"The Power-Based Life"

Admittedly, when I chose to read "The Power-Based Life" by Mike Flynnt I didn't realize what kind of a book I had chosen. I didn't realize it was written by a football player who lives and breathes strength training. If I had, I wouldn't have chosen to read it. I have always considered myself a bit of a gym rat but this book was more then I could bear. Too many football/weights analogies. I actually almost didn't finish it. There are many good points made in the book such as checking your attitude, being merciful, and not succumbing to the lie that your body has to degrade with age. "The Power-Based Life" reaffirms my belief that you ought to take care of your body since it is so complexly intertwined with your mental and emotional state. I would only recommend this book to people who love, and I mean LOVE, football. If that isn't you, you'll find yourself skimming for highlights like I was.
