Muscle building and fat loss after forty aren’t nearly as complicated as you’ve been led to believe. You don’t need to: Obsess over “clean eating” and avoiding “bad” or “unhealthy” foods like sugar, meat, and bread. Some foods are just more nutritious than and should be eaten more frequently than others. You don’t need to: Spend a couple of hours in the gym every day grinding through punishing strength training workouts. Those are just a few of myths that keep people over forty from ever achieving the lean, toned, and strong body they truly desire.

Based on their workshops and counseling experience, psychologists Jane B. Burka and Lenora M. Yuen offer a probing, sensitive, and at times humorous look at a problem that affects everyone: students and scientists, secretaries and executives, homemakers and salespeople. Procrastination identifies the reasons we put off tasks - fears of failure, success, control, separation, and attachment - and their roots in our childhood and adult experiences.

BORING.
I get the point. Shut up. Train. Don't be a little b!tch. It's not motivating and his voice is monotone and mundane. I couldn't even finish listening to it.

Nothing groundbreaking
Hard to get through. The first 30 - 40 minutes phrases that start with “This book will teach you how to....” it would be nice if instead of telling me what I’m going to learn— just give me the information you have to disseminate and I’ll be the judge about what skills I’ve obtained. The author is terribly egotistical in his prose as much as his narration of the book. A solid 2 stars.

Definitely a ‘Re-listen’
Another great book by Mr. Matthews and necessary reading if you’re embarking on any new workout program. I purchased this first as a digital copy but realized the added benefit of the audio version to listen to during my cardio. I keep this book on ‘repeat’ to keep me focused and charged up. Michael as always relies on science backed techniques to maintain discipline not only to working out, but in all areas of life. His writes and narrates in a way that makes the information presented very easy to understand and digest. Strongly recommend to augment both ‘Bigger Leaner Stronger’ and ‘Thinner Leaner Stronger’.

The value per chapter is terrible
The book felt very drawn out where most chapters repeated the same mentality of shut up and do the work. The book could have been half the content and I don't think I would have noticed any difference.

Great if you love anecdotes
I found the tone towards the reader to be insulting in an attempt to establish themselves as an authority.
Claims to be science based but all I was hearing was anecdotes, and ridiculous conclusions (one of which was literally referring to mythology as if it were real - at one point celebrating the commitment it would take to sacrifice your own child to accomplish a goal. Insanity)
Or the story about how a golfer would practice until his hands bled - and kept going. That is the price to learn to really swing. Great advice. Overdo it, Injure yourself and don't let it heal.
Sciencey.

Awesome book
Today I was being lazy. While being in my nice cozy warm bed I decided to listen to this audiobook OMG it was just what I needed to get out of the funk I was in 😁 I put on my headphones continued listening and began purging my basement which I have put off for over a year. Finished in 2 hours went on my treadmill for 1 hour while doing the exercises then did 10 minutes weights all while listening to this book. Totally enjoyed it… thank you 😁❤️
