A beautiful
book for the aspiring fitness enthusiasts. Unlike the traditional one where
fitness is all about looking trim and fit and especially sporting Six-Pack abs,
this book differs from them which makes it unique/special.
The book
discusses about the reality without beating around the bust which makes you
feel instantly connected with the content. Receiving testimonials Kiran More
and Pullela Gopichand is no mean fact which shows the reach of this book
and the quality of the content it carries.
The book is
divided into 4 stages
Stage 1 –
Set your identity blueprint
Stage 2 –
Lock-n-Load your arsenal
Stage 3 –
Unlock Yourself
Stage 4 –
Let’s get to brass tacks!
Each of
these stages are further subdivided into various chapters which consists of
crisp and quality content.
The book
removes the misconception of the term “Fitness” which according to the present
day is all about sporting a “Six-Pack abs” but the reality is different.
There are quotes from famous personalities like Tony Robbins, Frank Zane,
Napoleon Hill, Henry Ward Beecher, Dr Maxwell Maltz, Vince Lombardi, Aimee
Mullins, Mark Twain among others which gives you a detailed account that is
related to the subject.
The three of
pillars is something you wouldn’t want to miss:
Pillar 1
– The Pillar of Vitality
Pillar 2
– The Pillar of Eating Right and
Pillar 3
– The Pillar of Rest
The book is
all about self-realization. It doesn’t preach but shows the way as to how one could
lead their own fitness regime. There are some Do It Yourself (DIY) tasks which
would help you to self-retrospect as to where you stand.
Loved the
way some concepts were presented with pictorial graphs especially in the
chapter Habits - A Reboot, The 7 Habits of Unfit People and in Some
Ground rules for Habits.
The 7 bad
habits:
1. I will begin only when…
2. I was up till late, let me sleep…
3. I’d like to order salami-sausage
medium pan-crust pizza…
4. Can I get a light?
5. Waiter, pour me another one, pls!
6. Can you give me a tip or two?
7. Munch munch
The harsh
realities of smoking and being alcoholic were explained in detail which shows
the dark side of these tempting habits for which millions are falling prey
every year. The numbers are scary and even if this book acts as a catalyst thereby
changing the habits of few, I would say that it is a grand success. If one is serious
enough about his/her health, I am sure that they would act upon it, sooner or
later, after finished reading this book.
Th 21-Day
Challenge is something one should try as they have proven to be effective
in many cases. As you could see from the above that the book has covered lot of
aspects regarding the health and the habits, each of them are inter-related and
can lead to a healthy life.
The book
also discusses famously about the 7 common excuses we make which includes:
Excuse 1
– I don’t have enough time
Excuse 2
– I can’t wake up early
Excuse 3
– I am A Foodie
Excuse 4
– This is not A good gym
Excuse 5
– I can’t afford this…
Excuse 6
– I will begin when…
Excuse 7
– I am not into fitness
Do you know
what are the 5 traits of a healthy individual?
Wait… If I
keep writing about all of them from the book, then there is no point in buying
the book, isn’t it? Now go ahead and place an order for your copy here
You would appreciate
me later 😊
