Publisher's summary

Forget "losing weight" - you want to lose fat...and if you want to know how to do it as quickly as possible without losing muscle...and without doing hours and hours of grueling cardio every week...then you want to listen to this audiobook.

What if I told you that you could dramatically transform your body eating foods you actually like...every day...seven days per week?

What if all you had to do to lose fat and not muscle was follow a handful of flexible dietary guidelines...not starve and deprive yourself?

And what if I promised you could forever break free of the anxieties most people associate with "dieting" and make it something you can enjoy as a lifestyle instead?

Well, by the end of this book, you'll know exactly what you need to do to get a lot more out of a lot less exercise...and a lot more delicious food...than you ever thought possible.

Here's a "sneak peek" of some of the things this book will teach you....

  • The biggest diet lie you've been told (and probably believe) that makes losing fat way harder than it has to be.
  • Why "clean eating" is overrated and guarantees nothing in the way of losing fat and building muscle...and what you should do instead.
  • Five simple eating eating habits that keep you lean, healthy, and happy...without having to obsess over every calorie you eat.
  • How to use "fasted cardio" to lose fat...and stubborn fat in particular...even faster.
  • Seven powerful cardio workouts that will help you burn fat and not muscle in less than 30 minutes per day (and you don't even have to do them every day!).
  • And a whole lot more!

Buy this book now and begin your journey to a leaner, sexier, healthier you!

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your My Library section along with the audio.

Second book by Mike Mathews

This is my second audible book by Mike Mathews. I’m really enjoying his books so far and looking forward to reading the original; I guess I went backwards. The narration is enjoyable to listen the the content is not only simple and effective, but accessible to all types of people from all walks of life. I’m fortunate to have had access to this material.

Concise and comprehensive

I’m a big fan of Mike Matthews so this review might be biased but his material is top notch. The only thing that could’ve made this audiobook better was if it was him talking.

great book

seriously, the best book on cardio, diet, loosing weight, and not muscle, I've ever read. it has clear, science-backed, advise and rules to accomplishing all of the above mentioned things. plus it has some great ideas for cardio that aren't your traditional cardio. and if that isn't enough for you there is some awesome bonus material.

It works!

I'm a 30 year old woman & have already been doing some of Michael Matthews advice. I tried some things in this book new to me, so far it all works. I love the no nonsense, no drug, science backed, natural facts, food, & workout advice. It works. Michael Matthews is telling the truth. Im currently 24% body fat on my way below 20%.

He has done his homework

Any additional comments?

The ONLY complaint I could possibly think of was that he hints that the body immediately burns fat after digestion has completed, roundabout. The body actually uses glycogen stores in the liver as fuel for a while which could be up to 24hours or so depending on the person. Only after those stores are depleted the body then looks to break down fat. Also the calories in must be less than calories 'out' is still highly debated. The body will treat 100 calories of olive oil a lot differently than it will treat 100 calories of sugar. But those are nit picks. I did like the book a lot. Gave everything a structure and found new ideas for workouts.
