A motivating advertisement

The book was motivating for the first three quarters. Sprinkled throughout was advertisement. Towards the end the author discusses making obstacle course reading an Olympic sport, and is very convincing in doing so. however the advertisement portion was tedious at times.

Aroo!

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Depends. If they are a Spartan Racer I would, but for a coach potato I might recommend Joe's previous book Spartan Up! first.

What did you like best about this story?

Well I got my triple Trifecta this year and raced in 10 events. I am 9th in the 60-64 age group so lets just say I am into the whole zeitgeist of the Spartan approach. This book provides good insight into what it takes to adopt this lifestyle and its benefits. Anyone can run a Spartan Race and you owe it to yourself to at least try one and find out what you are made of.

Which scene was your favorite?

I enjoyed Joe's explanation of the Agoge and the history behind it. Never knew that and it made me want to read The Road to Sparta by Dean Karnaze

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

I had heard the story of the disabled runner second hand. I particpated in an event with her in Penn. It was mind boggling to me to hear the story of what really happened to her. For this reason people should read this book, you will complain less about your own life.

Any additional comments?

American needs to get fit. Not just for the health benefits for our collective mental sanity.

Motivation to get you over that hump.

It’s like a master class in Goal setting. It’s a clear concise plan to push you over the hump and not over the edge. A different way of thinking to break the monotony of every day life.

Motivational

Would you consider the audio edition of Spartan Fit! to be better than the print version?

It's great to hear Joe tell the story himself but I am going to buy the print edition as well.

What other book might you compare Spartan Fit! to and why?

Spartan Up, Joe's first book was the Best!

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Love his philosophy.

Life changer

This book, along with Spartan Up!, are truly inspirational and life changing. I have read them both twice in one day. Each time learning more and trying to soak of the wealth of knowledge they provide. If you're looking for a book that offers real life advice as well as a program to get you into the best shape of your life while having loads of fun, this is it.
