One-Minute Book Review

I Will Make You Passionate About Exercise: How to go from being unmotivated, unfit and lost, to having energy, being fit, healthy and loving exercise – by Bevan Eyles

What this isn’t: a “just do it!” motivational pep-talk.

What this is: a compassionate and thoughtful approach to help non-exercisers become regular exercisers, by looking at the real life factors of what holds people back (learning from his own early failures as a coach, by paying attention now to things he inadvertently neglected back then), both in the material/practical and in the psychological/emotional.

Further, he gives a 10-step method, for those who would like to be walked through it by the hand, making the transition to exercising regularly (and as a leisure habit, rather than as a chore) as frictionless as possible.

The style is friendly and energetic, and very easy-reading throughout.

Bottom line: if you are someone who finds exercising to be a chore, this book can definitely help you “get from here to there” in terms of finding joy in it, and finding exercise even easier than not exercising. Yes, really.
