Book Reviews of Keep the Connection: Choices For a Better Body and a Healthier Life
Book Review: You CAN make the connection!
Summary: 5 Stars
Thats what this book should have been titled! I disagree. It's not just the same as make the connection. I found Make the connection just plain ole' diet info. Great info, but nothing new. This book's section on motivation was astounding! What an eye opener for someone who has struggled with the mental part of making the decision to finally change my life. This book is definately something to pick up for anyone who has had it with diets. There's so much more to it! Life changing!
Summary of Keep the Connection: Choices For a Better Body and a Healthier Life
The #1 New York Times bestselling fitness expert's classic about keeping weight off so that you reach a new level of health and fitness.With his recent #1 bestseller Get With the Program!, Bob Greene has shown millions how to get real about their weight, health, and emotional well-being.
In his national bestseller Keep the Connection, now updated with a new jacket, Greene shows us how to keep the momentum going. First, he inspires you with a section on how to get yourself started and how to move to the next degree of mental and physical fitness. Then, Greene shows you exactly what exercises you will be doing to reach your goals. Each exercise is illustrated with photographs that show you just how to make the moves, so you get the maximum benefit from each one. Finally, there is an entire section of delicious, healthful recipes that make it easy to lose weight as you follow the exercise program.
Keep the Connection is a book that deserves to be on the shelves of everyone who wants a better body and a healthier life.
Bob Greene is best known as Oprah Winfrey's personal trainer and coauthor of their bestselling Make the Connection, which is about taking your first steps to fitness and weight loss. Now he's back with the next phase: elevating your fitness program, staying motivated, and creating permanent change. "You create yourself through choice," says Greene, and the way to overcome old habits or laziness is to make every choice conscious, whether you're opening the refrigerator door or deciding whether to skip your workout because it's raining. Keep the Connection is, as you'd expect, full of exercises--but many of the exercises are mental. Greene holds that you can't change until you understand yourself, so he offers several mental exercises to help you become more self-aware. After you've had your mental workout, Greene describes the four components of fitness: flexibility (with photos of stretches), cardiovascular power and endurance, abdominal and back fitness (with photos of a variety of crunches), and muscular strength and endurance (illustrated using Cybex machines). Greene also outlines a sensible nutrition plan based on the food pyramid, and gives 18 recipes.
The book is filled with anecdotes about the people Greene has trained. (Judging from the number of his clients, this man must never sleep!) If you're ready to make changes that will improve your body and enhance your life, this book will help you do it. --Joan Price
