Publisher's summary

A timely new guide for masculine empowerment in a changing world

These days, we hear plenty about what’s wrong with men—like toxic masculinity, patriarchy, mansplaining, and male privilege. But how does a man get it right? “Men are being asked to adapt to our changing world, yet many still want to play by the old rules,” teaches Lance Allred. Now this former NBA star and leadership consultant presents a new game plan for evolving, growing, and succeeding in the modern era: The New Alpha Male.

Transform your game with the seven principles of perseverance

Having grown up in an ultra-patriarchal cult and succeeded in the gladiatorial arena of professional sports, Allred knows firsthand how the outdated model of masculinity works—and why it is failing both men and women today. “The old alpha male believes he is entitled to success,” he writes. The new alpha rejects entitlement, fear, and cultural illusions in favor of strong guiding principles that honor the virtues of the masculine and the feminine.

In this unabridged audio, Allred brings you a new “playbook for success”, delivering insights and practices based on the Seven Principles of Perseverance: accountability, integrity, compassion, discomfort, acceptance, transformation, and the final one-two combo of gratitude and forgiveness. The New Alpha Male is a bold, straight-talking guide for men of all ages who want to step up their game and become the sort of empowered, open-hearted leaders our world needs.

Critic reviews

“In an era when so many men are lost and disconnected from the true north and nourishment of a vulnerable manhood, Lance has written a book that provides a new map and compass that lead us back to the healing power of sacred masculinity. This trailblazing guide is essential medicine for our times, offering a new way to fully claim and embody all that we are as men.” (Robert Ohotto, intuitive strategist and bestselling author of Transforming Fate into Destiny)

“In a time when we desperately need it, Lance Allred uses basketball to speak reason to a polarized world. With his teachings on how to begin to play the game of life as a team, he brings a calming influence, and a simple approach that welcomes every walk of life.” (Andy Billman, director of Believeland)

“Growing up, many men learned a certain playbook on how to live life. Most of those plays are for an outdated system that only ends up hurting people today. In The New Alpha Male, Lance gives us the upgraded game plan for a fulfilling life. The rules are constantly changing, and he’s a great coach to learn from!” (Lewis Howes, author of The Mask of Masculinity and New York Times best seller The School of Greatness)

An Essential, Amazing Read For Men

In coaching men myself professionally, I can fully say that this book nails 100% the majority of issues most men face.

I love how Lance so eloquently opens up and tells his own story.

I highly recommend this book and it’s one that I’ll re-read each year.

A great book and a help towards charity for one’s self and finding ways to overcome obstacles we all live with.

Great book on self-awareness, understanding what it takes to become aware of your self as well as your purpose. Also helps to find those things that matter most in your life and making your life holistic.

Transformative

I needed this book! There are portions of this book that were difficult for me to hear - but they were difficult because I needed to hear them. Change requires an acknowledgement that something is wrong, that something isn't working, and that you need to address it.
I needed this book, and I'm glad I now have it.

Favorite book

I’m a woman but this helped me heal more than 15 years of therapy. Self reflection isnt gender specific. I just feel like it’s directed toward men because self help has a feminine stigma.

Powerful voice

Lance Allred has the perfect narration voice, for his own perfectly articulate words to discuss authentic communication. This book is for men and women, and highly recommend it for couples as I have been using it for my own relationship.

Bear Naked with Vulnerable Integrity

A heartfelt, poignant, engaging, and inspiring treatise on how to be human in a constantly evolving world. The narration is clear with a deep comforting voice. The story is both personal and transpersonal relevant to all people, especially men. We can rise from the transfiguration of the soul in this mortal work known as life to be kinder and heartier beings.

Powerful & inspiring read for all...so many golden nuggets

It’s clear Lance has dedicated his life to his personal work in returning home to his authentic self. He openly shares his triumphs & struggles in his journey coming home with a depth & beauty that I believe many of us on similar paths can only hope for all of our loved ones, ourselves included. In deep gratitude for the many tools he so eloquently shares to support others that are ready to transform their lives too. His is light is a gift to the world!✨
