Fantastic

A great story with the right balance of fitness information, research and personal story.
Even better was having Vinnie narrate it because it felt like you really did have your own personal trainer.

A life Changing Book

Incredible! This book changed my life! I lost several pounds and gained so much of confidence and muscle. Vinnie's work is world renowned and this book is a bible of his mantra, NSNG which is a great and intelligent way of living.

I buy this book quite often as a gift for my loved ones who are just struggling with the confusing messages of the health industry. I just love it!

Vinnie Tortorich is a legend

I loved this. I am a long time fan of Vinnies podcast and I thought I had heard it all but this book has filled in all the blanks. I am now an even bigger fan

More of an autobiography ..

This book was more of an autobiography rather than a fitness instruction manual. Having said that the author(s) have done a fair amount of work to motivate individuals who are new to fitness.

A must hear Audio book!

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes, I definitely would. I loved every second of it, I could not wait to get back to it and keep listening. Vinnie is an AMAZING story teller. I was laughing a lot; he has the great sense of humour and one of the best storytellers! I would not mind listening to it again!

The information given in the book was wrapped in real life stories so you could relate to it and it was easier to perceive information.

All of them!

Great health advice, even better story

This book was great, it's much more than just a fitness book. It gave some easy to follow health and fitness tips, but the best part was Vinnie's story. The audio book was great, you got great value for money. I found myself laughing a lot. Would recommend it to anyone.

Gave up after 10 mins...

The first 10 mins was full of listening to Vinnie boast about how he massages his female client's breasts. Wasn't entertaining, funny or educational. Save your $$

It's a biography, not a fitness book


If you want to learn how to motivate yourself to be fitter, forgedaboutit.

Seems like a nice guy but the core audience seems to be very fat people who want to hear about how you get asked to massage newly fake boobs (tip: become a trainer to bored housewives).
