Publisher's summary

Lean Health is the fountain of youth in a book. It opens your eyes to the most natural and simple strategy for aging in reverse.

If I were to summarize my entire book in one word, it would be Ferrari. The secret to excellent health - the answer - is to treat your body like you would treat a Ferrari. A Ferrari is the archetype of a sports car, one of the most precise and high-performance machines ever made. It is exotic, fast, agile, and beautiful. If you take the same care of your body as you would a Ferrari - using only the best fuel and regularly taking it to the best mechanic for maintenance - your body will give you 10 times what you put into it for the duration of your life. So ask yourself, "Do I treat my body like a Ferrari or a Pinto?"

Lean Health turns the lean model of success for your business...into success for your body.

Zumba and broccoli

Paul's energy is infectious. He's got me doing Zumba and eating broccoli! Both of his books made me think and make some changes.

57 and Need Motivation

Listening to Paul’s journey from “fat to fit” has inspired me to begin mine. I’m a 57 year old Retiree and need to get back on that train to a better lifestyle that includes moving more and eating better. The hardest part is the first 2 weeks. This will Not Be a New Years Resolution, it will be a New LIFE Resolution.

Life Change Made Easy!

Any additional comments?

A book that focuses on making the small consistent changes to your life that will have the most impact possible.

Having seen a ton of YouTube videos from the author I was already a fan prior to even reading the book. When I found the book online I rushed ordered it straight to my house.

Constant improvement is the message from Paul in this sit down and can't put it down book. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who has had struggles making the changes we know we have to make in our life.

Another life changing book by Paul A. Akers

Any additional comments?

I began my lean journey after I met Paul Akers several years ago. His first book "2 Second Lean, How to Grow People and Build a Fun Lean Culture" has transformed my business from struggling chaos to a successful enterprise. "Lean Health" has been a life changer. I was trudging through life like an overloaded airplane struggling to gain lift. My latest weight loss has allowed me to be more agile, feel better and live a healthier life. This book is read by Paul A. Akers himself. In the audible version you will hear his passion, his humor and his dedication to this lifestyle. I highly recommend this audible version.

Relatatble, Doable, and Practical!

If you could sum up Lean Health in three words, what would they be?

So many of these are written for young people and/or people who do nothing but write and exercise. I found this book very helpful because, like me, he owns a business, travels for work, is over 50, and has struggled with food. The chapter the has on the lies we tell ourselves about food and fitness alone is worth reading the book. The book is written for someone who still pursues challenges, not an aging-gracefully book. He actually has workable suggestions for eating when you have to travel with your job. This book contains many items that are immediately applicable and he has great insight into what drives overeating. Best book for 50+ that I've ever found.
