The work of weight loss and this 'Job' you've NEVER been trained for is only going to happen if YOU decide to commit to the job at hand. This book does not contain another counterfeit attempt at the 'Secret Formula' for your weight loss success. That elusive formula is a fallacy.
What the author, John Ashworth, The Fitness Nomad offers in this book instead is the wisdom gathered over two decades in his work with clients, patients, and fitness enthusiasts desiring to improve their lives by losing weight and improving their health and fitness.

The idea that so many others possess the 'secret' to YOUR success is only a manifestation of the problem itself. The idea that if you could just find the right diet, the right fitness program, or the right combination of food for your blood type is a lot of nonsense and it needs to STOP.

All of this nonsense must STOP if the fitness industry is ever going to have any success in helping you achieve your goals. There are important strategies you MUST implement, but it is that implementation and ACTION that is the key to your success. That, in combination with the wisdom outlined in this book, and YOUR bonus access to The Fitness Nomad Wisdom Center online is what will truly help you succeed.

Remember, YOU are the real secret. The only question is whether or not you will take action!

About the Author:
The information age has created a VAST storage and stream of information, and the weight loss and fitness industry is NO EXCEPTION. Often, it is difficult to wade in these waters. Through his Fitness Nomad Report blog and his writing, John is committed to bringing you a steady stream of his thoughts, expertise, and insights on the topics of health and fitness and weight loss.

John and his clients honor the undeniable importance of fitness and health as an essential foundation for success in all aspects of life.

While in San Francisco, John also worked as a research exercise physiologist at the University of California, San Francisco Medical Center.

During college, John was an All-American Soccer Player and on his way to becoming a professional. However, following several knee surgeries, he re-focused his professional pursuit, and began working with individuals on improving their overall physical fitness and well-being, as well as those interested in lowering their heart disease and diabetes risk. John also has experience working with individuals recovering from, and trying to prevent injuries, especially back and knee injuries.
