The First 20 Minutes by Gretchen Reynolds Book Summary

The New York Times bestseller that explains how groundbreaking scientific discoveries can help each of us achieve our personal best
Every week, Gretchen Reynolds single-handedly influences how millions of Americans work out. In her popular New York Times column, she debunks myths, spurs conversation, and stirs controversy by questioning widely held beliefs about exercise.

Here, Reynolds consults experts in a range of fields to share paradigm-shifting findings that were previously only available in academic and medical journals, including: 

·        20 minutes of cardio is all you need (and sometimes six minutes is enough)

·        Stretching before a workout is counterproductive

·        Chocolate milk is better than Gatorade for recovery

Whether you’re running ultramarathons or just want to climb the stairs without losing your breath, The First 20 Minutes will show you how to be healthy today and perform better tomorrow.

Keep Moving. Gretchen Reynolds has succinctly corralled reams of research on the importance of movement, activity and exercise in a highly readable and humorous edition. As an Orthopedic Surgeon I see daily the results of inactivity affecting the quality of life in my middle age patients. This book has helped me to sound the clarion call to get people to simply stand up, walk and live a better life. I recommend this book.

Great read. Informative and fun--a great amalgamation of current science, anecdotal insights, bogus myths and fresh take-aways.

Everyone needs to read this book. Fantastic book! So much great information and so inspiring. Everyone should read this book and then get out there and exercise, it's really fascinating how many amazing benefits there are!

Move. If this book doesn't give you the motivation to move then you really must not have a desire to live a quality life.

Excellent book!. This book definitely opened my eyes to the amount of inactivity during my typical day and how deleterious it can be to my overall health. I will also pay attention to how my body seems to react to different types of exercise to determine what activities will give me the most 'bang for my buck'.

Finally, reliable fitness information!. You can find endless opinions about fitness, from warming up to post-workout nutrition to proper footwear. But how much of it is backed up by research, or any evidence? This book not only offers evidence for its fitness advice, but it reaches conclusions that contradict just about everything you learned in gym class or on the track team. I'm sure some people disagree with Ms. Reynolds' conclusions, and by all means read what they have to say. But look for their evidence, and see how it stacks up against the cites in this book.
