GET SERIOUS

BY DR. OSBORN

A neurosurgeon's no-nonsense guide to building strength, sharpening your mind, and taking control of your health — before disease forces the issue.

By Dr. Brett Osborn, Board-Certified Neurosurgeon

Dr. Brett Osborn operates on the brains and spines of people who waited too long. Get Serious is what he tells them first — from a board-certified neurosurgeon, competitive powerlifer, and CSCS-credentialed strength coach.  Most strokes, heart attacks, dementia, and cancers are preventable. Medicine waits for a diagnosis. This book doesn't.  Eleven chapters on strength, nutrition, hormones, and the blood work that predicts outcomes — an operating manual, not a diet book.

“The truth is, most ailments of modern-day society are preventable.”

“There are no magic pills, none. At least none that will grant you long-term health and longevity.”

“I am not the ‘Do as I say—but not as I do’ physician. I live this life.”

“Your body and your brain follow the same rules. Train both, or watch both decline.”

I find myself in an interesting predicament. If people actually followed the advice in this book, my colleagues and I would be performing far fewer operations, and many hospitals would be forced to shut down because of a lack of customers. And that's fine with me.
