(www.oculuspublishers.com) Visit the author’s website: www.muscleforlife.com Praise for The Little Black Book "Matthews has hit it out of the ballpark with this Little Black Book. This is not your typical ‘rah rah’ self-help book full of tired clichés. It’s a unique, meticulously researched, and compelling combination of storytelling, science, and practical tools and takeaways." —Ben Greenfield, CEO of Kion & New York Times best-selling author of Beyond Training: Mastering Endurance, Health & Life “This is a good, helpful, important book that establishes Mike as the Jordan Peterson of fitness. Any person who wants to train more effectively will benefit from reading it between sets, and will never give a copy to the guys he wants to beat.” —Mark Rippetoe, author of Starting Strength: Basic Barbell Training and Practical Programming for Strength Training “Matthews is a master of the mental side of fitness, so you’ll finish this book fired up to get to work—and, more importantly, with the practical tools you need to start your journey successfully.” —Alex Hutchinson, author of the New York Times best seller Endure: Mind, Body, and the Curiously Elastic Limits of Human Performance “The word ‘goal’ should be a verb, because a goal without action is just a dream. The Little Black Book of Workout Motivation provides all the tools you need to turn your goals into reality—and to never, ever feel ‘stuck’ again.” —Jeff Haden, Inc. contributing editor and author of The Motivation Myth: How High Achievers Really Set Themselves Up to Win “This book will challenge you, it will make you think, it will force you to go outside your comfort zone. It will help you build much more than motivation, but an inner drive to succeed so you can weather any storm.” —Marc Perry, CSCS, CPT, Founder and CEO of BuiltLean “Mike has already taught us how to be bigger, leaner and stronger—and it works. Now he teaches how to be BETTER in all areas of life. A concise, indispensable guide to fitness and effectiveness.” —Strauss Zelnick, “America’s fittest CEO” and author of Becoming Ageless: The Four Secrets to Looking and Feeling Younger Than Ever “I love Mike’s writing. Backed by a sh*t ton of research, crystal clear, and always actionable.” —Noah Kagan, cofounder of Sumo.com and AppSumo.com "Read this book and absorb and apply its wisdom, and your life will get better. It’s that simple.” —Mark Divine, founder of SEALFIT and New York Times best-selling author of The Way of the SEAL, Unbeatable Mind, and 8 Weeks to SEALFIT “In the charlatan-packed world of the fitness industry, Mike Matthews is a breath of fresh air. This book will inspire you and inform you with quality, applicable information that isn’t biased. If you want to improve your physique and your life, do yourself a favor and read The Little Black Book.” —Sal Di Stefano, cohost of top-ranked fitness and health podcast Mind Pump “Mike Matthews delivers another gem. The Little Black Book is chock-full of unbiased, evidence-based knowledge that you should not live without. A must-read.” — Adam Schafer, cohost of top-ranked fitness and health podcast Mind Pump
