About this listen

Drawing on his vast experience as the elite trainer who transformed Daniel Craig’s physique for five James Bond films, Simon Waterson reveals how to enhance your energy, sleep and confidence with his intelligent approach to fitness.

A former marine, and now the film industry’s most in-demand fitness trainer, Simon Waterson’s client list reads like a who’s who of A-list actors. He has transformed Daniel C raig into the formidable James Bond for five blockbuster films, shaped Chris Evans into superhero Captain America, trained C hris Pratt for Guardians of the Galaxy and prepared actors such as Thandie Newton and John Boyega for the recent Star Wars films. Sharing his practical and highly accessible approach to reimagining your body and transforming your fitness, Simon encourages you to focus on training, recovery and nutrition to build on your performance, rather than aesthetic. This is a training manual for any age and any fitness level, packed with expert advice and achievable goals that will motivate you to reboot your body.

“Without Simon Waterson’s help and guidance, I literally wouldn’t have made it through fifteen years of playing James Bond … It’s been an honour working with him.” DANIEL CRAIG

“Working with Simon is the nearest you get to actually being a superhero, in the sense you are at your absolute peak of physical health. That makes you feel incredibly robust in these challenging times.” BENEDICT CUMBERBATCH

Good clear and well described workout plans and a lot of general fitness and nutrition advice.

very instructional

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

The information and points in the book are basic but you can take something from it. Has good workout routines etc.

However, the narration is so bad and find it distracting. It’s like there’s punctuation in the wrong place when it’s being read. He’ll explain thiiiiiiings like nutrition, fitness, and, why, these, things matter. Ifyouwanttogethealthy and be the best……… version…… oooooof yourself?

Imagine everything being read like that. Words are strung out on vowels and end of sentences sound like a question? If you can get past this then definitely worth a listen as again the information is good.

Great info, terrible narration

Great insight into training, nutrition and clearly is at the top of his game. Very very good.

Very insightful and clearly an expert in his field

Really good book. The only thing missing is a short PDF with the exercises in it

Excellent

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

It took me a little while to get used to the delivery. But then as you progress through the book it quickly feels like Simon is taking you through his methods and experience in person.

Simon is the real deal, and from what I have gathered from the various interviews I’ve seen with him, a genuinely good guy.

He also gives you examples of what his clients actual work outs were. And what’s more he encourages you to try different ones to find what works for you. What’s more he encourages you to start where you are now, at your pace, but encourages you to push yourself too.

An excellent book worth the weight of several so called fitness books.
