SAMPLE SECTION FROM JOSEPH
What is the biggest mistake people make in relation to their health and wellbeing?
The biggest mistake is that people are not willing to invest in themselves, especially in the area I call ‘health education’. New cars or the latest MacBook Pro will often take preference to our health. If there is one thing you should get out of this book it is that our body is the greatest instrument we have and we need to look after it. So correct education regarding health is incredibly important, and yes, you will have to invest in it just as you would anything else you value.
An example of poor health education concerns the prevalence of aerobic exercise. The best strength coaches and personal trainers in the world all advocate strength and interval training as the most effective methods for losing body fat. We also know that aerobic activity leads to heightened cortisol levels (the stress hormone) which leads to higher levels of body fat. So why do people go jogging or spend hours on a cross trainer when trying to lose weight? The answer of course is poor health education.
