I ran across this title and thought about it. I do spend hours stuck at a desk and at times, just want to break up the monotony so I picked up this gem. I was blown away. This book is written from the heart and the author has first hand knowledge of the importance of exercise. Kent Burden spent 9 months in a wheelchair, paralyzed from the waist down from a football injury while in college. After months of rehabilitation, Kent was able to walk again and has never looked back. His path to physical fitness was forged during that time. With that passion, Kent teaches the same techniques that helped him get into the best shape of his life.This isn't one of those, "Do as I say, not as I do" Rather it is, "Look at what I have accomplished and you can too!" As an author of several books on physical fitness, Kent is always looking for opportunities to help advance the benefits of exercising for the average person out there. And this book is a testament to that commitment.On top of that, after checking out his website, I discovered that Kent Burden is certified as a AFAA Advanced Personal Trainer Certification, AFAA and IFPA Personal Trainer Certification, AFAA Primary Group Fitness Certification, Physical Mind Institute Pilates Instructor Certification, Master Wellness Coach Certification – The Wellness Evolution, Spa 100-Hour Yoga Certification. Balanced Body Pilates Certification. Stott Pilates Certification, Yogafit Training Systems International, Yoga Instructor Training, Levels I & II, Training the Trainers, Fitness Ball Certification, Halcyon Center Massage Therapist Certification, Johnny G Spinning Certification, West International Water Fitness Certification, Biosensory Systems Systematic Touch Trainer Certification. This guy has made a major commitment to mastering the art of physical fitness and I love his passion for it. He serves as an inspiration to anyone on the road to a better, healthier life.I was looking for a book to give me a few tips on how to take a little break from working at the desk. What I found was a book written with humor, intelligence, wisdom, and insight on how to change not only my life and health but my mind as well.This book is a gem and I am grateful to have found it. This book and more importantly, this author is someone I can highly recommend.
