Wayfinding - Food and Fitness

By: Hugh Howey

Narrated by: Graham Vick

I've blogged about my fitness routine, and readers have asked for me to go into more detail about how I have gotten in shape and how I maintain that shape. This work is the result of those requests. It is full of controversial claims, so be warned. I truly believe that if people follow the handful of principles in this short read, they will improve their health and change their lives.©2015 Hugh Howey (P)2016 Audible, Inc.

Practical Advice

I thought Wayfinding - Food and Fitness was really good. In this installment of Wayfinding series Howey writes about fitness and diet, focusing on current weight loss and fitness theories and the routines he used to get in to shape after he found out about some family genetic health issues.

He gets right to the point in a no-nonsense manner, sometimes in a controversial way (he issues warnings) when he addresses subjects such as the rising obesity rate in America and on the flip side, anorexia. I've heard much of the dietary information he discusses but I thought some of the fitness and exercise ideas he presented were novel and applicable for anyone.

This was a short read but full of practical advise and interesting perspectives.

Useful tips and common sense concepts

As a nutritionist I agree with most of the advice and commend the clear logic and well placed focus points, warnings and encouragements.
I enjoyed reading about the universal beauty ideals (0,7 waist/hip ratio, etc.) and how we can navigate the minefields of acceptance vs. going towards the ideals. Well put!
