Description

Choose health. Choose strength. Choose the StrongPath.
Choosing the StrongPath is a book about the most insidious health crisis in the world, Sarcopenia, a muscle-wasting and frailty disease. It impacts all of us as we age, unless we proactively prevent it.

As a world-renowned investigator and case builder, Fred Bartlit has done this once again with this book. He and coauthor Steven Droullard, along with muscle physiology expert Dr. Marni Boppart, want to share a little known fact with the world: You don’t have to fall apart as you get older. Through carefully calibrated progressive strength training and supporting nutrition, you can stave off sarcopenia, along with dozens of other age-related illnesses.

​Using scientific evidence and real-life case studies, Choosing the StrongPath offers a clear path away from a steady decline in the last third of your life and toward a healthier, happier you.

Featured Reviews

I found this book informative and motivational in equal measure. Before reading a plan of action for improving your strength and reducing muscle and strength decline as we age, this book inspires you with case studies and, importantly, a look at mindset and self-esteem as well as nutrition to support the ultimate goal of a stronger old age. Whilst there are references in abundance it’s clearly written and the science or terminology is not off putting. I enjoyed it and it served as a nice reminder that there’s more to muscle than aesthetics and that we have control over how we experience ‘old age’.. Thank you, Net Galley, for the opportunity to review this book.
