Younger Next Year Gift Set for Women

Younger everyday.
I was given this book for my birthday. Although I think I am young, the aches and pains are starting. My vision is going and I am not as strong as I once was. I felt that I was enormously productive, always learning, working, taking care of the family. The fact is I am changing. Naturally. This book is very affirming while encouraging. It is also humorous. I have purchased this book for my family and friends, male and female. I believe it to be true. I must exercise my body and mind to stay connected to my loved ones and live out my life as a vibrant, interested and interesting person. As the authors remark that we can all hear the waterfall as we approach the end of our lives, I intend to enjoy the magnificent views on the way.

A must read
My chiropractor recommended this book as she was loving the book herself. Although I am a fairly fit 60-year-old woman, after reading most of the book its clear what I need to do to stay healthy until my 80s or 90s. And best of all its a well written book filled with humor, and while science is not necessarily my thing, I loved the way the human body is explained so simply. I am recommending the book to all of my friends, and purchased the men's copy for my husband, who is reading and taking the advice seriously.

Great book!
This is a great book packed with so much information. But best of all, IT IS FUN TO READ! How often do you get a self-improvement book that is scientifically backed up, but is so much fun? I kept laughing out loud. This is one self-help book of which I keep picking up and rereading parts. I ended up ordering a number of copies and giving them to all the women in my family. I will admit I haven't done everything the book said to do, but at least it has me moving in a more positive and healthful direction.

Sexist...
The book is an important reminder about fitness and lifestyle choices, but the parts by Chris Crowley were absolutely painful to read. Seriously... Women should rethink getting divorced because we live longer with a partner??? He admits that "Old Fred" is dead weight, looking to be taken care of, not giving as much as they're getting, and women are sick of them, yet women should continue care taking perfectly able men instead of being free from that stress, which will definitely kill you. Je admits that just having a dog has the same benifits. I have an older edition and hope that post #metoo it's been rewritten for newer editions. Sounds like " there there little lady," condescending and annoying in an otherwise good book.

Must Read Book for Middle Aged Women
I read the "guys" version of this book. This is the women's version. I gave it to my wife after she saw me reading the "guys" version. Wow! This book and its companion for guys by the same title, is changing our lives. My wife and I are both 65 years old and not in shape.Authors Chris Crowley and Dr. Henry Lodge, M.D. get it just right. No gimmicks. No B.S. No silly products to buy, diets to follow or goofy mantras to remember. This is a "straight up" serving of the truth - the shocking truth for many of us who needed to hear it said this way.

Not for the faint of heart!
This is an older book but the concept still holds true. I do believe that following the prescription for a healthy lifestyle is carried to the extreme and most will be unable to keep it for a lifetime. There seem to be many converts but I would imagine that there are an equal number of people who would fall somewhere short on the spectrum.

This set is great. I like the Daily Journal idea and the book itself is full of information about why exercise is important and how it helps you to feel younger. It's very motivating but I feel like it's just basically that... a lot of motivating reasons to exercise more. Kind of redundant when you think about all the other information out there about this. I think it's common sense that you'll feel better if you look after your body... anyway, for motivating me a bit more, I give it 4 stars. Plus, I may start using the Journal if I ever remember to take it to the gym with me!
