Take Charge: Fitness at the Edge of Science
Clarence has provided a thought-provoking book that fearlessly flies in the face of a number of carved in stone beliefs currently being eroded by the waves of research. It is refreshing to read a text that examines the old truths under the harsh yet revealing light of scientific discovery.Joseph F. Signorile, Ph.D., Professor of Kinesiology and Sports Sciences, University of Miami, and author of Bending the Aging Curve --Editor's reviewI like to think of this book as the untold solution to this nation s health-care crisis. If more people in this country would take charge of their own health and fitness, their own quality of life would go way up and national health-care costs would go way down. This book gives everyone the tools that they need to make that happen. Backed by the most cutting-edge scientific research, Take Charge also tells the reader how to apply the lessons of those studies to improve their own training. I have read all of Clarence s many outstanding books, and this one is clearly the best of them all. Perhaps more than any other fitness author out there, Clarence lives what he writes. Once you check out the photos of Clarence at age 75, you will want to read this book if for no other reason than to answer the question, How in the world does he do that?Daniel Keating, Tyrrell Williams Professor of Law, Washington University in St. Louis. --Editor's review
