Embarking on a fitness journey is not just about physical transformation; it’s a holistic process involving mental and emotional growth. One powerful tool that beginners often overlook in this journey is books.

In my exploration, I have found three transformative books worth reading for beginners —’ Not a Diet Book’ by James Smith, ‘Breaking the Habit of Being Yourself’ by Dr. Joe Dispenza, and ‘Built to Serve’ by Evan Carmichael— and those looking to expand their knowledge in their fitness journey.

‘Not a Diet Book’ by James Smith

James Smith’s approach to fitness transcends the conventional notions of dieting. In ‘Not a Diet Book’ is a refreshing perspective on health, nutrition, and fitness we all need to hear. Instead of advocating for restrictive diets or punishing exercise regimes, Smith emphasizes sustainable lifestyle changes. Beginners will appreciate his straightforward advice on adopting a balanced approach to nutrition, exercising effectively, and cultivating a positive mindset towards fitness. By debunking common myths and providing practical tips, readers become empowered to develop healthier relationships with food and exercise, which lays a solid foundation for their continuing fitness journey.

‘Breaking the Habit of Being Yourself’ by Dr. Joe Dispenza

Dr. Joe Dispenza’s book delves into the fascinating intersection of neuroscience, psychology, and personal development. While not solely focused on fitness, in fact has nothing to do with fitness, ‘Breaking the Habit of Being Yourself’ offers invaluable insights into the power of the mind in achieving transformative change. Understanding the role of habits, beliefs, and self-image is crucial for beginners in sustaining long-term fitness goals. Dispenza’s teachings on reprogramming the subconscious mind and cultivating a new identity align perfectly with the mindset shift required for a successful fitness journey, particularly a long-term one. The principles outlined in this book will help beginners overcome self-limiting beliefs, break free from unhealthy habits, and create lasting change in their lives.

‘Built to Serve’ by Evan Carmichael

Evan Carmichael is a motivational masterpiece that inspires readers to align their passion with their purpose. While not exclusively focused on fitness, Carmichael’s principles are highly applicable to anyone embarking on a journey of self-improvement. For beginners in fitness, discovering their ‘why’—the deeper purpose behind their desire for a healthier lifestyle—is essential for staying motivated and committed. ‘Built to serve’ encourages readers to embrace their unique strengths, pursue their passions, and positively impact the world. By connecting their fitness journey to a greater purpose, beginners can find the intrinsic motivation they need to overcome obstacles and achieve their goals.

Ultimately, we believe that books can be powerful allies in improving fitness and well-being. All three of these books offer valuable lessons and insights for beginners seeking to expand their knowledge and transform their lives. By incorporating the wisdom from these books into their fitness journey, beginners can cultivate a mindset of growth, resilience, and self-discovery that can lead to sustainable success and fulfilment.
