Not a Diet Book: Take Control. Gain Confidence. Change Your Life.

Product Information

Not a Diet Book mercilessly takes down every fad diet, workout and health drink you have been sold and instead explains [James’] mission to make understanding weight-loss as two words – calorie deficit. I will probably have to get the book and read it to fully understand everything he talked about because it was so hard to listen too while walking. I think it will be someone, who is discouraged from having tried to lose weight many times and has many explanations as to why their efforts had not panned out. Simply put, for someone who is troubled or confused by any aspect of a fitness journey, this book is for you. You will come away from this book with a LOT more information, a much improved fitness industry Bullshit Detector, and a more positive outlook on your prospects for achieving and maintaining a lifestyle that works for you.

If you want a book that is going to get you annoyed and if you want to learn nothing but hear about how good this guy thinks he is then this is the book for you. He speaks my language, which, for the record, isn't ENTIRELY f-bombs, because my vocabulary is comprehensive and multifarious (and I obviously have access to Thesaurus. Then everything he talks about, it's like he is talking about how good he is and then has a come back for all the critics that are going to nay say about the thing he just talked about. James has poured his heart into the book and hopes that everyone that reads it can put it to great use.

Anyway, so I followed him for a while, and then I joined his academy, and was rocking it, but I'm a lazy wagon-falling bitch and so this is my kickstart to get back on that freaking wagon and ride it into the sunset. It gives you most of the basics and even gives you some important points from other non-fiction books like Matthew Walker’s Why We Sleep. I'm sure lots of young ladies will think he's brilliant and he'll conquer many bed posts because according to the the law of averages he reckons if I dislike him (which he wants) more WILL LIKE him. In his recent YouTube video, James talks about how he has become the Sunday Times’ Number One Bestseller.

This book is an equivalent of an attentive friend, who sits you down and tells you that you need to get off your butt (mate) and stop being a knob. Self-confessed disruptor of a billion-dollar diet industry, James is armed with every tool you’ll ever need to achieve incredible results from dieting, training, and staying in shape to identifying the fads, phonies and nonsense that get in the way of genuinely lasting progress. Not many people actually look at this even a little bit, they don't even acknowledge that the female body is different to the male body and that the monthly changes we endure have massive impact on so many things. However; I found out very fast that even though he wrote the words, it sounded like forcing a 12 year old to go read in front of his class.Don’t set goals on a scale but instead in progression on amounts you can lift or distance you can run over time. His first book ‘Not a Diet Book’ will equip you with everything you need to achieve amazing results from your dieting, training and habits. low; and how all of this is having a negative impact upon all areas of your life, relationships and happiness. It is just hammering home basic scientific principles - unfortunately a lot of “fitness advice” you’ve probably heard conflicts with the basic science. And they make the program ever more "simple" by taking all of the education and information out of it so you must rely on them for it to work.

I find him quite pretentious aswell looking down on ppl who stay stuck in jobs they 'don't absolutely love' you've just insulted most of people who work. Sometimes, life is about taking small steps instead of big, drastic jumps just because something doesn't work for us straight away. Cara Hunter's All the Rage (Penguin) once again held the Most-Sold: Fiction number one, as Adele Parks' Lies Lies Lies (HQ) climbed to second.Louise and James discuss the common pitfalls many people go through when trying to exercise, perhaps out of obligation or to lose some of that midlife spread around the middle, and they warn against the plethora of misinformation on the internet about nutrition and training. Being that I read a handful of the books James cites and whose lessons were paraphrased here (and often) some parts seem like collections of other peoples anecdotes. We are proud to say that balance app is certified by the leading digital health organisation, ORCHA, who review and approve health apps for the NHS and multiple national health bodies around the world. Now, more than ever, we are so often lost within a cycle of negativity - from comparing ourselves to others and doom scrolling on social media, to a paralysis of choice and chasing external gratification that does nothing to nurture authentic happiness.

Described by The Times as "one of the most sought-after personal trainers in the world", Smith is best known for his frank social media presence, which has attracted a significant following. Smith operates an online personal training business named "James Smith Academy," which creates online training plans for users. I would like to read a book that goes into that topic as the main focus rather than just a small chapter. He uses his own experience to reset your outlook and goals in life, and helps you to see what success really looks like.A lot of the book was rehashing stuff that I was already familiar with, having followed him and suchlike, but that's to be expected. Other than a few more other minor details I disagreed with I think it was a very great, simple way to explain calorie deficits, macronutrients, etc!
