A warm welcome and thank you for sharing in our joy and success! Please spread it far and wide: on New Year’s Day 2022, AIOS Publishing will release a groundbreaking book, 61 Is The New 41: Crossfit Yourself To Health And Well-Being, by 61-year-old former military/civilian special-operations soldier, Chris Winter. Now’s the time for you to read it, absorb its goodness, decide you love it, and then write/blog/talk/shout about it. Thank you! Surprisingly, there are no books on how to start the most popular and fastest-growing fitness routine in the world: CrossFit. Chris Winter's book expertly fills that void in the world of CrossFit, general exercise, health and fitness. Americans are stuck in the worst health crisis in our country’s history, due to poor nutrition, lack of proper exercise, overconsumption of prescription pharmaceuticals and recreational drugs, and improperly feeding an already unhealthy gut microbiome. The five leading causes of death unceremoniously claim our loved ones at an unprecedented rate each year. Heart disease took Chris Winter's beautiful wife in the summer of 2018. 61 Is The New 41 has an ambitious goal: to remedy these and other health issues by showing people how to take the initiative and get off the couch, and safely begin a new exercise program. He also shows how to get better educated on exercise, nutrition and taking care of the most important organ system in your body, the mysterious gut microbiome. The book spotlights more than 200 recent medical and scientific references to encourage further reading and research, especially on the secret gut microbiome and its connection to other organs and organ systems in the body. The results will shock and inspire you. When thinking about bad health, please consider an old-time naturopathic adage: “Disease begins in the gut.” While not popular in or recognized by mainstream medicine and science, recent research results are slowly uncovering the true nature of disease in humans. Call it a "gut check" for mainstream medicine and science. 61 Is The New 41 is not just for 60-somethings! It's for any beautiful soul who wishes to improve their health, fitness and well-being, and begin studying their own gut microbes. 61 Is The New 41 is not a self-help book but rather a moving story of pain, near-death encounters, redemption and success. It discusses the importance of exercising for fun, health and fitness and not simply training for competition. Big difference!

Save yourself years of trial and error by reading and practicing what is revealed in this informative book!” —Glen Heggstad, featured on The National Geographic Channel and author of Two Wheels Through Terror and One More Day Everywhere 61 Is The New 41 explains what you can expect from CrossFit, how it affects your mind, body and soul, and reveals many of the untold benefits from exercising consistently over time. Many of those gems come directly from elite 60-something CrossFit Games athletes and novice 60ers who have taken a leap of faith and dived right into CrossFit.

Though not well known, 100 trillion microbes in your gut determine how you think and feel, what you eat and drink, and how your body responds to myriad stimuli and signals. The kahuni is more than just a second brain, it's your ambassador to the outside world. Winter calls it "the most important organ and organ system in your body . . . eventually, mainstream medicine and science will catch on." For curious souls, there’s a dedicated chapter on the human subconscious, dreams and dreaming, and how you can use them as your mentor and guide on your CrossFit journey and throughout your life. Revolutionary! The author emphasizes that CrossFit is not the scary training program you've probably heard about. It's not all about training like an Olympic athlete 24/7 for years, only to burn out at age 30. Although CrossFit, Inc. does not currently promote it, you can exercise instead of train. Your routine can be tailored to fit your body, goals and ultimate needs. CrossFit is life, Amigos! Chris Winter said: “After decades of pushing my mind, body and soul to breakdown on military and civilian special-operations missions, plus dealing with the sudden death of my wife three years ago, I made a plan to radically change my life and lifestyle. No more alcohol. No more cigarettes. No more potato-couching. No more bingeing on Netflix for months on end. By conscious choice, I changed how I perceived and appraised everything. Daily exercise, yoga and a new attitude and purpose rescued me from terminal ruin. I’m now sharing my new-found discoveries with the world. Thank you, CrossFit!” The eBook, paperback and hardback versions are available for pre-order on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Powell's and other online and brick-and-mortar bookstores.

WASHINGTON, DC, USA, August 10, 2021 /AIOS Publishing/ — A warm welcome and thank you for sharing in our joy and success! Please spread it far and wide: on New Year’s Day 2022, AIOS Publishing will release a groundbreaking book, 61 Is The New 41: Crossfit Yourself To Health And Well-Being, by 61-year-old former military/civilian special-operations soldier, Chris Winter.

Now’s the time for you to read it, absorb its goodness, decide you love it, and then write/blog/talk/shout about it. Thank you!

Surprisingly, there are no books on how to start the most popular and fastest-growing fitness routine in the world: CrossFit. Chris Winter’s book expertly fills that void in the world of CrossFit, general exercise, health and fitness.

Americans are stuck in the worst health crisis in our country’s history, due to poor nutrition, lack of proper exercise, overconsumption of prescription pharmaceuticals and recreational drugs, and improperly feeding an already unhealthy gut microbiome. The five leading causes of death unceremoniously claim our loved ones at an unprecedented rate each year. Heart disease took Chris Winter’s beautiful wife in the summer of 2018.

61 Is The New 41: Crossfit Yourself To Health And Well-Being has an ambitious goal: to remedy these and other health issues by showing people how to take the initiative and get off the couch, and safely begin a new exercise program. He also shows how to get better educated on exercise, nutrition and taking care of the most important organ system in your body, the mysterious gut microbiome. 

The book also spotlights more than 200 recent scientific and medical references to encourage further reading and research, especially on the gut microbiome and its connection to other organs and organ systems in the body. The results will shock and inspire you.

When thinking about those diseases, please consider an old-time naturopathic adage: “Disease begins in the gut.” While not popular in or recognized by mainstream medicine and science, recent research results are slowly uncovering the true nature of disease in humans. 

Call it a “gut check” for mainstream medicine and science.

61 Is The New 41: Crossfit Yourself To Health And Well-Being is not just for 60-somethings!

It also features the secret benefits of performing blast, burst, flash and shock Tabata exercises and adopting Olympic weightlifting for lifelong health. One of the chapters details a 27-step program for safely starting CrossFit, a secret recipe for lifelong success.

For the curious souls, there’s a lengthy chapter on the human subconscious, dreams and dreaming, and how you can use them as your mentor and guide on your CrossFit journey and throughout your life. Revolutionary!
