5.0 out of 5 stars Matthew's new book, 13 Feb 2007
By Dr. J. Round (uk) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Professor David Jones and Dr Joan Round
School of Sport and Exercise Sciences; University of Birmingham

Matt did his PhD with us at University College London looking at the problems of muscle wasting in the elderly. After that he spent some time at the University of Birmingham where he developed a number of ideas for reducing stress and encouraging people to take up exercise. One of his most important ideas was the realisation that the major component of stress is not being in control. We can be very busy but if we are achieving our goals then the work is satisfying and we are not stressed. On the other hand, if we are achieving nothing, are frustrated and no longer in control of events then we become stressed. Much of this philosophy, mixed in with a flavour of the Far East, permeates Matt's new book, Mind and Body Metamorphosis. In a world where we have so little control over events and our environment, gaining control over our own bodies is a very attractive approach to reducing stress. The book is easy to read and it is clear from the start that anyone can have a go. No special equipment is required and the techniques can be applied in any location. Starting with breath control and progressing through improved aerobic fitness and later developing their muscular strength, readers will soon be able to see and feel the changes and become not only fitter but also stress free.

5.0 out of 5 stars Inspirational , 11 Jan 2008
By A. C. Stuart - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I just wanted to congratulate on such an inspiring book. I have been studying martial arts (specifically Tai Chi and Karate - Blk Belt last year) and have been through numerous books searching for a way to combine some the most effective skills and techniques to promote and maintain overall physical, mental and spiritual well-being.

I can honestly say that your book encapsulates all of these aspects in such an inspiring way. It is easy to follow and so does not discourage with complicated diagrams and seemingly-impossible positions etc.

Your system of building up from foundation is at last the proper way forward.

With a strong belief in oriental philosophy and having studied chinese medicine - I fully appreciate your open and neutral appraoch to defining the benfits and potentials for each exercise. It certyainly lends a degree of gravitas? to the book.

I would like to thankyou for your inspiration that comes from the book and for sharing your many years dedication to self-improvement.

5.0 out of 5 stars Common sense , 6 May 2007
I have been trying for years to find a form of excercise that I enjoy and doesn't require me to spend hours in an overpriced, overcrowded gym doing the latest faddish workout. I have found in Matthew's book the simplest solution to my search. The common sense training has immediate results that are achievable in your own home, without the need for expensive products or equipment. I definitely reccomend this book to anyone of any level of fitness, it works!
