Although exercise is vitally important to gaining and maintaining optimum health, the very word falls on deaf ears for most of us. Some like to exercise, but honestly, most don't. And Kent Burden knows the story from both sides of the fence. The fact that he's a very accomplished Personal Trainer gives a large amount of credibility to the information he shares in this book.Having spent nearly 2 decades myself on studying good health and nutrition, and having read dozens of books on weight loss, I like the approach the author takes. Don't focus on "exercise", but indeed add movement into your day. Kent's tips on developing new fitness habits are easy to incorporate into anyone's busy schedule, and his use of accompanying photos are an excellent bonus.(You'll like his description of "The Sydney Effect", and how it translates into easy "habit" forming.)In addition to tips on reducing stress, and helpful breathing techniques, there is an additional chapter on strength training - with photos - though not necessary for weight loss. Overall, a very good book from someone that's "in the trenches" when it comes to helping people lose weight, without the burdensome exercise.
