Both men and women can become functionally younger every year for the next five to ten years, then continue to live with newfound vitality and pleasure deep into our 80s and beyond.

Drinking from the Real Fountain of Youth!

This is an excellent upbeat book that needed to be written. I have always believed that exercise was the key to a happy life...and potentially a long one.

Looking around at the pains people have who do not exercise regularly convinced me that the small price of keeping in shape was well worth feeling great!

Henry Lodge and Chris Crowley have reinforced the ideas I have had for decades, provided new food for thought and encouragement about the importance of keeping in shape.

I enjoyed the back and forth writing between Henry Lodge and Chris Crowley. Lodge does an excellent job explaining the benefits of lifelong healthy living and Crowley provides ways of keeping in shape. Crowley focuses primarily on the exercising that he does. He doesn't adequately address the tremendous number of other possibilities for keeping in shape...but this is a relatively minor shortcoming of the book in comparison to the books primary message of how to live healthy and happy for a long long...time.

Overall, a book that is greatly needed for anyone wanting to feel great and live healthy for a long time!

Younger Next Year

I'm not a fan of self help books but had to read this for an assignment. It changed my life. I've given out 11 copies to family and friends. It's a grown up book that talks in a language of real life. It gives you a way to think about how to fight illness and live longer with a better quality of life, not just exsist!


If you are over 50 you will find this book fascinating

I found this book, recommended by my doctor (he tells all his patients over 50 to buy it), completely changed my mental approach to excercise. I went from a once a week excerciser to once a day.

Illuminating, funny, NOT LIKE YOUR NORMAL HOW TO BOOKS. Written by New Yorkers who are sympathetic to those who feel they can squeeze by in life without excercise.

I NEVER thought I would excercise like this, but I am a convert.

What and Why...On to the How

Younger Next Year is wonderful. It tells us men of a certain age what we need to do in the way of exercise (Chris Crowley) and why we need to do it (Harry Lodge) After you have finished it read "The 8 Colors of Fitness" for help on the "how" dealing with the mental part. Together you have the "what" the "why" and the "how." and you are on your way to exercise success. I've bought copies for a bunch of pals and they've all been pleased.


Don't shoot the messenger


4.0 out of 5 stars Don't shoot the messenger, May 9, 2008
By David Smith "a 66 year old consumer"

My wife and I have believed for some time that exercise and diet are critical to good health. These books and audio-books kick started us toward a healthier retirement.

Written by an MD and his patient, the books offer Dr. Harry's scientific rationale for the proposed lifestyle without being too technical. The patient, Chris, comes off as a bit insensitive, elitist and chauvinistic, but his messages are worthwhile as he tells how he and others have turned their lives around with Dr. Harry's advice.

If you don't believe in evolution, you probably shouldn't buy these books. Much of the science is based on Darwin. If mild profanity or sarcasm offends you, you may have a hard time with Chris. Those looking for a magic solution to better health won't find it in these books. The books supply the logic, the work is up to the reader. People already leading a healthy lifestyle probably won't learn too much.

I've listened to both audio-books. I bought into the exercise early on and listen to the audios as I walk or bike. The men's is abridged and 7-1/2 hours, while the women's is unabridged and twice as long. I recommend listening to the men's audio and buying the women's book to flesh out certain points or concepts. The person reading Chris's part on the men's is easier to take than on the women's.

I've read many of the reader's reviews and find the negative ones fall into four groups. Some were looking for an easy solution and don't want to do the work the book suggests. Others were already leading healthy lifestyles or believe they are and didn't find anything revolutionary in the books. The third group was offended by Chris for a variety of reasons and refused to listen to his messages. The last group felt there should have been specific exercise recommendations. One of the points made by the book was that we need to vary our exercise in order to keep up interest and including all the possibilities would have made a very long book.

My only negative is in the quality of the audio. I found the men's version didn't play well on some of my CD players.
