About this listen

*The No.1 Sunday Times Bestseller
Are you ready to change your life?

Are you sick of always wearing black and getting undressed in the dark?

Are you fixated with a number on the scales?

Are you afraid to step into the gym and commit to a routine?

Is your confidence at an all-time low?

Is all of this having a negative impact on your life, relationships and happiness?

James Smith is armed with every tool you’ll ever need to achieve incredible results – from dieting, training and staying in shape to identifying the fads, cons and nonsense that get in
the way of genuine lasting progress.

Learn to reset your current mindset and attitude towards your diet and training, with chapters covering:
• Fat loss versus muscle gain
• Metabolism and ‘body types’
• Protein targets and calorie tracking
• Common fitness fallacies
• Female fat loss
• Supplements
• Training versus exercising
• The importance of sleep
• Forming habits

This book will put you back in control. It is not a fad diet or a short-term training plan. It will empower you to adopt better habits that will allow you to take charge of your life.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Life Changing

If you read or listen to one book, make it this one. Improved outlook on career, body, sex life & thought processes. Will give you the info to create your own fitness plan without monthly subscriptions to industry charlatans! Still learned a lot even though I've followed on social media for years! #CFD #NeatUp247

Absolutely brilliant

This book was definitely not a diet book! It beyond surpassed my expectations and was surprisingly quite inspirational in addition to being incredibly informative. James certainly has a way with words to capture the reader and I was not bored even for a single moment (which is extremely rare for me). Bravo to James on an amazing book! I'm actually going to listen to the audible a 2nd time now!

Amazing !

I really liked this audiobook it was a real eye-opener to things I thought I knew, But it just re-confirmed everything and now I feel confident! One of my favourite parts of the book was when he was talking about “women” and training. It wasn’t something I actually thought about until now.
