all the items listed especially fresh organic produce.)
I believe the book kind of leaves you hanging as far as how to take the recommended foods for your metabolic type and turn them into meals for the family.

I don't typically purchase many books but this one is worth buying if you can't find it at your local library. It may just take a little time to sort out what fits for you and what your goals are. You can even take it a step further and see a CHEK practitioner in your area to help meet your health and fitness goals.

I also recommend books by Dr. Joseph Mercola, but check out your local library first.



5 out of 5 stars It's the operating manuel for your body!   January 19, 2008

This book is wonderful. It covers everything you need to know about your body, nutrition, exercising. Easy to read...easy to understand. My trainer recommended it to me and now I give it to friends on their birthdays. It's the best thing I could do for a friend to keep them around for a long time.
