Publisher's Summary

Younger Next Year is about how to turn back your biological clock. How to become functionally younger every year for the next five to 10 years, and continue to live with vitality and grace into your 80s and beyond.

Harry's Rules (Harry being Harry S. Lodge, M.D.) are only seven, but they completely reverse the typical path of aging. Exercise six days a week for the rest of your life. Quit eating crap. Connect and commit. And to prove it is his star patient, the no-punches-pulled Chris Crowley, a 70-year-old who left the slippery slope of retirement and turned his life around. Harry tells you what to do. Chris tells you how. And their argument is irresistible.

You're a guy. You have responsibilities. You think about the future, the 401K, the kids' schools. There's one other thing you can't afford not to think about: yourself. Marrying science and reality, Younger Next Year is a convincing and passionate argument that if you train for the Next Third of life, you'll have a ball. Follow its simple rules and you'll find yourself in perhaps the best shape, in mind, body, and spirit, of your life.

Great read from 40 to 80

Both narrators had their own charms and did justice in their reading to the excellent material in the book. Want to stay young well into your twilight? This book has excellent tips on how to manage that.

Entertaining but with purpose

Well voiced, entertaining with great information and presented in a no-nonsense way. Some of the information needs to be updated but the point was always valid. #Audible1

Falls short

Could easily be 1/5 the length and still have all the same information. Lot of useless fluff. Few factual errors that make me question the rest of it. Ex. “Humans have 5 gallons of blood.” No, humans have 5 LITRES, 1.3 gallons. What else didn’t they fact check? The whole book basically says exercise and have some fun with your life.
