About this listen
New York Times best-selling author Joe De Sena, founder and CEO of Spartan, the global health and wellness platform, leader in obstacle racing, and executive producer of NBC’s television show Spartan: Ultimate Team Challenge, challenges you to live the Spartan way.
Determined to yank 100 million people off their couch cushions to start living instead of being passive observers of life, Joe De Sena has one ultimate goal: to help improve everyone’s physical and emotional health by teaching them the tenets of Spartan living from ancient Greece: simple eating, smart training, mastering resilience, and an all-out commitment to achieving a goal.
Like Spartan training, living the Spartan way requires endurance to reach your finish line, the goal that inspires and drives you to succeed no matter what obstacles are thrown in your path. De Sena believes you can gain that endurance in just 36 days by following the 10 Spartan core virtues, timeless principles to help you embrace adversity and overcome any challenge, and making them a permanent part of your own personal core.
The Spartan core values include:
- Self-awareness - know yourself
- Commitment - be dedicated
- Passion - discover your purpose
- Discipline - practice diligence
- Prioritization - put your house in order
- Grit - push your limits
- Courage - face your fears and your failures
- Optimism - look for the positives
- Integrity - act honestly
- Wholeness - live as a Spartan
De Sena turned this philosophy into a lifestyle - and so can you. With The Spartan Way, you’ll discover your true north, unleash the warrior within, and transform your life to 10 times your maximum potential.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your Library section along with the audio.

I am Sparta
There are some great references to leverage. The book is honest & doesn't try to sell you some east path. in some ways it reminds me of the persona David Goggins embraced to become his best self.

Not quite what I thought it was
I got the impression from the synopsis that this book was going to teach you the ways and disciplines of the ancient Spartans. Maybe actions to test and improve your mental and physical grit. While the Spartans were referenced several times, I found a lot of the book to be about things that the Spartans would not have even thought about.
There were some really helpful pieces of advice in this book. However, it was easy to miss them as the author would go off on a tangent. I found this happened quite a bit during the book which made the chapters feel a bit disorganised. The book also switched between authors without much if any notice, and using the same narrator. This was quite confusing. I found myself having to repeat large sections several times to fully understand the underlying message. And having completed it, I’m still unsure if I got the full picture.
I feel the narrator was chosen for his “tough-guy” voice, not his ability to keep the listener engaged or entertained.
Finally, labelling the chapters rather than just numbering them would help for those who like to go back and re listen to specific chapters.
All in all, it was worth listening to and I would buy it again. It just could have been better executed.

Some of this information was useful to me
I find this audiobook hard going
Some of the information was useful but for me I feel it lacked compassion
It came from the toughen up school which has its place but to me that is only one aspect of the way forward
Still it was useful
Would have liked it to give it 2 1/2 stars
Also the presenter was off putting for me
