Description

Co-written with Chris Crowley, The Younger Next Year Back Book follows the alternating chapter format of the #1 New York Times bestselling Younger Next Year and other books in the series. And just as millions of readers positively changed their lives following Harrys Rules in Younger Next Year, the millions of back pain sufferers can find relief following Jeremys rules, including Stop Doing Dumb Stuff, Be Still So You Can Heal, and Stand Tall for the Long Haul. He explains the workings of the spine and muscles, and then why back pain is almost never a disease, per se, but the result of behaviour. He then shows how to change our behaviour, find a neutral spine, and begin a regimen of simple exercises with step-by-step two-colour illustrations to realign our core to virtually eliminate back pain forever. Chris Crowley, in his been-there-done-that-and-you-can-too-damnit! voice, provides all the motivation and patient perspective we need.

Author Bio

Chris Crowley, a former litigator (David Polk & Wardwell), is the coauthor, with Henry S. Lodge, of the Younger Next Year books, and coauthor, with Jen Sacheck, PhD, of Thinner This Year. He lives the life, still skiing double black diamonds and riding centuries on his bike.

Dr. Jeremy James, DC, CSCS, is a Doctor of Chiropractic and Director of the Aspen Club's Back Institute. He became a Doctor of Chiropractic (instead of going into traditional medicine, like almost everyone else in his family) because of his own struggles with sport-induced back pain as a young man. He has worked in the field with serious athletes and others for over a decade. He developed his Behavioral/Whole-Body Method in his busy practice at the Aspen Club Back Institute.
