Paleo Coach: Expert Advice For Extraordinary Health

by Jason Seib

Overview

The Paleo lifestyle has the proven potential to deliver remarkable health and fitness, and The Paleo Coach is not only an in depth look at the essential basics and real life application, but also the psychological obstacles in your path and the most common reasons that people fail. So often it seems that having all the right tools is not enough, especially after a lifetime of misinformation and frustration. While it is necessary to understand the intimate details of the path to your goals, a broken perspective will be insurmountable obstacle in your path. Understanding Paleo nutrition and the fallacies of "common knowledge" on health and fitness is a great start, but The Paleo Coach goes much deeper.
In The Paleo Coach you will find...
A clear and concise road map to understanding and implementing the Paleo diet in your own life
Detailed instruction on how to apply Paleo logic to exercise and achieve the physical capacity to enjoy your life
Multiple ideas for making these important changes at whatever pace works for you

Editorial Reviews

"The Paleo Coach is not just another Paleo book—it's a priceless tool that is absolutely essential for anyone striving to live the best life possible. The insight, advice, and lessons in this book could come only from someone like Jason, who has spent serious time deep in the trenches of the health-and-fitness industry. With his hands-on experience, understanding, and innumerable success stories, Jason reveals what it takes to look beyond the hype and focus on what really matters: your own personal path to health. Everyone should have a coach, and now everyone can. The Paleo Coach will change your life. Guaranteed."—Sarah Fragoso, author of the national bestseller Everyday Paleo

"Everyone needs a coach. Yes, everyone! When your car is broken, you take it to a 'car coach' (aka mechanic). If your plumbing is backed up, you call a 'pipe coach' (some people call them plumbers). Whom do you go to if you want to improve how you look, feel, and perform? A Paleo coach. Like Jason Seib. In the same way that mechanics are experts in what ails cars (and, most important, how to fix those cars), Jason is an expert in all things nutrition and strength-and-conditioning. He has learned his craft through years of research, trial, error, and helping people. Whether your goal is weight loss, being a top-level athlete, or just regaining enough youthful vigor to chase the kids or grandkids, I'd like to introduce you to the man who will help you meet your goals: Meet your new Paleo coach, Jason Seib."—Robb Wolf, author of the New York Times bestseller The Paleo Solution

"Let Jason Seib be the Paleo coach in your life to help you cut to the chase and get to the meat of the matter about becoming as optimally healthy as you can possibly be! His nuanced understanding of how to live like our hunter-gatherer ancestors in today's world of iPads, the Internet, and American Idol is sorely needed. Other Paleo books may promise to help you lose X amount of weight in two weeks, but The Paleo Coach offers you much, much more. Jason realizes that it takes a dedicated commitment to implement a lifestyle change and homes in on key principles aimed at delivering big changes in your weight, health, and outlook on life."—Jimmy Moore, Livin' La Vida Low-Carb Blog and Podcast
