Review of Kaboomer
Kaboomer by David Emerson Frost is a fitness book for the older audience. The title itself is a pun on the word "boomer." In a book that seeks to offer lessons on longevity and health for older people, the reader will find a complete book that covers the most diverse topics, including nutrition, stress management, the importance of sleep, exercise tips, and much more. Many images and practical examples make reading more enjoyable and fluid.
What I liked most about this book was how the author conveys information. David Emerson Frost is hilarious and jovial, which is evident on almost every page. One minute, he gives serious, scientific information; the next, he is joking about how he wants to be the last 90-year-old partying wildly. He covers a wide range of content light-heartedly, making everything much easier for the reader to absorb. Practical examples from historical and Hollywood figures also make everything much more accessible and fun.
There is nothing negative to mention here: the book presents high-quality content both in terms of content and editing. Even the graphs and tables are of excellent quality. In many similar books, the reader sometimes has difficulty reading what is written in these tables. The same does not happen here. In over 300 pages of content, I could not find a single grammatical error, which proves that the book's editing is flawless.
Overall, Kaboomer is a well-written and comprehensive book that offers a fresh perspective in an already saturated fitness book market. The author truly lives what he teaches, and you can see how positive it is to lead a healthy lifestyle for longevity and well-being. As mentioned in the paragraph above, there is nothing negative to say here. Therefore, I rate it 5 out of 5 stars. In a world where more than a thousand fitness books are released yearly, David Emerson Frost has created a genuinely innovative book.
I recommend this book to aging adults who want to live a healthier life, that is, achieve longevity with quality of life. The author restricts the target audience to older people, but anyone over 50 interested in the subject can drink from this source of wisdom. There is a lot of positive advice here, and it is all provided in a playful and easy-to-absorb way. The book only contains borderline profane words, and the harsher words are "censored," so even people who don't like this type of language can read this great work.
