Interesting read - lacking some information

I was unable to download the accompanying PDF so I couldn't benefit from some of the essential parts of the book.

loved the audio

every bite of this book was excellent,well done..now I need the hard cover thank you

Inspiring!

Can't wait to get started on the program. I've already started with the water. And Im on day 3. For the most part Im already a clean eater, so eating wont be a problem. But getting back in the gym and working out everyday will be the biggest challenge! Looking forward to the challenge!
Thanks Mel

A must have

Melissa Alcantara is so real and just so raw with everything she says and does. It’s hard not to gravitate towards her content. The only downside is that she didn’t narrate the book herself lol! Lots of good info and insight as always, love this book!

Great content, not successful as an audio book

the pdf needs more content. she gives a lot of great instructions in the audio, these are not all reflected in the pfd. if the pdf was more inclusive, so the reader doesnt have to make their own notebook of notes, it would be great. its almost worth not getting the audio version for this reason, its not even read by the author. to sum it up great content, but the audio version is not user friendly. if you are serious about going on Mel's journey the physical book is prob a better option.

Audio does not include calendars

The book is great for people to start their fitness journey BUT it’s missing information.

Only con is that it does not include all of the material discussed in the book. Accompanying pdf does not include calendars which are vital to begin regimen described.

mels insta stories... in audio form.

it was kinda hard to listen to...

cause usually you hear mel on her stories on instagram, she's always yelling and yes positively yelling at people to complete their workouts.

in glad that she can motivate people, but I was wanting more activitiy type tips. it was mostly the same sentence repeated over and over again..."I don't give a BLEEP, giving them middle finger salute" deal...

I think I rather just follow her on insta and wait for a better book that focuses on the workout compared to this book

Highly recommend for anyone wanting to transform their bodies and minds

I have been working out for 17 years. This book makes it simple. Mel teaches you basic and fundamental nutrition and work outs. It’s easy to understand. And makes it simple (not easy 😉) to put into action. Thank you Mel for making this book. I will be doing your workouts. And cannot wait for the results and I will be using your mental tips along the way.

Annoying

This book is written for a low IQ. The narrator has the most annoying fluctuations in her voice. No point in using the F word in this book, unless you’re trying to sound cool. Not motivating unless you’re dumb.

Profanity Alert

If you enjoy continual vulgar language and teenage slang, this could work for you. I kept listening in hopes the content would be worth the constant distraction of profanity and teenage vocabulary, but I just couldn’t continue. It is hard to take anyone seriously - especially a proclaimed or self-proclaimed expert - when they speak like a young teen trying to impress their friends. There are a LOT of great books that guide you through the challenges of fitness without having to weed through the immature attitude and language.
