In Thinner Next Year, Chris Crowley and nutritional scientist Jen Sacheck spell out a game-changing weight-loss and exercise plan: eat decently and exercise seriously. While Jen outlines a diet to follow (and explains why "dead" food with few nutrients can make us dead, too!), Chris enlists two of the best professionals in the field of sports training - Riggs Klika, Ph.D., a great trainer of both Olympic athletes and older people surviving cancer, and Bill Fabricini, PT, one of the most respected physical therapists in the USA - to work on the 25 Sacred Exercises. Do them, along with some serious cardio work, and, bingo! Drop the extra pounds, get fit, get sexy, stay young. Crowley's inspiring, often hilarious account of the Road to Svelte carries the reader along, making for a diet book that is fresh, readable, new.
