Real Strength Now: The Lost Art of Breathing

Real Strength Now, The Lost Art of Breathing, written as an easy-to-read memoir, is a holistic guide to better health. Written in La Plante’s usual raw, self-deprecating and honest style, the book chronicles his journey from a broken neck and a full body cast to a 3rd degree black belt in karate and a passion for strength training. Real Strength Now digs deep into various systems and methods of physical and mental training to locate and define the essence of all movement and exercise, and the single most neglected aspect of our health, mental and physical… the breath. Real Strength Now explores why we breathe, how we breathe, and how we can improve upon the way we breathe, adding health and longevity to our lives.
