The First 20 Minutes Résumé

The First 20 Minutes: The Surprising Science of How We Can Exercise Better, Train Smarter and Live Longer Gretchen Reynolds

Gretchen Reynolds' New York Times bestseller is an innovative guide to getting fit using cutting-edge science.

Discover the amazing restorative powers of chocolate milk on tired muscles, the pros and cons of barefoot running (and why running can actually be good for your knees) plus the effect music can have on a workout.

Reynolds shows how fidgeting burns 300 calories per day, why it's a bad idea to stretch before a run, and how even just 20 minutes of regular exercise can transform your health. And that lucky underpants really do work.

[Reynolds'] can-do attitude gives a much-needed boost when it comes to throwing off the frowsty threads of winter and leaping into a cool and glamorous spring ... Her USP lies in showing readers how to employ physiology, biology and psychology to train smarter, recover quicker and achieve your fitness goals. -- The Lady
Exercise books are as common as faulty Christmas lights, but there are few that will match this work. -- Sunday Business Post
This is a science book, first and foremost ... you will learn about the current state of physiology, biology, psychology, and the neurology of couch potatoes and of athletes and everyone inbetween. What's cool is how much we now know, and how much we used to know was wrong. The big takeaway is that a little exercise is enormously better than none. And fidgeting is good. -- John * Goodreads *
Armed with the information in this book, readers will be inspired and motivated to reassess their habitual exercise programs and make positive changes. * Publisher's Weekly *
