subject: Synopsis Of My Book And A Little About Me [print this page] Intro Intro
"Think and Grow Fit:|" (a reasonable person's guide to getting fit and staying that way forever) argues that you really only need two things if you want to stay fit forever. First is some good friends and a spouse, who want the same as you, and therefore don't call you Health Nut for doing so. Second is a fitness lifestyle that is as regular as the daily brushing of your teeth. That may not sound like much, but in today's culture, the world of the Normal Majority, it is HUGE. This book is about using your head to get on the right track and then stay there along side of like-minded people. The whole idea is that once you start you will stay at it, just like you have always done with your toothbrush. Your friends and your own body will thank you for that.
Autobiography
I'm all about fitness for all of us, largely because our country is experiencing astronomical health care costs which can be traced back to so many folks just being in bad shape. Yet, I am no saint. I myself was obese 45 years ago and took 15 years to win a state power lifting trophy 30 years ago. The good news is that I kept at it and as a result that I am doing more athletically today than I ever did when on the swim team in high school. Like my idol, the far superior 95 year old Jack Lalanne, I am living proof that you only get only better with time. That may sound like the popular adage of fine wine getting better with age, but when it comes to athletic living, it's an assertion that the Normal Majority thinks could only come from the mouth of a Health Nut.
