Book Reviews of How to Eat, Move and Be Healthy!
Book Review: Excellent for professionals!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
Very well illustrated and written. Anyone can read this book and get great value from it. However, I will say that I think it would have been better to have broken this up into a number of books. There is a tremendous amount of information in it, which for many practitioners is probably fine, but for the public I think it can be problematic.
The author Paul Chek has largely focused on training fitness professionals like myself and other Physical Therapists, as well as sports conditioning coaches. This is one of the few public works he has put out and I'm glad he did, as I would prefer that my clients read this instead popular magazines, which I recommend they throw out. There is so much conflicting information within popular magazines and many of those articles are written by people who simply want some publicity. It can be a good marketing vehicle to write an article or give a presentation, whether the supposed "expert" knows what they are talking about or not. Just writing an article seems to make a person an "expert."
Paul Chek on the other hand has spent over 20 years in practice and training industry professionals, which is a very tough crowd, given that they have a background in this area. I have a number of his courses, but I started in 2002 with one of his all day seminars. That seminar revolutionized my training philosophy and methodology. I've been a Certified Personal Trainer with a Medical Exercise/Post Rehab background since 1998 and since taking his courses for credit I have created amazing results for my clients. He has so many courses out there for professionals that he created a five level training/study program in functional exercise and a three level program in nutrition and lifestyle. He is rigorously scientific and holistic, which makes a very powerful pair capable of sure shot results that last a lifetime. He has a thorough understanding of the human body and how important individually designed programs are, instead of the "cookie-cutter" programs and diets you see plaguing the market today. For this reason, his book has assessments that you can take so that you know where you are today and then learn what's the next best step for you.
I highly recommend this book for both the general public and for fitness professionals, as well as nutritionists. I would say that the public should be patient with it and spend all the time they need just practicing and developing facility with one chapter before going onto the next.
