6/15/2004: Library Journal Review

By Michael Colford, Library Journal

Experience Life provides in-depth, practical information on health and fitness for those who are serious about working out and living healthfully. Glossy and colorful, it projects a no-nonsense, straightforward tone supported by facts. The issue examined includes several articles on New Year's resolutions, with suggestions for making them stick; other features discuss how to lose weight and keep your joints healthy. Departments are divided into four categories: "Life Zone" (events, news, and expert opinions), "Body Talk" (nutrition, fitness education, health, and beauty tips), "Skill Set" (food/cooking, adventure/travel, sports, and book/magazine reviews), and "Navigations" (wisdom, inspiration, stress management, and healthy living). Arm-chair fitness buffs will no doubt be put off by Experience Life's intensity, but those sincere about their health goals will find this the publication to read.
