Help: I'm Being Held Prisoner by My Couch

FINALLY!  A health and fitness book for BOOMERS and it isn't full of exercises and eating plans!


As part of the Baby Boomer generation, we all know that proper exercise and nutrition are good for us, right?


So why don't we all do it?



We all have our reasons…what are yours?


• I’m too busy...

• I'm too old to start now...

• I don't have the energy...

• I'm injured...

• I don't care...

• It doesn't matter how much I exercise, I'll still be unfit...

• I've never been an athlete...

• I'm intimidated by gyms and the people there...


In Help: I’m Being Held Prisoner By My Couch! fitness expert Maarten Van Nus examines the mind-body connections that keep Boomers from exercising and then he helps you recognize and examine your own connections, as well.


He explains how to retrain your mind and body to overcome social expectations, injury, inertia, poor self-image, childhood and other thought patterns to become free of the chains that currently bind you from living a healthy life.


This book is NOT full of exercise routines and stringent diets. It focuses on understanding the reasons we don't want to exercise -- which are determined in our mind, either consciously or unconsciously -- and then helps us discover ways to change our minds to change our activity and eating patterns.


Baby Boomers are the first generation in history that has the longevity, time, and money to live for years after their retirement or to keep working well past the traditional 65 years. Boomers want to remain active and fit enough to enjoy all the things the world has to offer. This book encompasses the mindset that Maarten has been using in his clients’ training programs as well as his own. His philosophies and techniques are supported by scientific research and include some of the newest and most successful ideas about living a healthy, long life without spending all your time thinking about your fitness.
