The Shift

The Shift: A better way to lose weight, build and tone muscle

Easy to understand with quick results ~ Review by Relatively Rebecca

OK, so I've been getting into a lot of books regarding weight loss and eating right. However, I haven't found too many workout books that are for someone like me. I'm busy and hate the gym. The Shift offers a really great alternative to being a constant gym-goer.

I have found it much easier to commit to 10 minutes a day with the Shift's workout plan. I've started with the baseline routine and already feel like I'm making progress!

I really appreciate the info provided on the concepts - it helps everything make sense. And the info is laid out for me in an organized, easy to understand way. I think this book, coupled with eating right is going to make a huge difference in my life for the new year!

Book Description:

Can exercising for ten minutes a day really be enough to reward you with lower body fat, increased muscle / tone, improvements in stamina and overall health? The answer to that question is an emphatic YES! Ten minutes a day is enough, IF and only IF you follow the right program, a program such as The Shift.

The Shift is a culmination of years of research and data effectively and efficiently stitched together by a dedicated engineer who dared to ask the question in the first place. Accepting that his busy lifestyle did not allow for hitting the gym for an hour or more every day was the first step to the development of this program. Prioritizing his health and the desire to keep that health for a lifetime was the second step. In this busy life of ours how can we exercise and stay healthy, especially as we age, every single day? The answer is simple: 10 minutes, at home, on your schedule. The Shift can revolutionize how you think of exercise and have a lasting impact on the quality of your life. So, what are you waiting for? Do you have 10 minutes to spare?

In this busy life of ours how can we exercise and stay healthy, especially as we age, every single day? #theshift

"Wow. This book goes very deeply into the reasons behind weight problems, an gives you an elegant solution. You get the full deal - the science behind the program in the book, an explanation of the routines and timing involved, and excellent illustrations, which make sure you're doing it all correctly. It would suit all manner of people, from couch potatoes to gym junkies, and offers something to everyone in between. Let's face it, if you can't find ten minutes a day you are not really trying. Lots of info, and highly recommended." ~ Review by Stephanie Fairey

Meet Vanessa Chamberlin


Vanessa’s journey toward abundant health began when she was a little girl, growing up in a typical American family, eating the meat, starch and sugar-laden fare that was standard everywhere. She knew it didn’t feel right that she didn’t want to grow up to be overweight and sick like most of the adults around her.

Fast forward to 2008. Vanessa had tried low-fat, low-carb, fen-fen, grapefruit, cabbage soup, and every other fad that grabbed the public attention. The “ah-hah” moment came when she read “The China Study,” T. Colin Campbell’s ground-breaking work that debunked almost every Western food tradition. The next day, literally, Vanessa changed her diet for herself and her family. In an instant she said goodbye to unhealthy food, and hello to a plant-based diet that she calls Plantfire!

A Must Read ~ Review by Diana Taylor

My husband and I, after many years of working on the dream, are finally at a point where we are going to move to acreage and live a more self-sustaining lifestyle that we have dreamt about ever since we were first married — years pass as do the bumps within life and health issues. My husband went through a cancer crisis along with a stem cell transplant and now secondary health issues — living 30 minutes from the nearest health facility is a general concern. This book is a great resource for not only living on acreage and away from nearby medical help, but general good ideas despite living just 10 minutes from the nearest hospital. Dr. Chamberlin offers sound solid advice while providing a touch of humor — clear and concise are my first two requirements within a book and this book delivers along with knowledgeable advice. It is a must read for anyone really — being prepared for the unexpected can mean the difference between panic and calm — life and death.

The Healthy Lifestyle Book

UK USA CDN AU

A very interesting book, sharing very useful methods of cleaning and organizing your home. A very easy to read and follow tips are shared in it. Recommended for anyone, even if you already consider yourself well organized, you'll still find some interesting new ideas. ~ Review by Yukie Davidson

Description:

Our world is so enamored of busyness, our culture places such a high value on multitasking that nobody is ever going to tell you to put silence and stillness on your “to do” list for the day. If we listen to the world and its agenda for us to work, hurry and succeed, we will find ourselves empty, unsatisfied and disconnected from our very own selves. When you want to change your life, you have to think care, love, health and strength among others. This precious thought is lost when you don’t have time or you don’t make time to uplift your habits. As you read this book, ask yourself, “what habit do I need to add to my “to do” list concerning my lifestyle?”

Every healthy routine we adapt yields its tribute of delight. Every change we make corresponds to and authorizes new state of mind, from breathless hopelessness to grimmest sunshine in the midday. It is therefore necessary to uplift our lifestyle. Our daily habits don’t have to be a long hard cognitive process. Even on a minor scale, personal goals are not hard to accomplish with the right information and support. We just have to be vigilant in undertaking the proper habits that would ensure good health.

This book will discuss some of the ways we can practice a lifestyle that attempts to make our relationships with others healthier, a lifestyle that involves caring for others/our loved ones, and maintaining proper hygiene and healthy choices! It recommends habits such as using natural alternative treatments like herbs to boost immunity, spending time with family or spouse to bring relaxation and relieve from routine tension, commitment and faithfulness, strengthening your health by appropriately following health choices like flossing teeth, washing hands and more!

Excerpt – Time with our loved ones

I’ll start with these two quotes:-

• If you cannot get rid of the family skeleton, you may as well make it dance. George Bernard Shaw
• Love your family. Spend time, be kind & serve one another. Make no room for regrets. Tomorrow is not promised & today is short.

If we have the heart to see and cherish it, our families would become our great source of peace and blessing in our daily lives. I feel encouraged by my family’s company as I hold within me poignant moments in my own life, vivid times of joy and fear with my family, moments of ups and downs yet holding on to love, moments of despair strengthened only by knowing that I am never alone, moments that are backlit by mystery, but I am heartened by the great care that rises out of them.

We seem to live in a world of “never enough.” That is certainly what television, movies and advertising tell us. No matter how much we have, a little “or a lot” more would be better. We are told over and over whether we think we’re listening or not, “You will never be truly fulfilled and happy until you get that one job, that one car, that one house. Then you’ll be happy and have all you need.” But when will that be?

Risks of extended sitting

It wasn't what I expected; it was much better ~ Excerpt of review by michaelmac43

When I heard about "Is Your Chair Killing You?" I first thought (wrongly) that it was about the ergonomics of chair design. That spoke to me, because I have chronic lower-back problems and I know that certain chairs are much worse than others. However, I soon realised that the message of the title is that too much sitting down is killing us, whatever type of chair we use.

When it comes to chronic back pain, Burden's bona fides are clear; he's a fitness trainer, yes, but he also broke his back at 19 and was paraplegic for a year.

Is Your Chair Killing You?

Sitting for extended periods of time is as bad for your health as smoking cigarettes. And exercising for 30-60 minutes a day isn’t enough to undo the damage from extended periods of sitting. Is Your Chair Killing You? reveals shocking new research showing that sitting for long periods greatly increases your risk of developing obesity, heart disease, diabetes, stroke and cancer. Our bodies were designed to move constantly over the course of the day, but most of us sit for hours a day at work and at home! Fitness and wellness expert and award-winning author Kent Burden has created brief, simple movements you can incorporate into your daily life to combat the damaging effects of sitting. These simple movements, done standing for 1-5 minutes each hour will burn calories, energize and refresh you, and you won’t even break a sweat; you’ll even improve your back pain. This book is a how-to for weight loss and disease prevention. Read this book–you’ll be healthier in as little as 8 minutes a day.


Author Kent Burden says, “Being a wellness coach and personal trainer, I had clients that seemed to be doing things right. After a day of sitting at work, they would come to me and do their obligatory 30-60 minutes of exercise (lifting weights, doing cardio, yoga, Pilates, etc.) but they often had trouble losing weight and their blood work and physicals were still disappointing considering the amount of exercise they were doing! After reading an article on new research that sitting for extended periods of time may be a disease risk factor in its own right (much like tobacco use), I had an “aha” moment and couldn’t wait to start writing this book. I gathered all the research available on this breakout new field called “sedentary studies” and “Is Your Chair Killing You?” was born. I created short, simple movements that can be done over the course of the day at work or at home without breaking a sweat.”

In 2014 Is Your Chair Killing You? took home the honorable mention at the Los Angeles book festival in the non-fiction category and the silver medal award in the Dan Pointer Global Ebook Awards. The book has received critical acclaim for not just pointing out the health risks that extended sitting presents, but giving real world practical advice on what to do to protect yourself. Loaded with simple exercises you can do right at your desk and a schedule for doing them, this book is the handbook for staying healthy in the modern world.
