At seventy years old, Clarence Bass continues to set goals and physical challenge many people half or one third his age to reach. This is the challenge that Bass enjoys and has kept him training for all these decades. "Great Expectations" is his latest book, in which he shares wisdom that he is, not only through study of fitness and health, but his research into his own life and use her body as an experiment in health, fitness and life.
One of the things I particularly like about Clarence is his complete honesty and willingness to not only his triumphs, but his problems to share. I found the courage to discuss his medical condition, with such blunt honesty and openness. Learn more about how he underwent hip and read about his story of the catheter, where information that, although I hope I never have either crawl, I recognize that as we get older we all face different> Health care and know that we keep in good physical condition we can better address and solve these problems. Clarence tells how he overcame his medical problems, including by displaying the scar from his hip on the front page of the book will undoubtedly encourage others to overcome and triumph over their problems, whatever their age.
Another thing that I really like about all of Clarence's books, this included, is that he not onlysharing of resources, but the practical ways he incorporated his research into his training and lifestyle and then invites the reader to healthy eating and training of their own. Not to copy what he does, but the principles he teaches and learn to take training and eating habits that will ensure your success. I also enjoy the shops and examples he shared with others, especially Dan Sawyer's opinion in the last chapter.
It is also interesting to see how Clarence'seducation has changed over the years. This is a natural progression. As we all age and go through different periods in our physical goals, our training will change well. I really like that Clarence writes about what he does and why he has changed and why.
Here is some of what you learn in this book:
Chapter 1: Great Expectations. More information about the attitudes, expectations and a competitive advantage among other mental elements of education.
Chapter 2:Overcoming. This is the chapter where Clarence tells about his medical problems. He shares his stories and experiences, so you can learn at your fitness level will affect your results, you learn that you are responsible, and that the ultimate responsibility to help your life with you.
Chapter 3: Take It Off, Keep It Off. Learn about metabolism, exercise, fat loss and eating.
Chapter 4: Exercise for Life. Learn about exercise, including strength andaerobic exercise.
Chapter 5: About Training. This chapter discusses the concepts of overload and rest, training rate, slow lift, balance and much more.
Chapter 6: About Diet (not on a diet). An excellent overview of healthy eating. Clarence tells me how he eats and why. The section on each meal to date is very important to know.
Chapter 7: Eating for Peak. Through the years, has photos of Clarence at his peak was very motivating.The pictures of him at 70 still inspire. Many half or one third of his age want to look that good. In this chapter he explains how he prepares his peak.
Chapter 8: Training for Peak. Bass continues his advice on the peaks by sharing how he trains for the peak also.
Chapter 9: Motivation and Change. Clarence says to plan for success and motivation to start. Good chapter with advice not only from the Clarence but some great words of Dan Sawyer, and helpand you get motivated toward healthy living.
"Great Expectations" is an excellent addition to anyone's health and fitness bookshelf. It is motivating and informative. Actually, if you only had room for a couple of health and fitness books Clarence's "Lean For Life", "challenge yourself" and "high expectations" should be on the short list. These three books together provide such a wealth of information and is very motivating to see how Clarenceand his wife Carol have lived these principles, and the success they have achieved because of their healthy lifestyle.
On pages 145-146, Clarence, that some people in their 20s are not relate to his writings in the Muscle & Fitness back in the 80s, but now he is older, and they are in their 40s, they relate to his message more. Maybe they can follow in his footsteps by taking advantage of his methods and example. Personally I have always enjoyed his columns than in M & S.But now in my 40, I once again comes to leave his last three books – the ones I mentioned above. And yes, I have a number of methods, and use it as an example for healthy living for the next three decades. And then in my 70s when I read about how Clarence was to train 100 to motivate me to train even 30 years.
