Sedentary Nation: The answers aren't found in the new millennium, they're in 1910: Sifu Slim's Guide to Getting Off the Sofa

If you don't take care of your body, where are you going to live? Is the modern body's only job to carry around the head, where so many live these days? How can you reconnect mind, body, and spirit and get euphoric while are doing it? "Sedentary Nation" recalls pivotal moments of the history of physical movement. Despite modernism and the decreasing use of the physical body, the book shows how almost anyone can easily benefit from a program that has a payoff of improved health, youthful look and energy, better sleep, and clearer thinking without the physical toll and battle fatigue that often accompany other approaches to wellbeing and fitness. Expanding on that, the author details how, as Chinese philosophy explains, you can change your thinking and the body will follow. By sharing knowledge and practices from those he respects the most and cites throughout the book, including Jack LaLanne and Bruce Lee, Sifu Slim describes his own journey of self-mastery. "Sedentary Nation" is the result of several hundred interviews and over a decade of research. It stands as both wellness guide for the busy, modern era and humorous memoir of a life spent living the wellness walk.
