If you've decided to make healthy changes this year, The Health Assessment Workbook is a great starting point.
Firstly,
let me tell you a little about the author, Karen Morris. Karen is a
fellow health blogger who runs Beyond the Bathroom Scale.
She started the site in 2012 after making a complete lifestyle
overhaul the previous year and losing a tonne of weight (not literally
a tonne, obvs) as well as reversing both hypertension and pre-diabetes.
What an inspirational woman!
I
love Karen's blog so I was honoured when she offered to send me a
copy of her e-book, The
Health Assessment Workbook,
to review. It's a book designed mainly for people planning to start a
fitness or weight loss journey, but can be used by anyone to
calculate their own health and fitness levels at any given time.
The
e-book guides you through how to measure and calculate certain
important statistics, including your BMI (body mass index), BMR
(basal metabolic rate), TDEE (total daily energy expenditure), body
fat percentage and much more. It also explains what these measurements
mean and what to do with the information you acquire during your
self-assessment.
The
great thing about this book is that you don't need to have any prior
health or fitness knowledge to read it. So if you're a complete
beginner who has lived on McDonald's your whole life and have just
decided to start making healthy changes, everything is explained
clearly and concisely by Karen who has done all the research and hard
work for you, so you don't have to.
It
would be a good idea to print the e-book out and fill it in the old
fashioned way, with a pen or pencil (remember those things we used
before computers?) so you have something tangible and concrete to
motivate you on your journey.
I
was really impressed with The
Health Assessment Workbook
and give it a 9/10, which is pretty much the highest rating I could
give (I never give anything 10/10 because nothing in this world is
perfect) and for such a low price it's an amazing resource for anyone
thinking about getting fit and healthy in 2016.
