Title: Living with a SEAL Pdf 31 Days Training with the Toughest Man on the Planet
Entrepreneur Jesse Itzler will try almost anything. He brazenly pretended to be an established hip-hop artist to secure a meeting with a studio head - and it led to a record deal. He convinced a bunch successful business executives to invest in an unprecedented business plan - and it turned into Marquis Jet. He sincerely offered to run a 100-mile race in Spanx to get the attention of the beautiful founder of the company - and ended up marrying her.
His life is about being bold and risky. And it's brought him plenty of rewards.
So when Jesse felt himself drifting on autopilot, he hired a rather unconventional trainer to live with him for a month - an accomplished Navy SEAL widely considered to be "the toughest man on the planet"!
Living with a SEAL is like a buddy movie if it starred the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air...and Rambo. Jesse is about as easy-oing as you can get. SEAL is...not. He even shows up at Jesse's apartment with an inflatable raft just in case the Itzler family ever has to escape Manhattan by crossing the Hudson River.
Jesse and SEAL's escapades soon produce a great friendship, and by the time SEAL leaves, Jesse is in the best shape of his life, but he gains much more than muscle. At turns hilarious and inspiring, Living with a SEAL ultimately shows you the benefits of stepping out of your comfort zone.
This will do until Goggins writes his own book First, the negative. I'm not crazy about Itzler's writing style. He tries too hard to be funny and a lot of the attempted humor doesn't work for me. But here is what I DO like about Itzler's perspective in this book: like the rest of us, Jesse is clearly, joyfully in awe of David Goggins.I'm a pretty crappy long distance runner, and when I first heard of Goggins I found it impossible to process his list of achievements. This guy makes the runners I know and admire seem as inept as I am. Reading his list of accomplishments is more like reading about a super hero than about an athlete. After a while it all runs together, just one jaw dropper after another. Any mere mortal would probably spend the rest of his life crowing about it if he had done even one of the things Goggins has done. Instead of bragging, David Goggins just moves on to the next challenge and crushed it (usually as part of a fundraising benefit for good causes).It is hard to conceive of anyone having this combination of strength, confidence, endurance, and patience.The book does humanize Goggins. He does share some of the flaws of lesser men. He is profane, he can be moody and unfriendly, and he carries a darkness wirh him. This isn't Superman. This is a human being, like anyone else, who just happens to be capable of super feats.On his Instagram page, David has made reference to a book he is writing. I'll buy it the day it is published. In the meantime, this book will do. Jesse Itzler is a David Goggins fan, like many of us. He just happens to be a fan who's life was transformed over a month he spent with the SEAL himself. The book is imperfect, but anyone who admires David Goggins should read it.This dude is outta his gourd Early in my reading of Bill Bryson's "A Walk in the Woods," I found myself thinking, "I should walk the Appalachian Trail!" A few chapters later, after learning of Bryson's hiking, sweating, and chafing experience, all I could think was, "Screw that. I'll stay indoors, thank you very much."I had a similar experience reading Jesse Itzler's informative, inspiring and hilarious fitness memoir, "Living with a SEAL."Itzler is a compulsively motivated human being who has achieved crazy success in entertainment, business, and fitness (to say nothing of marriage) by doing things others haven't thought of, view as contrarian or consider bat-shit insane. (is "bat-shit" hyphenated?)In LWaS, Jesse recounts the intense, month-long training hell he brought on himself by inviting a real-life Navy SEAL to live with him and his family. Early in the book I was thinking, "...maybe I should turn up the heat on my workouts and push the limits of my mind and body." Then I read about Jesse's torn muscles, hypothermia and bloody nuts (yes, those kind of nuts), and thought, "naaahhh."Indeed, Jesse holds back none of the grueling details involved in training with one of the world's most elite warriors and the marital complexities that arise when you host him in your family's apartment.Like SEAL, Jesse has one speed: 110% x 24 x 7. He's also a little bat-shit insane and a really funny writer. If you're into fitness and/or crazy people, you'll love Living with a SEAL.but beware the bad language. I didn't realize my daughter was looking ... I've been working a lot on "mindset" this year. My biggest takeaway was the idea that when you think you're done, you're not. I've applied this philosophy to my workouts and have been striving to do 40% more reps, reminding myself that although I may feel done physically, that's just my mind telling me to stop. It works! This book is hilarious, but beware the bad language. I didn't realize my daughter was looking over my shoulder and I heard "mommy, is that book real?" Me: Yes. "Mommy, what's a motherf***er?"
